The video is nice, too:

That 55 has a 4BT in it. I do think it is Ige's brother. His had a 4BT.

that, is indeed, me. Broke my motor mounts that year coming into Buck Island lake.

Wow man, I’ve held on to that issue of 4WD&SU since the early 2000’s just because of that pic. Always wondered if I’d ever meet the guy and see that 55 in person. We must have you at our next Pig Party!

Tried to do the 2017 PP but had problems. Might have busted the axel housing there instead of at the top of my driveway.

 

[RUSH55]

You running stock housings? What drivetrain in that rig?

 

[arthog]

In the Rubicon pic, stock 55 axels SOA 2F. Now 60 axels SOA, 4BT, 38mm split case, ARBs. In the pic with the broken axel housing, it was the cut & turn weld that broke after 25yrs.

 

[RUSH55]

Guess you can’t complain too hard about 25 years of Rubicon duty.
How do you like the 60 axles and diesel compared to the 55 axles and 2F, you know, when stuff isn’t broken?
What trans BTW? SM420 or 465?

 

[Devils Paw 80]

Yeah. Sold new in Arkansas and never left 30 mile radius of the dealer.

I’m going to get the pleasure of polishing it before I take applications for adoption.

Nice. I like that color combo. How many pigs currently in your pen?

sucks about that axle....but sidebar...what side mirrors are those?

 

[wngrog]

Has to snap this out of the Haynes manual

 

[RUSH55]

Ahhh yes...

 

[scrapdaddy]

Do you think it is a green one?

 

[RUSH55]

Odds are in its favor

 

[J Mack]

Do you think it is a green one?

I don't see a bunch of guys holding hands in the background so my guess is red and white.

 

[scrapdaddy]

Damn!
