wheel wells and rear floor pan dimensions

I need these sizes to build new ones .The tub has so many repairs that it's build one or by the whole thing ,which I did on a 2a . I have the tolls to do it I just need good dimensions. Thanks for the help in advance

I forgot to say it is a 1961

 

Might help a bit

 

If some one could actually measure there cj5 1961 or earlier it would be truly appreciated

 

What I received so far has helped ,just need more detail

 

The rear floor on my 5 measures 42.5" long and 36" wide, nice and "square". Wheel wells are a little harder because there are a lot more shapes going on and mine are covered with junk. I'll see if I can't get them cleaned off this evening so I can pull some measurements from them.

 

THANKS Navy ,I can start the floor pan this weekend .I have the 2 sides coming and will remove the old tub to start the rebuild .This site has been the best help yet. My 47 2a I just bought a new tub and this time I will use my sheet metal skills

 

Is the tub on a 2a the same size as a 5

 

Just checked the 2a and it is smaller .The 5 wheel wells are wider but the length is the same. I think I can build them with just a width change .I also need the drop of the floor pan from front to back. I will probably buy a new tool box for the passenger side. hope there are ribs on the underside .

 

Here are the drawings I made when I made the floor and wheel house for my 62 CJ5. I added the Wheel House Notch, so you may need modify the flat layout if you don't want it. I replaced way more sheet metal than I should have. Probably 70% of the steel is new. Hindsight says I should have bought a new tub, but I had way more time than money. And I work at a sheet metal shop so I was able to use all the equipment to blank, form, and spot weld. I used a HF bead roller to add the embosses. I didn't like the emboss options that came with it so I made so custom dies to match the original width and height. The cool thing is I now have Solid Models of everything I made. Floors, Hat Channel, Wheel Houses, Rear Corners, Tail Gate Frame. Let me know if you need anything else.

 

Wow, this is crazy. I just make it up as I go along.

 

Here's the Solid Models of the tub rear.

 

Me too ! This is the first i have seen in this detail . Google did not have this 7 months ago!

 

This is some great stuff on Wednesday I will start laying it out on 18 gauge galvanized steel . I think I'll build the wheel wells first . will post pics if I can figure out how to do it . I want to thank the members for such great help .I am brand new to this site. I have built a cj2a and it is a prom queen but my first jeep was a 1970 cj5. When the kids came along I got a van.

 

I am pulling the old tub off to rebuild can I move the tank to the rear under side in a 1961 cj5 and has any one done it.

 

I made my floor with 11 gauge it was easier to work with for me, the box floor I made out of 1/8" checker plate and 1 x 1 x 1/8" angle. It is heavier, stronger, and easier to weld with a mig welder for me. I cut out the trans hump and welded it to the 11 gauge so the stock covers worked out. Hope this helps, good luck.

 

Here is some things to look at. You might want to do this or this might be a lesson to not do this.

Nice job 47v6, I have a set of red urethane body mounts you can have for cheap, $10.00, pm me if you want them. I changed my mind and put black ones in mine.

 

Any one know the radius of the rear corner panels close to the tailgate? It sure would help in building the fender wells.
