Just bought this baby used for a little 4x4 to go camping and snowboarding with and I am already running into a few problems. Hopefully everyone else's experience can help me out!!

Hey thanks! I have already had many questions answered thanks to the site. Let's just say it is going to be a busy Halloween weekend of playing under the hood! By the way, speaking of the hood, the hydraulics that keep the hood in the upright position is shot too! I'm going to have to find me a good stick and or some sucker to hold it up for me while I work! ha ha!
