My CJ5 "frame"

I have not but im pretty sure that the 327 has the same bolt pattern and motor mounts as a 350 so I dont think itd be that hard at all?

 

I would think that you can just cut the motor mounts off of the waggy, lift out motor with mounts still attatched and then set it in the 5's frame and once you get her positioned...weld away. You going to use all the drivetrain from the waggy to put under the frankinjeep...as you have refered to it? I like the idea of turning it into a truck.

 

Im almost 100% sure that wont work for the reason of the 5's frame is way more narrow than the waggys check this link out for your amazing motor mount set up ive been doing lots of research on this to make sure my project goes well!!

Ive actually found these same mounts less expensive at summit but yeah ya get the idea

 

Forgot to post this one. 11 days ago I put a rear "bumper" on from another frame I had. I sandblasted it about 3 months ago and only had red paint. Will paint it black later.

 

Picked up, from a friend, one the first sets of 4 inch lift springs for the CJ5, made by Rancho in the '70's. Also got a set of 1 3/4 cross braced shackles.



Other then that been busy with work.

 

Nice!!
