I have always used the lube I am going to run in the transmission in a squirt can. For lube to "stick" things like the counter shaft bearings and thrust washers in place, Vaseline.
I agree gm! Very cool experience here.
You have a few options. I would first call Silv-o-Lite. They made the pistons originally long ago. They are the only current manufacturer of Willys / Continental L134 pistons. They are now owned by...
But Larry...... you did set her up with a dyno-mite sewing machine!
Don't let him fool you, Larry is surrounded. He lives in harms way. Trouble wont scare him off.
Work from the bottom up. You can remove the u-bolts, remove the centering bolt/pin from the spring pack and remove leafs on the vehicle. Remove the leafs from the shortest first, not from the middle....
Oh man... Two red beauties parked in Larry's barn! There should be room left for a little Red CJ. "And baby makes three!"
Yup talking to you CJ3eb! Keep us posted on the project.
I think its a great transaction. The power train in there was built to handle a lot more than the engine ever dreamed it could deliver. Consequently It will last a long time if maintained. Parts are...
I dare you.... I double dog dare you......
Wow! That's a beauty! Man some detail work there.
Love those 3's. Gear lube comes up once a week. Looking forward to your project!

Its always been the same driver training in a Jeep... In case of emergency, keep driving as long as you can, then hope you are thrown free!
Pics TJ!!! Gotta see this baby.
Speedi sleeves work great. The seals aren't that bad unless someone glued them in.
The leaf package varied a lot depending on what the end use was. Originally the military wanted some capacity....
The real thing the belts provide, is "helping" you stay somewhere near the pedals and the wheel. When you are off roading or maneuvering fast, that can be very challenging. As you pointed out, any...
It looks like the caps were tight. Just in case though, spin it one more time after you torque them.
I would run that. The drive side is good to go. The coast side is a little quirky but not too...
That looks sooo good on the quarter pane! Just like it came down the assembly line with the wheel well all the way back.
Bottom line.... If LarrBeard likes it, its good!
That's LarrBeard's favorite art form.... scrap metal welded up and painted and left on a lawn somewhere! Just kidding, I don't think LarrBeard is a fan! Definitely doesn't take a lot of thought. The...
Yikes the steering box was busted! That puller will do a lot of work. Horrible Freight has just what the DIY crowd needs sometimes.
Man what the heck! It seems like they turn randomly. Sometimes sideways, sometimes upside down, sometimes OK... Sounds like the three bears.
It is level Steve. Though the pictures are not! I cannot figure out how to post a picture straight up.
Steve, I think the 2A and the 3A are in the same place. I am sure we can find some reference points to measure to if you lose the location. gmwillys has had 2A or two or three! I bet he has...
Your welcome Wulfie!
I remember the Bag Phone! I had one of those, 1994.... In a galaxy far, far away!
