No it wasn't the PFN..... It was a mechanic I have used since I was 16 and that my family has used for over 30 years...... And I know there is a SFA section..... The point is I am taking the easy way out and just getting a JK :D I am going to miss the libby but she has had her time and her fun

yeah gonna order a pretty much bone stocker and build it the way I want eventually.... Not sure if I am going for a JK or a JKU just shopping around getting pricing together and abusing salesmen (I used to be in high end sales so I shut down the BS games REAL quick)

Anything wrong with the CRD or just tired of it and wanting to get into something different?

Why don't you sell that lift before you take the plunge?

it is a 3.7L I just have a CRD lift in it...... and it would be easier to say what isn't wrong with it than to spend a couple days explaining what is wrong with the engine..... the least of the issue is the head gaskets
