Very fortunate. I think they started using more enviromently safe i.e. easier to get off than in the old days. Good looking belly by the way.

Nice work.
Is it hard on the sensors to be grinding while still mounted? Matt

Looks great, mine are silver and I love them.
Something to consider though, right now the time and $50 don't really matter, are you gonna have heartburn every time you look at them in the future cause you wanted black?

No, I won't get heartburn, but the $50 savings did matter to me. Any time I can get 1/3 off on something, that makes me happy, so I'm over it. My original vision of this Jeep was for it to have nothing shiny on it, and anything not body color would be black, except the engine, which I've already decided would be Hemi Orange. With my black Duster, I had lots to polish, and hated it.
I've finally decided on the body color. I orginally thought I wanted some kind of copper color, but like many other things, plans have a tendency to change. So, here it is, its a factory '99-'03 Jeep color called Intense Blue. Interior will be some shade(s) of gray.

Dan, nice job getting all of the parts to play nice with each other! I know it wasn't easy getting the head gear sorted out. As always, thanks for posting the pics!

Dave, no big deal. all in a days work.
here's the block in the F67A square decked and a light cut on the end rails. this is one of the most squared blocks i've seen in a long time. it was only .0035 off of 45 degrees from the cam crankk centerline and less than .007 difference from end to end. you'd be amazed how far off some blocks are.

Yep, 15 miles NW of Tallahassee. I thought about the shipping cost but I guess it would still be cheaper than the gas. Might couple it with a trip to Ocala or Old Town. I'll contact you directly and let the thread stay on topic. Thanks Dave for the intro to Dan. Sorry for the mini jacking.
