Need help on a frame up rebuild
Here is my story. I recently bought a 75 CJ5 that had been completely disassebled for rebuild. I never got to see it before it was taken appart so figuring out what goes where and how it mounts up is going to be fun. Is there anyone in Northern Colorado or Southern Wyoming that has a similar year that wouldn't mind me comming over and shooting some pics to help me put this thing back together?

I'm in the middle of doing this to a '70. Mounting points are nearly identical to your '75, although your front clip is 3.5" longer.
Poke around my photobucket: http://s62.photobucket.com/albums/h89/jayhawkclint/1970%20CJ5/Restoration%20Winter%202006/?start=0 Here is my build thread: http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f22/my-jeep-build-thread-359375/ Best '55-'75 CJ5 site on the net: www.earlycj5.com Don't see what you need? Just ask. I've got a rolling chassis and the tub flipped upside down, so I can take just about any angle of shot you want. I've also got a '73, but I'm a little embarrassed to post pics of it at the moment. Last edited by jayhawkclint; 03-07-2007 at 07:55 AM.. |

Thanks for the links JayHawkClint! I am helping my in-laws start rebuilding their 73 cj5. It has been sitting in a shed for 10+ years and moved for the first time today down to the shop to test how free the engine is. Hopefully they will tear it down to the frame and build it up right, but since it isn't mine, I am just a helper and so these should help with some of the problems we might run into.

Thanks for the help. Those pics will help me out. I am just geting the frame and body ready to go to media blasting then I will get painting. I am sure I will be posting many questions when the time comes to reassemble.
