Finally pulled engine clutch Question

I ordered a clutch it is a 8.5 inch the one on my jeep is a 9.25 inch the 8.5 will fit but will it cause any problems I really don't want to spend the money again. My cj5 is a 62 but I have no Idea what year the engine and tranny is. Please help if it will work I will put it in. If not I will order a new one.

 

If your flywheel is drilled for both sizes (some were), it will work. The larger clutch was a heavy duty option on later years IIRC. I parted out a '69 that had the dual drilled flywheel, haven't seen it yet on the earlier ones. Be sure and check your spline count and replace the pilot bushing while you're in there.

 

Thanks SIDSCJ I thought so but was not sure.
