You're right about the possibility of damage. (or lack of) I'm not worried about tearing the box off, but I think that running the steering shaft...
That's a good idea, but this project is far from "stock". I will have to make an "L" shaped member to get clearance for the new radiator. It's...
Looks like you used a combo of both weld to the boxed frame and weld to the "upright" frame leg. I was just wondering if bolting the cross...
I assume that you say "box up high" you mean the steering box.... Do you box the frame (weld a piece of 3/16" or 1/4" flat to the inside) and...
You're right, I should have clarified my plan. I want to sleeve the steering shaft through the front cross member to keep the box as high as...
Sorry, not the tranny cross member, the front (below the grill). The PO installed a Ford V8 and cut the top half off it and welded an angle onto...
I have a '66 CJ5 that a PO has "frankenstien-ed" the front cross member. At this point, I'm going to cut it out and replace it with some square...
Found some. Gee, they are grade 8.... guess I was wrong. :oops: http://www.taperformance.com/boltkits.htm Lee
Not sure what you mean......Like the bolt shoulder? Yes, they had a shoulder (no threads where the went thru the flywheel). If your FLAPS...
:iagree: Hopefully you haven't gone too far with the clutch on this yet. :( When I replaced the flywheel in a rebuilt Chevy, I had to get...
Harbor Freight has them for cheap. But I don't know if I trust the 1" dial indicators. They also have a precission dial test indicator, but I...
Hmmmmm. I can get the pdf's if I click on the "More" under the Electrical banner, but if I click directly on the wiring diagrams, it sends me...
http://www.earlycj5.com/tech/electrical/f134_Wiring_Diagram_SVG.php I have IE 7.0.57
Would there be any reason why I can't see the wiring diagrams? Something about my browser? Or are the links broken? Thanks, Lee
When your wife asks "Is there anything I can help with". You say "Sure, would you put all the tools away so I can find them when I need them?"...
Be carefull about using the impact wrench on 1/4" bolts, chances they will break off and you will then have to learn how to use Helicoils for the...
Just because you got the axle nut off somehow, doesn't mean that you have the socket to put it back on again. Lee
Don't ever tell the parts house, "You won't see me again this summer!" It just makes you look like a fool when you are back in the next day. Lee
I recently bought a '66 cj5. After spending some time fixing it up, I have come to some conclusions: 1. $1,200 for the jeep is not the steal...
DUH! *slaps forehead* :oops: I guess if I bothered to open my service manual before shooting my mouth off I wouldn't sound so stupid. Thanks
