Welcome to the world of CJ's.

You will find a lot of people here who are willing to help you. The bad thing is the search function is down so that hurts. However, googling is a good idea. It may bring up an old link here. I've done that several times as well. Also, you can check out earlycj5.com for some good information and people who deal in 67 CJ's and if you need parts try jeep-classifieds.com beside the sale area here.

JP magazine is a good investment and their on site info is pretty informative as well.

You only have to remember what Jeep means.
