I posted some info on the SE regional forum but decided to bring it out to the forefront.
Thanks to a member on another forum, my new Eagle is named Rockhopper, after the Rockhopper penguin.
I purchased this Eagle in Provo, UT. I drove it from UT to TN averaging 17.5 mpg. It has a Chevy 5.3l V8, 4L60E transmission, NP231 transfer case, Explorer 8.8 rear, Dana 44 Front with Fox coilovers. It will need some attention to a few things otherwise it runs great.
The first thing I did was rip out the HID headlight conversion. I had one go out after only owning it 2 days. I never liked the glare from other cars with HID conversions, so I was happy to see it go. I used the housing that were set up for H4 bulbs and just put stock H4 bulbs in for now. I will eventually upgrade the wiring and install relays to the headlights.
I also installed a new antenna and messed around with the aftermarket temperature gauge but haven't figured out why it's not working properly.
