But it's a 6-speed!!!! who cares that its a manual? must be really nice to drive a 6-speed jeep. I've never driven a six speed manual anything.

I am kinda curious though about what gearing this thing has and how long the d35 will last on 35's

True, a six speed tranny is pretty neat. I foresee that 35 lasting foe eva!

The gearing of the 6 speed is awesome, lots of punch in first, not to mention low range is extra low! Gear ratio is stock, before I installed the 35s I was certain I would have to re-gear, but driving it and realizing the gearing is near perfect And for the D35 I believe it will last you a long time, unless you totally hammer on it. I also build a TJ with 35s and D35 rear and that thing hasn't given at all. Why overbuild it, if it breaks, rebuild it Anyhow, this MJ is one cool rig, I got too many other project going on. And hey, did I mention that this is the very same MJ that was featured in the "six shooter" story in JP Mag?!

$6000?!?

:smoker:???

Good Luck With The Sale Man.

 

[IslanderOffRoad]

why you asking?

Because the one in JP couldn't get it to work with an 89 due to the cable speedo. I'm curious if you found the work-around.
