[Disclaimer - if this is comes across like I think I know what I'm talking about, I want to make it clear that I don't. I'm just trying to get my thoughts down]

Looks like the bottom of the front pulley is lined up with the bottom cable. Who be needin' glasses?Gawdzilla wrote:If it's a loop, yes.

Or just plow right thru. Those willys were 4WD, right?
