    I'm not exactly sure what radius you are looking for, but I'm thinking 3" may be the number you are looking for.

    I've seen both 3" and 3.5", hoping to get and accurate measurement on mine for making my wheel tubs and quarter panels when I can get back to it after Christmas.

    How do I get a copy of these? The ones I had were lost to a computer crash about three years back.

    I'll try to measure the one I've got made for mine this weekend. Know it's 59" wide, just can't remember off the top of my head how tall it is.

    Stopped in the shop after I got home, the riser I made for my CJ6 is 59" wide, by 4 7/8" tall with 3/4" flanges on both short sides and the bottom long side. Still have to make the notch in it for the transmission hump.

    Navy could you give me the measurements for the rear floor pan reinforcements, how far from the front drop piece are they . The old body has none because it's not original .

    I need the measurements of the floor pan reinforcements and where they are located dimensionally

    Just a suggestion, when I done mine I welded a thin walled 1" box tube along the rockers and across the trans hump just because I could. It has to help make the body more ridged. I also welded a 1" X 1" X 1/8" angle along the bottom edge of the box inside of the wheel wells to reinforce the box. I figured I only wanted to do this once. Just a suggestion. While you are welding, I put 2, 1" X 1" box tubes inside the kick panels under the dash to mount speakers on. Just a suggestion.

    Nice drawing, I never noticed before, there is a body mount under the tool box, but not on the drivers side? I will have to look at mine, it seems like they were even, can't remember, comes with being old I guess. I added two more at the firewall, instead of the pads.

    Won't be one on the drivers side. Would interfere with the gas tank.

    I hate to bring this one back from the dead... BUT I'm looking for the dimensions from the top of the trans hump to the bottom of the rear floor.
