I usually take a look at what you guys have for wheels on the website - must have missed them or thought they were part of the Sawtooth lineup. They seem like they would work well for the ultra clean street oriented builds.

Just got an email from AB about these 18x9 forged wheels: https://www.roverparts.com/wheels-tires/alloy-steel-wheels/GB18K5/

Nice little walk through from Hoovie. I'd be interested if he ends up buying one and if he does I hope he gives it a test through his mini off road course at his house.

I am in the process of finally converting my 3 door 110 to a 5 door crew cab and I'm selling off the extras. The tub isn't perfect but I did a lot of work years ago including forming and welding new sides to enable use of Puma 3rd row seats. Post fabrication I had the inside LineX at a local...

I was surprised by how soft he was after his response to posting on D-90 source years ago while being a youtube person. I don't think he was treated any differently than anyone else that posted similar questions or remarks but he has complained about it a number of times on his channel and...

Very good news to hear that it is very clean. BTW - Cummins has a 14% sale going on for the week LOVE2024 code if you need another gasket.

MountainD - thank you! (I was out of town and seeing this now hence me posting days later) I have the long bell R380 with my engine very close to the steering box so pretty close to as far forward as it can go I think. Besides the strength of the aluminum I am hoping the increase in capacity...

I don't mind at all - and would really appreciate the measurements! Is the R2.8 starting fine in the cold or is it in hibernation for the winter?

Bummer! I am going to start breaking my 110 down for paint and have been thinking of doing the same engine mounts that you did while I have everything apart. Adding to that list was a swap from the plastic pan to aluminum so this is good timing. I think my engine is mounted higher so I may be...

I'm with you on the metallic grey but I have a friend in town that has an Arles Blue NAS that's a little faded and scratched and it looks just right 👌. I think the greens do that as well - they get that dated look as JimC said as they get used. 90's also don't have that much surface color area...

That was my guess with the Wrangler chassis. Ample axle and suspension configurations available so I can see why they go that direction. And they must be using the body kit that bolts onto the Wrangler chassis (the brand name is escaping me). I'm sure it drives great and the workmanship looks...

My friend just sent me this pic. On first look, it's nice and clean and I like the softtop and half doors. But then the 8 lug axles and it seems it's on a completely different chassis. Then of course the LS swap. The interior is completely different including the dash (and not just to the...

Thanks for the info @rocky. Agree that an 18' would help balance the load out - even with the 110 there isn't much wiggle room. I can get away with it because it's overall a light load and I'm towing with a Ram 2500 6.7 CTD but if I went a lighter truck I would want the trailer balance dialed...
