    Hi,

    I've been trying to find a bracket for my 1971 cj5 Oil bath air cleaner. I believe it goes attached to the passengers side fender. Does anyone have any idea where can I find it?

    Thanks,

    I won't speak for all '71s, but mine has a dry paper element type filter that fastens to the carburetor neck only. Wait...do you have an L4 or a V6? You might research older CJs (at this site) and get an idea of what your part should look like. You may be chasing something homemade.

    My '71 V-6 still has the factory stock dry paper air cleaner assy... Pics of your set-up may help.

    I'm afraid that while the parts manual shows the bracket it doesn't seem to list the part number but here's the drawing anyhow-

    I'd suggest placing a want add on here in the classifieds or on the Willy's Tech page, there's usually a couple of ads current on there from people parting out a large number of jeeps.
