My 1978 Jeep CJ5 coming home from paint.

whats going on? you still hanging around 4x4country?

hmm...interesting thread....lemmie look around i'm sure i can come up with pictures.

Well post some pictures........im all about free or next to free jeeps.

Also, I don't know what i'm doing wrong but i cant seem to find the link for the pictures. thanks

Where are you located at? Hood, T-150 Transmission, back seat...and a whole bunch of stuff. Thank you

It will be a long time until i get it into traffic, but brakes are a priority. As soon as it gets above freezing here, I'll sit down and try and figure them out.

Got the Starter Motor in last night. After hooking everything up I was ready with everything to try and get it to fire up. To check I was good I turned the key, the darn thing started right up. Didn't have to pump the gas, or crank for a long amount of time or anything. I was really really...

I will most likely go with a complete suspension lift to get it trail worthy. I'm picking up the starter motor on my way home tonight!! So my goal being it's 62 degrees outside is to get it to run. This is the second CJ5 in the family now. I don't know why I keep coming home with them. I'm...

where are you located at? I need some stuff, but no real point if you on the other side of the country. thanks

JCwhitney has a lot of that stuff. www.jcwhitney.com I think. (Search the web for coupons too they put out a ton.) They are pretty cheap and carry pretty much everything. hope that helps.

I went to look at it on Saturday, and it's sitting in the garage right now. I ended up talking the guy down to $400.00 for it. It's rough, but no where nearly as bad off at my '78 cj5 was when I brought it home. It does not run, and the old owner said it was a couple of years. We got it...

I had all-terrains 31's on my Xj for about a year. I was impressed off road, but on road they stunk. I thought they wore fast, and they were horrible in the snow. (I plowed with them on the jeep for a year) I got about 30,000 miles out of them before they were pretty much bald. But on the...

not to hijack but Bounty i've been in Shawnee, was there every weekend during College. Loved the Area, loved the wheelin, loved not seeing a paved road for days. Hijack over

I'm no where near Nor Cal, but everytime i've smashed a light in it's been cheaper to go the aftermarket/chinese route, then getting a junk yard assembly. www.carparts.com I've used several times, with decent results, there gmc side mirrors are junk, but for $30.00 vrs $120.00 at the...

I agree on it looking to nice for parts. My cherokee is on it's way out and i was in the market for a cheap Jeep to replace it. This may be the ticket if it turns out nice. I've been through the whole bad gas thing as well when I got the '78. It sucks and caused a lot more problems for...

I had the same problem with my Cj5 when i first got it. I've got old BF tires on it that came with it, and are probably origional to the jeep. But anyway they are beefy enough that they will hold the jeep up with little or no pressure in them. One day I realized i never checked the pressure...

I haven't seen it in person yet. I will on saturday. So for all I know, the back and passanger side could be completly rusted out. But I agree on it looking solid so far. How can you tell the wiper motor is gone? On my 78 Cj5 the wiper motor is on top of dash. I see the whole in the...

Ok, scratch the 4 cylinder talk. it's a 258 six cylinder.
