Made it into a magazine finally. check out the SEPT PETERSON'S 4 WHEEL & OFFROAD!

check it out! Page 42 of sept's issue... i think that's the page....

i didn't get a full page like kelly did, or a two page write up like mike did with his dodge, but i made it!

if someone wanted to scan it high resolution and email it to me i'd be pretty appreciative of that as well

-Erik

I can't wait to see the pics!

congrats!! Big N Broke WTG.

your pictures on page 92 pic.#4 looks like you were having a blast!

quote from 4-wheel & off-road

Proudly representing the 2.5 Low-Output sticker on his '89 Wrangler, Erik Francin put the four-banger to work all weekend long. Though we suspect it was not the fastest Jeep in the group, the 5.38 gears and full width axles did a great job keeping the 39.5 Boggers crawling everywhere Erik wanted to go.

Congrats Erik! As much work as you have done to your Jeep and the information you have gained and shared along the way, you deserve it. I know how good I felt the first time I saw my name in Powerlifting USA. I was elated as well so I feel your excitement!!
