In that condition, I wouldn't pay over $2500. I picked up a '71 in better condition for $1200
By all means, do a write up of the install here with pics. There are many (myself included) who would like to know the details.
lol. She's 18 now. We haven't really done much to the old Jeep since we got it. Life has gotten in the way.
Lol. We're safe there. She's married and her hubby knows what it is. He's in the Navy though and hasn't seen it yet.
Yup. It's the TH400. At some point, it will probably get replaced with a 700R4, but that's down the road. Right now, the goal is to make it a...
Nice score! Everyone around here seem to think those are made of plutonium when they come up with their prices.
No tach, so don't know for sure, but not too high. Maybe slightly high for the Dauntless.
Replaced a couple of vacuum lines and added two quarts of atf, now the transmission hits like an asteroid when you put it in gear. Takes a lot of...
I should have mentioned that a PO already replaced the floorboards with what appears to be 18 ga sheet. It just isn't welded. Lots of rivets.
I just got it running the other day, after sitting for a few years. I haven't gotten too far into it, since I bought it for my daughter's 14th...
I just went through the same thing. Took off the antique 33's and put on a set of used 32's (in very good shape) and it's like a whole new Jeep....
I never quite understood using full width axles in Jeeps. By the time guys are done widening, stretching, hacking, and slashing, they might as...
Sweet little trailer. I've been contemplating building a trailer out of two body tubs. It would be nice to have the extra capacity.
P.S. In 1980, the speed limit was 55 mph nation wide. Many vehicles had a mark there.
Don't sweat it. Take your time. Follow the instructions. Get it aligned right after the lift is complete. Enjoy. BDS manufactures a quality...
Definitely not worth the price. I bought this [IMG] for $4500 in Colorado, where Jeep prices are higher than most anywhere. It's a '77, showing...
I've been way busy since I took the tranny out. Any special tools I'll need for the dis-assembly/re-assembly?
Well, this should be interesting. I've begun the swap from the t150, 3 spd in my '77 CJ5, to a NP 435. I have the trans and t-case out as well as...
Well..... Are you talking about a NP435 or SM 465? They aren't the same transmission. I'll be using a NP 435 in my Jeep. Granted, I have the...
Thanks! I use 3/16" AR plate with 1.75"x.140" tube. This pair is a little rough, being prototypes for some changes I've made. Still have a little...
