    Going to pick up my 69' CJ-5 Thursday and need to know how wide a 69' is with 31's on 15 x 8 rims. My trailer is only 6' 3&1/2" wide.
    Thanks for any help.

    The body tub is 59-1/2" wide less the side mounted spare.
    Otherwise the tire sidewalls will be the widest concern.
    With tires and wheels as described I would estimate the tire sidewall width near 62".
    Exact tire width depends on the wheel set.
    If it has fender extensions add about 5 " to the tub width = 64-1/2"
