yes 7.3l, regeared to 4.56 when i bought it about 10 yrs ago, its the ZF 5 spd manual. I mean itll run 90++, but idk how long you wanna hold it over there. Im just spoiled now with this Cummins HO, the Ford feels like a giant turd, given the OBS weighs 9500lbs and is riding on 37s and the Cummins is 6200lb+- a hunno and on 35s.

5 speed manual
It felt like a terd compared to my Duramax
Except for towing I never started off in first gear,
because it was so low.......felt like it would have
pulled a house though

Not a good morning.  I got home from the gym at 6:15 this morning and parked in the driveway behind my wife's side of the garage.  Forgot she was leaving at 6:30 to take the dog to the vet.  See where this is going?  Yes, she back right into the steel bumper on my JK.  2011 Grand Cherokee now needs a rear bumper plus paint.  I saw a dent in the tailgate as well that will need to be fixed.  Not sure if that can be PDR but not holding my breath.  $%Q#$^%

Damn Mike...didn't you have a similar thing last year?
