    CJ6 Front Bench seat mesurements?

    I have a 60/40 bench seat and matching rear out of a 73 Jeep Commando that I won't be using. The front seat would need some recovering but the back wouldn't.

    The 96 may have been that color.

    "Clunker" cars at the PicknPull

    The only thing I saw was that the engines are painted to show that they have been destroyed but they aren't excluding drivetrain parts from being sold. People have also been taking parts off of the motors. They may start the "no drivetrain parts" rule out there if that is what the feds require...

    "Clunker" cars at the PicknPull

    The main requirement was that the dealers had to destroy the engines before sending them off to scrap. I have seen that some dealers in some states have been crushing them but others are just destroying the engine and sending them to salvage. Some of the ones I looked at didn't have that many...

    "Clunker" cars at the PicknPull

    My son told me I had to get down to the picknpull because the cash for clunker cars are showing up and the were some jeeps to take parts off of. It was depressing to see some of the nice jeeps and trucks our tax dollars destroyed. I took some parts off of a really clean red 90 YJ. There was also...

    Guess you won't be needing the one from my basement, that's what I get for being slow.

    how much is chevy 1/2 axles worth?

    The 77 front should be a d44. The 78 Blazer axles I have in the garage are d44/12 bolt. I too haven't had any luck selling the 12 bolt. I am going to use the d44 for my commando project however.

    Scout is finally getting a rear 4 link

    Just out of curiousity, when your axle articulates what will keep your springs from coming off the axle? It looks like the top of the spring may be tied down but I don't see anything for the bottom of the springs other than the bump stops. Will you be adding limitting straps to stop it from...

    Injecting a Chev 350

    Well I was planning on doing the adapter for the TBI conversion on the Commando, maybe I'll have to machine out the center holes on the TBI manifold I picked up instead. I wonder why the sensors would have issues if the adapter is built correctly ?

    The family Commando build project

    Thanks, I'll keep it in mind if I find more parts I need. I have the front clip off of my 73 if you want any of it.

    The family Commando build project

    Don't worry, driving it once with that lift was enough for me. It will all come off when I put the long arms on it.

    The family Commando build project

    Here is a trial fit of the CJ front clip on the commando. It fits quite well except the fenders need to be lengthened to meet the commando lower body line. I will most likely be tubing out the fenders and will fix the issue then. I have a dana 60 for the rear of it and will be narrowing the...

    bad master cylinder?

    I have also seen bad tie rod ends cause a pull to one side but I would suspect a caliper.

    Figuring out the mileage on a TJ engine

    The old Willys project that I picked up a few weeks back had a 97 TJ frame and drivetrain under it. The more I look at the drivetrain the more it looks like this thing had VERY low miles on it. Last night I took out the distributor to spin the oil pump to prime the engine before trying a...
