You need to organize a work day! We have been known to swap out an engine and have the truck back on the road within hours!

Yes, these guys do very good work in a very short period of time.... Posted Image

So sorry for the long periods of silence in this thread. In my defence I haven't checked my email or been to Facebook in about 3 months LOL.

Well we have been working on the moter when ever time allowed for me and my help of the day. Thank you BillyD, 2002jeepguy, and others that helped so much!!!

Heres a few more pics of the progress. Really ayy thats left is to buy Plugs and wires, oil and filter and new fan belts.

Then we cross our fingers and turn the key!!!
