I have spent over three years redoing this jeep. I have been burned several times with so called mechanics and sutlers of parts. I hope some of you out there have had better luck than I have with trusting people with their word in doing the things most of us cannot do such as engine and axle rebuilding. Best thing I can tell others in this hobby if a price sounds like too good of a deal on work or a part usually it is and you will get your heart broke in the end. This happened to me at a cost of 3100 dollars buying an engine that was a shake and bake job that crapped out on me with rods knocking at 600 miles. This engine was supposedly guranteed from a family buisness of WW2 Jeep engine rebuilders and suppliers out of Toledo, Oregon. Once I informed them of the problem I was quickly rebuked and have yet to hear from them again. When I get that engine rebuilt after I paid them for a rebuilt engine it will have cost me aound 7000. Their are legitimate suppliers out their that are a little more expensive. I found their stuff and their word is not crap. Best of luck out their to the rest of you jeepers I look forward to getting mine back out on the road soon.
