you might have to expand your craig's list search to surrounding states to find what you want. the extra distance traveled might get you a better...
you could also run 215/85x16 (31") and 235/85x16 (32"+) tires. they will be E-rated and hav stiff sidewalls so you'll need to air them up based...
thanks for the post. i'm hoping the ones from my old '66 cj5 will mount up to my '73 cj5 frame and suspension.
replacing the clutch while you have the tranny dropped anyway is just good insurance. especially if the clutch is more than a few years old and...
the 66 was a cj5a i had shipped from Ca. was in the middle of an engine swap and ran into problems. that's why the body is really nice: no rust!...
thanks for all the help, guys. from my research, the frame was changed for the cj5 when they introduced the cj7 in 1976. it was widened as well...
thanks. i'm hoping they changed for the 1976 model year. i know tops and doors were different starting in1976.
i have a chance to get a good running 73 cj5 with a rusty tub. fenders and hood are good. i have a 66 cj5 with a really nice tub. as i...
my 1966 cj5a is a light blue. factory paint still on it.
you can also check out 30/9.50x15 tires. they are available with all season tread patterns and standard load ratings.
my 1966 model just has the brake/tail lights.
as i stated, i did it for the convenience. is it noisier than stock? not really in my old cj. as for power, i can't imagine any more hp being...
many tend to overlook the tops used on M38 and M38A1 military jeeps. they are the same basic body and they fit quite well. i currently have an...
i'm another one that went with the electric fan option. just so much easier really.
i am currently having mine done. it's the same as yours, but a '66 cj5a. more than i wanted to mess with so it's at a body shop. it will get...
search out what the Australian's did to the early cj's they got. i believe they used either the Ford 170 or 200 6 cylinders in their cj5's. i'm...
found a set of pedals complete with the hydraulic clutch setup. not sure yet as i don't have them, but i may still need the bell mounted slave....
i had to switch bell housings. i'm keeping my t90/d18 so i had to get a bell off a mid 80's chevy pu. pics are tough right now. it had to be...
thanks. committed to the 4 banger. i'll search out a set of pedals. i was hoping i could keep the mechanical linkage instead of doing all the...
ok, i'm helping a buddy of mine (i'm no mechanic) swap a 1981 jeep 2.5L into my 1966 cj5a. i know, not the typical sbc swap. the problem is it...
