Faults:

Nothing mechanically.

The bench seat does have a bad split in it and sags a bit, but that was like that when I purchased it.

General Comments:

The engine has heaps of power.

The pick up rolls along very smoothly, stable and solid on the road.

In 4 wheel drive, with the stock width tyres, it really does go almost anywhere.

A small gripe is the short distance between steering wheel and driver, even with the seat all the way back.

These trucks are meant to be used as a work or serious off road use, not like the new era of designer "all terrain" cars, good only for getting out of slushy driveways and posing at the latte bars.

This Jeep is a excellent rig!

When I bought the Truck off of this old man it seemed alright. When I got into my shop, I discovered it still had the original rear brakes on it. Of course they were toasted after 98000 miles. I replaced the rear Shoes, Hardware, Wheel Cylinders, Axle Seals, and axle bearings because they have to be pressed on anyways, so I figured I might as well.

I'm currently replacing all 8 of the front control arm bushings, lots of fun:). I'm anxiously waiting the day when I can go faster than 60 with out my front end vibrating out from under me.

I'm thinking I might have to replace the oil pump soon because it takes several seconds longer than most other cars to develop full oil pressure.

I'm also replacing the valve cover gasket because it's leaking oil all over the left side of the engine and leaving puddles the size of a half dollar every where I stop. ah.

Oh yea. I almost forgot. I had to order new Leaf Spring Shackles from the Jeep dealership, mine were rusted though to the point where I could stick three fingers though the center of them. Scary feeling if they broke on the road. The entire rear axle would fall out.

General Comments:

I installed a custom gauges in the blank spot between the instrument cluster and the radio. A water tempurature and oil pressure gauge.

I also installed my own radio because the original Jeep's light's went out in it. I got a Pioneer 5500. It's sweet, it plays mp3's and wma's, as well as radio.

I'm still getting used to the bench seat and leaning the trick to getting in it. I got used to my 93' Ford Escort. It sits much lower to the ground than my Jeep does.

Faults:

Little rust on the bed.

Leaks a lot of oil.

General Comments:

This truck has been very reliable. It handles like a dream.

The seats are a little on the stiff side, but overall the interior has great leg room.

The gages and interior switches are all well lit and well within reach.

The engine does require a little tender loving care, but if you keep up on regular maintenance she will last you a good 200,000 miles or more.

Overall the few parts that you will need to replace in the trucks life are minimal compared to the trucks they make today.
