Yes the whole right side needed replaced.

Not FSJ, but my Metric Tonne Comanche towed my parts Grand Cherokee part way up Steven's Pass yesterday to the shop I'm taking it apart at so the NV242 can go into my '84 J10 and make it mobile enough to get back to town for parts in case the axle or trans swap on the MJ goes wrong. The AW4 didn't like it too much (it's been super heated twice that I know of due to a new rad with factory clogged cooler)

Looks about the size of my trailer, but it's just a bare frame right now. I want to build it with fold away sides and adjustable roof for different projects (like the one I designed when I was working at Alpenlite as an assembler)

Just picked up an inexpensive parts truck for another project. Other than the blown motor and the rust in the bed, the parts truck is actually in better shape!
