Posts like this show why zillions of folks are following your project. You are the professor for a post-graduate course in Jeep renovation. You probably just saved four or five folks from wandering into the same problem.
In an almost humorous way, this goes back to my First Two Rules of Jeep:
Rule 1. What you see is what you have. Don't blindly trust what is written somewhere.
Rule 2. Never say "Willys-Overland never did XXXXXXX". The corollary is "Never say 'No one would do that..." ".
They would, and they did - and here is the proof.
