Questions?? Plz move if need to

[trijjicon]

1) Which first? Warn Winch or a rear locker?
2) If winch, would 8000lb b acceptable?
3) Will a upfront winch & a tow bar b a problem?
4) If a locker, how do I verify that's a Dana 44 in the rear? (do I need to know how many splines, if that is a concern on this Jeep)
5) that knob to the left of the dashboard light (in the center of dash)...it's disconnected...is that a throttle cable...to hold throttle at a set point kinda like I saw once on an M38A1.

Personally, I would do a winch first. You know that will get you out of anything. I have also seen plenty of jeeps with a tow bar and winch.

As far as if you have a D41 or D44, it is pretty easy to tell. And oval shaped diff cover is a D41. If the sides are vertical, then you have a D44.

I'm not following which knob you are talking about, but if it is just to the right of the dash light, that is the choke, and the one just to the left is throttle. Bubba could have been in there and could have changed them up though.

Thnx Nate: I'm siding with u on the winch. That was my thinking also. I got my Jeep back today from the shop, so I'll shoot a photo of the knob I'm talking about & a shot of the nice re-upholstering job on the seats. I'll take a closer look at those Danas. Was very plzed with the test drive.

Ok--1st photo is shot of knob (to left of dash light)...2nd shot is where my ignition key is (to the far left of driver seat...3rd shot is what I think is a rather nice upholstery job.

The one next to you ignition switch is probably the headlights and those are unoriginal choke and throttle cables, so you'll have to trace them back and see what they are.

Seats look good.

Glad u like the seats. Hmmm---"unoriginal" on the throttle & choke. The choke works but that throttle cable was disconnected. Good to know anyways. TY
