[IMG] This is a pic from when i was tearing apart my 72 last year. I haven't got back to the stage of installing the brake lines, but hopefully...
Bringing this one back to the top. I bought new leaf springs, Rough Country, 2 1/2" lift. Energy suspension bushings, and 7/16" bolts with the...
I've got a cordless Milwaukee M18 I've been using quite a bit lately. Not sure I'd want to cut 1/2" plate with it by any means, but it sure is...
I don't have the cordless ratchet, but I do have lots of Milwaukee cordless tools. One I use all the time is a 18V, 3/8" drive cordless impact....
I used longer bolts in opposite corners where the intake attaches to the heads when I lifted mine out. Didn't have any problems. I haven't put...
That's a beautiful rig! Enjoy your trip and safe travels!
I'm impressed Focker. Mine is nowhere close when it comes to organization. :whistle:
I picked up my engine from the machine shop today. My frame is still at a buddy's shop. We've been doing a little strengthening. Still need to...
My 72, (when it was together, and running) has factory suspension, and 31x10.50's. If turning left, while dropping the left front in to a ditch...
Correct. As long as no pressure, is applied to the heads, loosing studs a couple at a time isn't going to hurt a thing.
I've made up my mind... This is the route I'm going. Mainly because it's what I already have, and the engine shop said it would work fine. He...
After a little more investigation last night, I don't think the diamond plate is welded in like I thought. What I thought was a weld, I now...
I'm not crazy about the diamond plate either. But I'm afraid I'd tear more up getting it out than I care to fix. It doesn't bother me enough to go...
The machine shop did mention this as an option. Said there wasn't a ring groove, and he could probably hone it and it work out fine. I'm just not...
Going to bring this one back to the top and post a few pictures of where I am with it. [IMG] This was last fall, my daughter wanted to ride to...
I really would like to hear some more thoughts on the I6. I want to keep it as stock as possible, so I'm not really even looking in to a later...
I started a build thread a little over a year ago, but I haven't really done much to it besides drive it around until recently. I usually drove...
I've been reading some on an amc forum also. I will probably try to sell the engine (part or whole) on that forum. The crank and rods are still...
A little history first. 72 CJ5. Came factory with 304, but PO, or actually the guy before PO, installed a 401. It wasn't running when I bought it,...
I can't get photobucket to open. So I don't have pics. But the hole in the crossmember is exactly 1" in diameter. My grille had a bolt coming...
