Looks like the setup on my '65 and I use a Wix 51050. Also, see that curved piece of metal where the top of the filter will rest against? Put a...

My '65 with 4.27s and O.D. will go an indicated 70+ on the flat with standard size tires. It's got 23,000 orig. miles so feels tight and...
If you find out let us know as I'd like to do the same for my '65. Beachwood also sells the bows and rod kit but it's super expensive in my view.
On my '65 firewall the I.D. plate says Kaiser Jeep Corporation with the 8xxx serial number. On the other side of the firewall there is a paint...
Make that a soft too if you have one available. Been looking for a long time for something original to the Jeep instead of the newer Bestop,...

Welcome from Santa Cruz County, Cal., and thanks for confirming the orig. spare is a Goodyear Suburbanite. I've got the same tire, unused, and 43...
Same here, after a 12 year sleep replaced the master cyl., wheel cyls., hoses, shoes, and drums. Now, properly adjusted, I can lock 'em up if...
Yeah, I'd like to see pics too. I'm thinking that would be a good look for my stock '65 although my rims are the orig. 15" size.
