    Nice pic.
    Question. Those front tires. Defenders?? How old are they?? You might want to check the date code. We use to sell them but they were discontinued quite a few years back up here. Had a set on my last Jeep probably 10 years ago. Still produced in US??:huh:

    well how did you do? I also live in the buckeye state. I havent been able to get up to norwalk yet but Im always hopefull. I do often go to the track near Salem. My car isnt track worthy yet, but just being there makes me feel better about life.
