    damn Autozone!!!!

    Tires

    1058549 No, there is no lift on it. It is our primary vehicle, so I haven't done a whole lot to it. So far I have the rancho rs5000's on it and a AirLift Airbag setup with onboard compressor. The tires are LT235 75R15'S.....not near big enough for my taste, but good for day to day driving...

    Seating space

    1057769 For those of you with the older swb jeeps like my 72, what have you done if anything about the amount of space in the drivers seat? I'm not an overly large guy by any means, by I could handle to loose a few pounds if you know what I mean. When I go to get in the jeep it is a little...

    exhaust on 350 conversion

    It finally came to life!

    1058919 Well, today was the day, after lots of time and parts, I finally started the cj5's new motor. Other than a few minor leaks the 350 sounds and runs great. Initial break in is done, so now I just have to finish putting the front end back together and bleed out the brakes then I can take...
