hi, im about to buy a 83 cj7, and would like to a lift similar to yours. wondering your thoughts of likes/dislikes of the rubicon express/skyjacker lifts. or if your were just going for the top of the line products. im just wonderin if its worth the extra 600$. and anyother advice feel free to share. thanks.
Thanks for the compliment! I thought the wheels and tires helped it stand out! Ya, fixing up old CJ's is a great hobby! This one is my pride and joy, and driving it is bliss! Good luck fixing yours up!
i just bought a 67' cj-5 and its a total rust bucket. to be espected. and i cant decide if i should try to fix the rust. or buy fiberglass body parts. what is your opinion?
IMO, I would not do a fiberglass unless it is going to be a show car. The fiberglass will not hold up well to the beating of rock crawling. My CJ-5 was pretty rusted around the corners when I got it, and we cut a lot of the rust off and welded patches in. That holds up well and you wont have to worry about your bondo popping out if you hit something while offroading!
my 1970 cj5 is fiberglass .It gets pounded in moab 1-2 times a year....seems to work fine in the rocks.....just my 2 cents.....

The tires on the final version of the Jeep are TSL Super Swamper Boggers. My question is how big are they? They look bigger than 33's.
