Smile Disco #2...

Still not sure what I was thinking, but I bought another DII last night. It's a 2001 w/. 67K. It is ready for the trail: ARB bar front, Warn 9K#, Kaymar rear, ARB lockers, OME Heavy duty springs and shocks, OME steering stabilizer, SD rack, 4 spread beams, 2 pencil beams, dif guard, RN sliders, RN ladder, ARB snorkel, air compressor, and seat heaters for my wife so she doesn't complain about it...

No pics yet, but they will come! First things first though... Once it is at my house, I will have to do Mike's 60K first. So, I will be ordering the magnecores, Bosch Platinum 4+, AT filter, and lots of nice and clean fluids. Heck, I may even go all synthetic...

Exciting times!

It was good enough of a deal to make the decision. Main reason for buying was the low miles and all the add-ons. Those are worth 10K by themselves. This car will be going places...

I will have to add the cables from the bar to the rack (limb rises?) and weld some hidden safety boxes under the car. Change the front drive shaft. Add some communication equipment and I will be ready for a round the world trip

Somebody pinch me please! I need to wake up...

Don't pinch him until I have a chance to steal that truck.

Last time I thought I saw an elephant I had to remind myself I was visiting my girlfriend's mother.
