    Just got my copy of Moses Ludel's new Jeep Rebuilder's Manual. It's got a ton of pictures. He goes step by step and rebuilds a '55 CJ5. I'm rebuiling my T90, so the step by step tranny rebuild, along with Rick Stiver's great web site, should enable even me to get it running (he also does a T18).

    The book's photoghrapher must not have had a V8 that morning, as he only got half the dang CJ in the pic! WTF?

    Yeah, the worse half. But the other book has the other half of the AMC CJ. So if you put the 2 books together....

    What would have been cool is that he took your jeep and rebuilt it for the book. :D :D

    So I am digging up an older thread here, but I figure why start a new thread....

    Anyway, I'm going to be starting my resoration of the '71 here in the next month. :stout:

    What I want to know is which manual (s) is/are the best for a complete restoration? This book sounds the best to me, but I only have been researching for a day. Can some of you chime in that have this manual and/or others.

    Thanks :D
