Thank you. It's been fun

Me either brother..been 3 years and I'm done waiting. He'll or high water it'll be on the road come Spring.

Ah. Thanks man..appreciate you noticing. It's coming along but I still have a few hurdles and challenges. Have to find someone local that can help me modify the rear ps bracket due to the 4.0 head conversion. The this week, the body is getting a complimentary colored raptor liner to the...

True. Sorry about that. It's a 79. I don't have the body here with me as it's off to the painters and I've yet to find an example image online. Essentially inside the tub, on the driver's side, the harness continues on to the back of the tub for the rear marker lights and tail lights. To...

Hey Jeepsters. I bought off ebay what is supposed to be the plastic cover that hides the wiring harness on the drivers side just after the door cut out. It's almost 10 inches long and requires 3 small screws..the problem is that it's hard plastic and will not mold to the contour of the body as...

That's what I'm starting to think too. I just thought that with so many others out there doing the conversion there would be more out there about it and/or a prefabbed bracket you could buy.

I can notch out for the exhaust pipe but the primary issue is the bracket being too short as well to reach those two bolts.

Hey Jeep Brothers and Sisters. Here's the latest update and a request for some help. Today we got the chrome headers on and the Clifford 6 to 8 intake with the twin 2bbl carbs installed. Love how it's looking and I'm pretty excited. The challenge is that with the 4.2 to 4.0 head conversion...

I think your right. I know back when they were 15 inch wheels and I think the tire they cam with was like a 29" high or something like that so they were not very wide with that height

Thanks. Knowing me, I'll probably run around without the doors but I knew I'd want them later at some point as an option. May as well have them painted at the same time.

Am I wrong? Were the originals plastic??

Those are all plastic

The body and parts are finally off to paint. Looking more and more like a jeep again. Added the striker pins though so I can use the half doors. What do ya think?

I'm hoping I can get some help on this. I figured one of my brothers out there may know. I search and search and all I can find are plastic fender flares. I want the rubber fender flares identical to what the CJ7 came with in 1979. Can anyone help?

Oh. It didn't look like it had the block on it to me. Thanks so much. I'll look at that again and reach out to that seller to confirm.

The rubber block attaches to that

It's where the tire carrier swings in and latches into place

This goes in between the first metal tab and the second bracket with the oval slots. It's sandwiched in between those. It's a rubber block with matching holes for the bolts to go through.

Yes. The block of rubber is supposed to go between those two metal brackets.
