Another reason I'd like to do it. I really would like the satisfaction of being able to say "i did that, I built it" but would feel way better doing all the work along side someone who can guide me while I ask questions. Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

Yea it's very overwhelming being my first time possibly attempting this. I don't want to get part way through and get to a point I can't finish and just have pieces of an axle lol. Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

I won't be doing that portion Eddie, I will be doing the rebuild of the axles themselves. I have new 5.38s, spool, and shave kit sitting in my closet along with disc brake brackets, calipers, and pads Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

Things are good man, thanks for asking. I'm flying out in OKC now for AirEvac LifeTeam. I've been doing EMS work since January, little different pace than I'm used to but gives me tons of time to read forums [emoji23] Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

Haha you are both correct. I myself am wanting to rebuild the axles and get them ready for install. I'll have to pay a shop to do the stretch, adding frame, proper springs and shocks, and come up with something for power steering. Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

Alright guys, I've been buying parts to start my build because I had a guy I thought was a buddy volunteer to help me with the build and teach me along the way. At this point I'm assuming it was all talk, I can't get him to commit. I've got a Cj5 I am stretching and putting 1 tons under. I...

I have not a clue man

Hey guys so I need to replace the rear pinion seal on my CJ5, I have a dana 44 out back. I have never done one and have heard mixed information about doing it, some say it's as simple as popping the yoke, putting the new seal in and done. Others have said I will have to reset the back lash on my...

Alright I tried using the search function to no avail, maybe I just suck lol. I am trying to figure out whether I should go with 17s or 20s while running 40in tires on my CJ. I've searched around google and can't really find anything that satisfies what I am looking for. Pictures would be...

Hey guys. I currently have a 75 CJ5 with a 304 that I have converted to TBI. I have a 14 bolt sitting in the shop waiting to go in with 4 link and then just looking for a dana 60 to 3 link the front and stretch the whole rig, it will then be running on 40s. I love the jeep but hate the fact I...

Could you post some pictures of this please, I would be curious to see what it looks like. Did you build your 3/4 link or did you buy them?

I will be stretching mine end of the year to beginning of next. Ill try to remember to get on here and post results. I currently have a 14 bolt, trussed 5:13s, detroit locker going in that will be 4 linked, front will be a kingpin with same setup but 3 linked. I will get pics of the aftermath...

75 CJ5, 3rd owner, Uncle had it for 18 years prior to me

Yup just figured that out yesterday. Also just learned that the -8 AN fittings on the tank are the same as a 1/2 JIC fitting. Makes finding the fittings a lot easier. Learning lots from this project, just need to track down all the proper fittings now.

Hey guys I am replacing my fuel tank in 2 weeks and am planning on putting and aluminum tank in my tub so I can stretch it. My rig is a 75 CJ5 the tank I am looking at is http://www.summitracing.com/parts/rci-2161a/overview/ my question is, do I have a return line on my rig? If not then what...

Hey guys so I went to my storage unit yesterday and found all my hand and power tools to be gone. I had rented the unit 2 weeks ago and purchased one of their locks, I put all my stuff in there and the only person to see what I put in was their maintenance guy who was working on some signs next...

Hey guys just moved out to OKC from Vegas and trying to figure out who is out here, what is a good shop out here and most of all the best local spots to go have some fun!

Alright guys I need some help, I have never been so let down with a part before. I ordered CJ5 fender flares and lining from MetalCloak, took them long than the 2-3 weeks to get here, no big deal I can wait. I have everything pulled apart before they arrive for quick easy install. I start to...

By build I mean replace all the worn out parts, I am only running 33s for the next few years (about 5) while I save for 1 tons and coils front and rear. It is just to get me by for now
