Plain lift, 33" mudders run at low pressure, lower transfer case gears, hard axles, 1.6 engine, lockers. The best part of owning it was teaching my grandsons how to drive a stick.

I have found a couple of weather balloons. One was still in pretty good shape and had a pouch inside that was to be used to mail the instrument part back.
