    My 1966 CJ6 is finally on the road. Llicensed and legal

    I got this Jeep five years ago on Ebay- and did frame-up overhaul.

    134 to 231 odd-fire

    Headers

    Dana 30 axle conversion

    11 inch Brakes

    Power Steering

    Swing Pedals

    Hydro Clutch

    2 1/2 lift springs

    2 inch Body lift

    rebuilt T-90
    rebuilt dana 18 t-case

    New E-Brake

    New Windshield

    Boxed Frame

    New floor boards ( old ones rusted out)


    Need Tires and wheels-- I am running 215-R70/15 tires
    I have enough tire clearance to run 36 to 38 inch tires--- but 33s will do fine.


    Even with new Springs is sagged one inch to drives side in front-- so I evened out the sag by putting in an extra leaf on the driver's front side.

    Still more bugs to fix...

    But it runs and runs stong!
