    :?When I bought my 67 CJ5 the guy I bought it from threw in a rolling frame with the deal. He said it came from a Tuxedo Park Jeep. It has a T90 side shift trans in it now, with the Dana 18 case. I'm trying to figure out if this is really a Early 5 frame or possibly a CJ3B frame. It also has the frame mounted battery tray on the pass side, and the rear of the frame has the V brace along the top of the frame like I've seen on most 3B's. Any ideas here?:?

    Is the front crossmember (under the radiator) round or channel shaped? If it's not round tubing, it's a 5 frame.

    What he said. Everything you did describe could be CJ5.
