I have dual flex-a lite fans on my CJ5. It has worked great. As for power gains and such I really think it's so small you really wouldn't notice. For offroading they are great. I have my fans on a switch which is great,Go threw a deep water hole or mud hole just hit the switch and turn them off...

You could find a used hydraulic setup from a S-10 those work pretty good. A very cheap way to lift and keep those bigger tires, would be a shackle lift and add a leaf. That would be better then a big ole body lift. Good luck!

Welcome James, I also have a 73cj5, They are great classic jeeps and only had that particular body 2 years. 72 and 73. Body lifts do create problems with clutch shifting when using manual clutch linkage. Specially while there is flex when off roading. I would recommend installing a hydraulic...

Suspension lift is the right way to do it! If your looking to get some lift with a tight budget ( not serious off roader) then shackle and add a leaf does the trick. Good luck.

Hows the flex with the 31's? Measure the true height of your 31's and the 32's your interested in putting on it. Different brands run different sizes. Also rim width can change this. My 35"tires are actually 33". Good luck

Mine was a carb. Long lasting smooth reliable motor it was! There is tons of them in junk yards to! Having a 4.3 fuel injected would be nice but have also heard of problems. Good luck.

The tires in those pictures were q78 Super swampers. They are 35.5" X 10.5" They are as deep lugged as the 44 tires. Great off road! The dash is custom aluminum. Jeeps are a lot of fun and work at the same time!

Amc 20 stronger then a 44 (Impressive). Lock right from a model 20 to a dana 44 are not interchangeable. You can prob sell the other lock right on here if in good shape. Good luck

Interesting on skyjacker owning super lift. My own experience has been super lift does have great on road characteristics. Off road maybe a little weaker/ soft. I had the super lift superide on a 73 cj5. 50% off is a good deal. I would go for it. You can always change it again. Good luck.

Also had a cj5 with a Buick 4.3 V-6 Had surprisingly good power and was getting close to 16mph running 35" tires. Low on power after 50mph but in an old jeep you probably don't want one that goes 100mph

Sorry try again!

Not a bad lift. Not top of the line but a good on road/ off road lift!

How big of tires are you running? If you can afford a detroit or arb those are far Superior!

Wow your spider gears did take a beating. I would inspect the ring and pinion for wear also. Yes you do need to take out your diff to change the spider gears. While its apart inspect bearings and give a good cleaning. If you are an serious off roader this may be a time to upgrade a few thing...

73cj5 304 2barrel 35.5" tires 4:10 gears about 13 Highway. If your not running bigger meats and don't need the power a straight 6 would be a good choice I think.

I like the jeep trailer efstop22. I have one but not in that good of shape! Here is my rig below.

Yes the vin is where to do your research. Do you have any pics of your 72? great year. I have a 73 but far from stock looking.
