    I have a 72 cj5 frame that i am restoring,It has been sitting for a while and the rear and front brake drums are stuck on.Any idea on how I can get them off,without doing any damage.Also with the engine mounts which side of the the frame does the the big one go.Where can I find 2 rear rear shock mounts that are welded to the top of the frame

    Re the brakes, likely you'll need to back off the self-adjusters before they will come off. Use a brake spoon or a big, flat screwdriver. The hub and all will come off if you remove the spindle nut and back off the brake shoes.

    The shock mounts should be available from 4WD.com or other Jeep specialty places. Don't know about the mounts - which engine?
