Yeah that's the one. I'm glad to hear you guys like it and don't think it's that bad, I was somewhat disappointed with the amount of rust. I think once the body work is all done I'm going to paint it this color Image

Anyone here have the Wet Okle brand seat covers in their FSJ? Did they fit ok? Would you do it again?

The 228/229 is shift on the fly. When in 2wd, the flag shifter will not move. Flip the vacuum switch and you are in 4wd high. Then you can go to neutral or low with flag shifter. Need to be stopped or rolling very slow to shift to low. In low, you can flip the vacuum switch but nothing will change. Must be in high to go back to 2wd.

I have been back and forth about what to do with my seats. Katskinz are $$, local recovers are the same. Wet okie seems like the deal. I'll be interested to see if anyone has them.

$553 the way I "built" my Wet Okle when I priced them yesterday. I left off the heat and lumbar but added some other essential items :)

I'm try to build a survival wagon without it looking like a survival wagon. I don't want one of those military nut looking vehicles. This commando green is enough different than OD it might be the ticket. What do you think it will turn out like?

I have no idea, I don't have the talent to "photo shop" (or anything like that) that paint onto the GW.
