Re: Engine / Transmission swap - explain it to me like I'm 5

hjl, please post some pictures, let's see what you got... ALWAYS like to look at Blazer/Jimmy pictures, as well as trucks, cars, planes, girls, guns, boats, motorcycles.....
Here's my rusty 2wd Jimmy the first time I took the top off. NOTE: I think the roll bar looks goofy in the 2wd., jus' my opinion... I backed the Jimmy under my lift and strapped the top to the bottom of the lift. I put the lift all the way up and it lifted the top off, then I set the top on my pop-up so I could move it around.
Oops, just noticed my avitar picture show the roll bar better than the one I posted if you click it
