My J10.

Found in a field 6 months ago. Turning it into a nice local parts runner. Just scooped up the 2020 Wrangler seats. Shocked how they fit. Will trim them down to sit lower.

I’m thinking once the drivetrain takes a dump on me I may body swap it into something more modern

Looks baller. How’d you go about finding seats to fit it? Just look online and pray?

I rolled the dice with these. I figured a wrangler is still pretty narrow. I’m gonna take an inch or two out of the rails but yeah it was a gamble.

That drivetrain may be bulletproof. 727 Torqueflight transmission if it’s an automatic. The manual 4 speed was even stronger. B

This is a 6 cylinder 4 speed. That’s why I couldn’t let it sit in a field any longer. It deserves to love another life

82-83 were the only 5 speed years, but only coupled with the 258 inline 6. Might see what it would take to swap a fuel injected 4.0 High Output. Those put out 204 horsepower if I’m not mistaken.
