    What are thed additional 3 inches for in the 1972 to 1973 CJ body styles?
    What is the overhang from the center of the rear axle to the rear of the tub?
    What is the distance from the firewall to the front of the radiator?
    I tried the search button with no luck.
    Thanks in advance

    There's an additional 5" in the front clip and the frame is 3" longer. The bodies from 55-75 are all the same, except for details.

    There's a forum for these Jeeps here under "Intermediates" ie 72-75 models.
