engine is a 1994 that needs a rebuild it is blowing oil 215,000 mile
trans will be a mercedes G56 six speed 4x4 with a gear vendors od and a 205 transfer case
front end is 1993 style with all chrome grill
but anyway big questions is
1994 engine is complete with turbo and pump all needs rebuilt
my goal is to build a high reving twin turbo p-pumped fire breathing smoke throwing torque monster and get good milage while i am at it
