RE: 1999 Sahara Soft top windows WANTED That looks like a lot of fun. I kinda swore I'd never go on a cruise after 4 years of sea duty and one year on brown water boats. :wink:

Is the fork on the brg correctly?

4.2L? He could have been squirrel hunting :D

It could be a bearing if the oil ran out for a while. Usually the throwout brg is the culprit for the first to make noise.

Trade the CJ for a Rubi?? Hell, everybody is moving there that's why it getting so crowded. Hope there's going to be enough water but there's always beer.

RE: where can I find these FSJ rims!! I had to remove mine for the exhaust. No big deal, take it off and leave it off. A persuader in the shape off a pipe will help :wink:

RE: Stripping paint I did body work on it last summer then because primer absorbs moisture, I used Rust Encapsulator by Eastwood Co., (like POR15) and painted the entire Willys with about 10 spray cans. I think I've learnd a lot more now so I'm ready to do it right this year, with a good PPG...

RE: Finally, the tub off (pics not for shiny Jeep people) Thanks for the replies, guys

RE: Re: RE: doors off, lights & buzzer stay on? 57 year old junk and gunk. Now the rebuild work begins............

Someone posted they used aircraft strip, what is the name and where can I buy this? Thanks,

Clean as in not even finger prints. Get a couple of cans of Brake Cleaner for clean up and assembly.

If you mean lateral movement, did you change the pilot bearing when the clutch job was done the last time? Sounds like a good spot to start. I used the LUK Gold Kit for here http://www.dialaclutch.com/progoldstorecont.htm It's a heavier duty clutch more for a light truck and off road.

I think the 98 is a much better deal if it's in good shape. You'll like the ride in coil springs and that's coming from a guy that's only owned leaf sprung Jeeps (and a Willys ;) ) except for my wife's Grand Cherokee.
