Much like a lotus, it sheds parts as it ages, making it lighter... and faster... more capable..... also a safety feature; when it rains you get soaked, reminds you to slow down

The unibody rails look good though. I can't wait to see how bad Stan is when I get home.

yea they're solid. Fixed a bit of the lip that holds up the floor pan in the front but that's it.

Chassis saver makes it look prettier

take a trip to a couple junkyards - any Cherokee with a 5 speed in it will have the correct gear ratio and will bolt right in. You can pick one up for around $150 complete.

I second that. It will, in the end, be MUCH cheaper to swap in a C8.25 than to rebuild the turdy-5.

I would help with the swap....and the fact that you have been looking for maybe 2 hours...says you give up too soon young grasshopper.


If nothing else, check http://www.car-part.com
