    Could a CJ5 frame be stretched to accomodate a cj6 tub?

    Sure! Member (firefightermike) and I are currently cutting the front of his damaged cj6 frame off and grafting a cj5 frontend on to it. The big differente is that the cj6 frame was strapped on the long straight section and I think has 2 more body mounts (don't quote me on this but I think it does) that the early 5's didn't have.
