Hey, names Steve and I'm from "western" Mass. I live in West Warren but used to live in Wilbraham most my life.
Recently I just purchased a 1994 F-150, single cab, 5.0, 4x4, 5spd. The truck needs some work before I get into lifting it like I want, but till then I have my Jeep.
Always a Jeep fan adn always will be. Actually used to brag to all my friends about how much I hate Fords til I bought this one really cheap and know how much "easier" and "cheaper" it is to work on my current off-roading vehicle.
2005 Grand Cherokee Laredo- 4.7L V8, 4x4, 3.5" lift and 31" Kumho M/Ts.
Don't underestimate this suv, it can do a lot more than people think, love it, but parts are more for this than almost anything, especially after going through 2 transfer cases, an engine, 4 drive shafts, 7 hub bearing assemblies, 2 water pumps and a radiator within 2 years... and yes, i did everything but the motor myself.
Looking foward to getting my Jeep back to a daily and maybe being happy to represent a Ford soon

thanks for all the welcome and hellos.
Definitly plan on going to a few meet and greets once the trucks on the road, unless I bring the jeep with a red R
.
Truck runs great but I need things like steering parts (tie rods, bushings etc), oil pan and to fix up the exhaust, since its rusted through. started welding it back together but the damn rain ruined my efforts, but at least it's connected and hanging on its own. And I want to replace all fluids and seals. Truck seemed to be leaking gear oil for a while and I guess the previous owner never cared, so ill just do safety measures to replace it all.
Other than that the truck seems decent, fixed the speed/odometer with just a fuse, and it's got 182,000 on it, not bad for a 94 I suppose.

David and Al,
Just another welcome n howdedo!
If U go off rd (I know it's not next door) every Sat they get together here to pic a trail..off they go.
Don't 4 get the Chapter B/S thread (thru Don) and the model/componet specific pages here. As BK might say we got a big "sand box" here. I hang out @ the bronk and sm6/big6 pages and when havin trouble - component specific pages (helped me rebuild my carb while back)!
