i finally settled on a 2.5" lift. it was between bds, rubicon express, and ome. i bought the ome today. :D

also, i have been fighting internally over buying a v8 for my jeep (well, internally and cristina was also fighting against it) because i am really cheap (pinche) and couldn't get myself to throw down 500 bucks for an engine when all my stuff is good. i have been talking with the guy because i help him work on his trucks and its in one of his vehicles he was going to part out, he offered it to me first at a greatly reduced price (500 for the engine, trans, and t-case and the engine is complete from carb to pan to alternator and power steering and air conditioning stuff) i told him i was having issues with the money because 1) i don;t like to spend money like when my stuff is good, and 2) the wife said if i spend that much on me, she wants the same amount. he laughed and said he knew, his wife was the same way. has a bunch of coach purses and expensive shoes and junk she never uses. i said me too, cristina has 8 juicy coture purses and every color of jessica simpson heels and all kinds of jewelry. he said how about you give me half in a few weeks, then half a few weeks after that so the wife doesn't want so much at a time. i said serious? he said sure, because i help him mess with his trucks and help him on the computer and stuff.

so, i am getting my v8 swap and lift!!!!!!!:D:D:D:D:D:D

It will be about a month till I can get everything and probably till summer till I can swap. Right. Ow I have to drive the kids to school so the jeep cannot be down Monday to Friday and this might take more than a weekend to do, ha ha ha

Note to self - keep my wife away from superj's wife. She has been known to make a run on a handbag or two.

$500?! Totally jealous. That's a total score.
 

i couldn't believe it when he said it. he has had the bronco since the 90s and over hauled the drivetrain completely and then took it to his ranch to check on the cows.
