In 1999, I bought a barn kept, 86 cj7 with 40k miles from the original owner. He only drove it once a year to his hunting cabin so it was a great find for me. Over the years, I have lifted it to sit on 33s and hired a "mechanic" to replace the 4 cyl with a 4.0 from a 91 Cherokee. The conversion did not go well and I am finally getting around to a rebuild and reconfiguration that should make this a solid Jeep. I am doing it myself so there have been plenty of learning opportunities along the way. I am located in the North Dallas suburbs and look forward to encouraging others to jump into the project obsession.
