    Is there any expedition willys out there?

    I still have my 1953 3A I bought in 1969. The only way to get more power from a flathead is to replace it.

    Shock Question Again

    Research the Rancho 9000 adjustable shocks. They are made in USA and come with a lifetime warranty. I like mine. You cannot find many bad reviews.

    My OME shocks failed just when the warranty ended. Two of the four gave it up. I would estimate they lasted 25,000 miles. I have switched to the Rancho 9000 adjustable shock. They have I lifetime warranty. We will see how they last.

    Living inside vs beside

    Build quality satisfaction?

    58,000 miles on mine no problems. I have been to Utah, Arizona, Idaho and Washington. The only thing I feel may be light duty is the suspension. The stock springs would not support my load more than 6 months.
