1046841 what kind of jeep is it?[addsig]

1046842 How's the paint, frame, interior, drivetrain, tires, etc.? Any other mods? Got any pictures? The more detail you can give, the better people on this board will be able to estimate a price. With older jeeps, you see such varying degrees of use, wear, mods and restoration that its...

1046880 I don't know if its this way everywhere else... but here in the DC area it seems like alarms are just about as pointless as it gets anymore. No one really pays any attention to an alarm going off, and i think that more often than not they're just viewed as a nusance. Its kindof a...

1046881 here's a chart you can check out... jeep tech: tires jim[addsig]

1046974 here's one you can try... its a willys board... jjournal willys jim [addsig]

1048679 Good call Rob... I was reading a post title not too long ago that made me think the same thing. I know that some of us may know each other (and are on the board a whole lot more than others) and that that might raise the comfort level enough to say certain things... but there are alot...

1048688 can't you just pull the wiper stalks off at the base and reposition them so that they are lower on you're windshield? oh, and happy new year! jim[addsig]

1049752 Yeah... it does break the seal, but its easily fixed. Mine was already broken when I got it, and a lot of water was coming in. I ended up putting a small bead of silcone down and it stopped the leaks.[addsig]

8000 210 ft/lbs @ 2000rpm

16000 Also, it might not hurt to check out your fuel filter... does it happen when your tank is close to empty? Just a thought.

27000 It was a 3 speed

55000 My friends stock YJ rubs just a bit in extreme situations with 30s... with 31's you really need about 2", preferably of suspension lift (in my mind at least). Good Luck! Jim 85 CJ

91000 What years are the two jeeps? The good one is definately pre-1980... but the second one (if newer than that is an 86). if this is the case you cant swap the transmissions that easily because the good one has a dana 20 while the newer one has a dana 300. Additionally if your parts jeep...

94000 I think you should be able to run 31s without any lift.

151000 When I bought my CJ it had rs5000s already on it, and there's nothing wrong with them... but if I were you I'd get the 9000s... it definately sounds like its worth the extra $$$

164000 97 was the first year of the TJ

180000 I'm with terry on this one... a 304, 360 or 401 should bolt up with relative ease... as far as your t-176 is concerned, some CJs in 80 and 81 had a 304 and a t-176, so it should be ok.

186000 I know that you're hating that tire rubbing sound, but a shackle lift of 1.5-3 inches will seriously mess with your ride and your steering geometry. Keep in mind that for 1.5 inches of lift, your shackles will be 3 inches longer than stock. When I got my CJ it had 1.5 inch lift...

203000 A 360 is definately not the original engine... but the transmission is something that you're going to have to call into question. Its kind of impossible to know for sure how much of a headache this will pose without knowing what kind of transmission it is. Being the pessimist that I...

225000 Yeah, they used the 258 through 1990, you can look for some amc cars too that had the 258 (amc eagle, concord, etc.) Good Luck, Jim 85 CJ
