Great write up, I've done at least a half dozen of these conversions and I believe with every one I have had to machine the back of the hub to get...
Pmed you about it
I have been rebuilding a 79 CJ7 for the past few months and have swapped to YJ BDS springs and am currently running 33x12.5s on some old wagon...
Love it! looks great, planning the same thing for mine when I get to that point of the build.
I'd love front and rear PTOs but need the money to fund the build. I need a good 225, lift springs, windshield frame, roll bar, etc....
Make me an offer, it will be available very soon...
Thanks I did some reseach last nite and found out more after I posted the question and was happy to hear how rare they are and what they are...
Thanks I am thinking of picking a cut off year, say 67 or so, and trying not to use any parts from after that year but it may rule out discs and...

Well Ive only been emailed a few pics so I am not sure on the condition of the drivetrain other than that the tranny is blown. I figure I will...
Yeah I wish I still had that one, never should have sold it but you cant keep em all. Its tempting to build the 5 the same way but I think I want...
I have been leaning towards a more mild wheeler build for it. I have done the SOA 35s and up on a bunch of rigs and am thinking of keeping it...
I may be picking up a 66 CJ5 with a 225 and a blown tranny. Frame is good, body is pretty rusty but saveable. I am looking for a long term project...
Well she's gone, it was picked up yesterday :( Hopefully she will have a good home and the new owner will continue the build up.
I have the Hobart 140 as well as I dont have 220 in my current "at home" shop. Make sure it is wired correctly for flux or gas per the...
Thanks I hope it works out for us.
