Hey there!
Just bought a '90 GW this weekend. My wife & I are big into Jeeps, this is our first Waggy, we have a '46 CJ2a, '58 CJ3B, '79 CJ7, (all basically stock) and a modified '85 CJ7 - we also have two J10 trucks a '82 stepside and a '82 longbed - I plowed this past winter with the stepside, the longbed is in goodshape & I picked up for cheap. However, I bought this GW with hopes of selling the J10's I have a F250 SD for work that I can use for home too, so I don't need another truck, and I'd rather plow next winter with the GW. We had put the Skyjacker softride full suspension lift kit (all 4 springs) with pitman arm on the stepside J10 & we are going to move it over to the GW. Tried to sell the stepside on Ebay but had no luck - anyway I'm sure you are all confused. Anyway, we are really happy with our GW - needs some paint, but I like the 360 vs. the J10's 258 & it has power EVERYTHING that all works, certainly is a steep departure from all the CJ's we have - will do a great job pulling them to the trails! (and will do a fine job on the trails itself I'm sure) Anyway, I'm sure you'll see me posting every now & again.

I was watching your auction for the stepside. Too bad you didn't sell it, but then again you've got a nice truck to restore if you're so inclined.

The 258/6 is a good engine, and I bet with an updated fuel injection system you'd be just as happy to have it as a 360.
