why....?, just buy new ones that don't contain 40% mud from a boneyard or get some after market ones..... those will never be nice ever again

I bought it to turn a quick profit not really into the mud scene anymore after i broke and sold my old jeep.
Replaced serpentine belt, driver side motor mount, both tie rod ends, front end alignment, all fluids just changed and replaced air filter. Two new 4-way pioneer door speakers, those mossy oak seat covers and steering wheel cover, 2,000lb 12 volt electric wench, 140 piece tool set and a 2-ton jack with jackstands.
and a partridge in a pair tree

the only thing wrong with it that i see is a crack in the power steering box, found one at the junkyard for $107.

other than that it's got some left over mud underneath, still sick from the last time i took it to a carwash with a creeper and a presure washer or else there would be no mud :) very strong running motor and tranny. It's a 300 straight 6 with a c6 tranny. 147,xxxk original miles. Kids parents owned some shop and bought him bran new rims and tires for xmas he sold it to me to buy some pos ragged out 4x4 nissan
