The Trooper/Blazer I call Blooper.

How many of you knew that rebuilding motor mounts was even a thing? I am kind of surprised at how nice this chassis really is. When I did restoration, I worked on a lot of gray market stuff from Europe. Everything was rusty and dirty. I've driven this truck for years in the desert and it's fairly clean and mostly rust free. I pity all you Easterners who have to deal with aggressive rust issues.

Regarding the 6 or 8 lug... you're this deep, I say go 8 lug because why not.

Have they lost their minds? Must be made from billet Inconel or normalized meteor.

I'm not going to lie. I'm pretty proud of myself for getting the tank back in by myself. Only a couple small scratches and it went in with a ratchet strap and a floor jack. Anyone who has done one of these knows they can fight you. Especially with a trailer hitch.
