    Early Hemi in a Jeep?

    1063361 Has anyone ever installed an early Hemi in a Jeep? I am curious if the task has ever been done and/or if the idea is feasible (without any major pains). :) [addsig]

    Rear Seats and Hard Tops

    1063595 A few little questions, for my curious nature. (I'm obviously not a master of Jeep history.) When did CJs get rear seats? Always? When did CJs get an optional hard top? [addsig]

    Best Jeep for V8 Conversion

    1064634 Thinking about getting a Jeep later this year for a possible Hemi conversion down the road. Is there a good engine/transmission combo to look for in a CJ-7 that would make it easier for a swap later on? I'm envisioning a 331-354 Hemi with an auto transmission... I think people say to...

    CJs and Rollcages

    1066723 Does anyone make better rollcages for the old CJs? Or is the stock bar the only real economical choice? I know *anything* can be fabricated, but curious if there are pre-fab alternatives/add-ons out there... [addsig]

    Jeep Insurance

    1066731 This question is geared toward people with older Jeeps. Do you have normal coverage? Can you get "classic" (read: cheap) coverage on an older Jeep if it is not a high mileage vehicle? I am curious how some of you insure an old Jeep. Seeing as "liability" is the majority of normal...

    Towing: 4-cyl vs 6-cyl

    1067173 I am, quite possibly, a future Jeep buyer. I was curious w/ any towing experiences. I own a 4.3L S10 and tow 2 jetskis with it. I have driven 4-cyl pickups before and it is obvious that I would never tow w/ one. Would towing with a Jeep be the same? PS- I am not getting rid of my S10...

    CJs/YJs and Rear Seats

    1067174 I believe the rear seat was a YJ option. Was it also an option on the old CJ7s? Can a rear seat be added to either one if you find a model that doesn't have it? Is rear seat room pretty similar between the two? I believe they both have similar wheelbases, but not sure about cab size...

    2005 Jeep Liberty DIESEL

    1067175 The 2005 Jeep Liberty diesel packs an admirably quiet punch http://www.freep.com/money/autoreviews/phelan8_20030508.htm About 150-hp and over 260-tq from a 2.8L. And has 30% more economy than gasoline. I might have to talk the wife into one! :) (Since I already have plans for a...

    CJ-7 Transmission Type?

    1068142 The 5-speed in an '84 CJ-7, what model is it? Is this the same 5-speed as in all CJs? Or did they vary through the years? Any breakdown? [addsig]

    1987 YJ

    1070054 I found an '87 YJ that has caught my eye. The 258 6-cyl and a 5-speed combination. Doing some research, I see that this 258 is not really much of a horsepower beast. Although 210 ft-lb torque is not shabby. Worst of all, more than one review that I have read gives negative remarks to...

    Various YJ Packages

    1070115 Islander, Laredo, Renegade, Rio Grande and Sahara. Is there some description of what comes in some of these packages? Do they define certain option sets? I have seen them from time to time and am curious. Thanks! [addsig]

    CJ7 in Houston, TX

    1071743 While I am looking, might as well post a WTB ad. Looking for an early CJ7, but any year might do. 6 or 8 cylinders, manual or auto, and min/no lift. If anyone has a good lead, let me know! :-) [addsig]

    Quadratrac Pros/Cons

    1071952 What are the pros/cons of the Quadratrac? Specifically, behind a 304 with the TH400. I believe it is a full-time system? Does that mean no in-cab shifter? [addsig]

    Novak 4.3 Conversion

    1073147 Desirable? Undesirable? Indifferent? Found a CJ with one, curious what the masses think about that kind of swap. I drive a 4.3 S10. I love the GM 4.3s. [addsig]
