Mine was a mighty good woods truck too, we had it in some awful holes and still
made it home. Comfortable to ride in too. The Cherokee that my folks replaced
it with couldn't hold a candle to it with the exception that the 4.0 in the
Cherokee was much more powerful. Drank more gas too...

It depends on the
model year. The 2.8 was around for a long time. The later 2.8 in the
trucks was slightly different. They were gutless in the trucks, but
your experience was common. They were quite reliable.
