Ummm, wow! much trouble. I have found that for a amc 8 take the oil pan off and then remove the rear cap, which houses the rear seal.. I hope this solves my leaking issues... any suggestions on how to find oil leaks?

I am sick of dripping oil from my engine. I have replaced the oil pan gasket once, but believe that I need to do that again. Another thing I heard is the rear main seal leaks often, but it does seem like there is plenty of oil near the front of the engine as well. Does anyone have this issue...

Thanks for adding comments. To answer some questions. I like the added room of the 8. Currently I do not run a backseat. That space is for gear and stuff. We recently added our son to our fam and would like to bring him along and keep the gear. I love the wheelbase and look of an 8. The over...

I have been thinking of turning my CJ7 into an 8. Has anyone ever heard of this and if you have how hard is it? I can approach this from two different angles. 1. Buy a new 8 frame and body tub and put extensions in gas and brake lines, and order a new driveshaft. 2. Cut and extend the frame, and...

I am trying to find a good way of moving my jeep to MI. It is set up for flat towing and that is how i get it to Moab. But what about cross country what issues should I be worried about? The CJ7 is set up with locking hubs on all four wheels. Thanks

Yeah there is a highend roofing product called ecostar slate and shake. it is made from recycled plastic and can easily be screwed through or whatever. Just drive down to Roofers supply on 3359 south and 500 east. and ask them for a couple samples.

Rusted, thanks for the advice. What degree of welding experience did you have before tackling your tub? i have never laid down a bead, but do want to learn. Open to other suggestions from people....

nice ride, I am looking to do the same thing with my CJ, but funds and ability are running low

All, my cj7 tub has some rust on it, and needs some work. The trouble areas are the drivers floorboard, main loop mount area, passenger side (floor, sidewall), and two spots in the bed. My question is this, is it cheaper to have the metal fixed, or is it cheaper to buy a new tub and put it...

I actually love the Scout. That will be my next project vehicle. Nice rig.. What problem areas have you found with the Scout?

Any other suggestions???

thanks

I read that you can use vise grips to remove the bolt, have you done this before? have you ever had leaking around the oil pan and oil pump cover?

All, I have a problem with my oil pump cover for an AMC 401 that is in my CJ. One of the bolt head broke off, and now I am stressing about how to fix it. Does anyone have any suggestions how to extract the bolt without having to tear down the front of the engine and replace the timing cover...

To four link the front of my cj , what would i be looking to spend? is it worth it?

i had Outer limit do it for me since i am lacking a welder and tube bender. The took a tube and took it over the M20 pumkin and welded it at the location on top of the pumkin, and where the tube meets the axle, pretty easy, but huge gains. a hundred i think

I had to make a decision a while back to build up the M20 and live with it instead of investing in a new axle. I run the Warn one piece full floating kit w/ a Detroit with 4.56. I run 35's and have yet to even question my decision. I have no complaints about the setup and have addressed the...
