    When I bought my cj it was in parts and it looks like I am missing a bunch of the parts what years are compatible with a 1970 (69) cj5 v-6 when I have pulled up if seems to show the 72 and up parts

    Is it 1970 or 1969?
    The clutch linkage is different for those 2 years...linkage and cross tube for 69, cable for 70.

    You say the vin has been removed ... where are you getting the serial number from? The frame? or the title? or ?

    we have been through this before . sometimes when a vehicle didn't sell the previous year . it sometimes is titled year it sold . early's didn't have a vin on dash . just a sticker . vin plate is on engine compartment firewall in front of driver . I would think a 69/70 is a cross shaft . with a short cable

    I would expect a '70 to have the sheathed cable ala Doug's post above - not the naked cable as in Ron's post.

    Post up what you have in terms of VIN and serial number on the frame and/or body and the title.
