That is a great question that requires some explanation. I am sure LarrBeard is out there somewhere and he can elaborate. By the math, it is a question of how much current draw in amp's (105 amps),...
gm is correct. I think your only concern is the charge line.The big wire from the Alt to the battery positive. As LarrBeard pointed out, at least 6 gauge there. Use pure copper wire only. If the...
Nice find there Cat! It looks identical.
That ones long gone in a truck somewhere, shipped out a nice blown stroker that was well over 800hp just last month. It was put into a Cadillac! I have one going together right now that is designed...
Hahaha! Definitely not your M O gm. We can set you up in an LS that's for sure.
gm you need to get a hold of tat Scout! Those mid 60's were cuties. I know you can restore it. $30K restored but, I bet it would go for way more at auction.

You are going to love that top when you get it working. If you are actually using it as a Jeep, you cant beat having a top in the rain and/or cold.
Catlewis have you looked into a good re-chromer? These guy's are probably one of the best. https://www.tricityplating.com/ I have no idea of the cost. Google Bumper "Re-chroming and Straightening".

The 48' looks and runs like it just came out of dealer prep for delivery in 1948. Nice time machine Larry!
35 MPH is a great speed for the old CJ's. Mine likes 35 to 40. Nice speed to see the world!
Here is another source for the Tee in case it is 1/4" brake fittings. It should be 3/16" originally as gm indicated. You could install one of these anywhere in the brake line, preferably near the...
I would return the mechanical switch. The hydraulic activation is so simple, it takes all the work out of it. Just install the pressure switch in the system right at or anywhere inline with the...
The color of the wires started out white and black, and that's it! There weren't a lot of circuit's in the 40's. A reprint of the actual 1965 manual might have something better with the 65' color...
The 65' seems to be vague to say the least! I couldn't find anything much better than the repro service manual (which was reprinted in 1965). It is the schematic pictured in this eWillys link below....
Running the drag strip with your vintage Jeep is an easy pass. Put your flags all on, turn on your lights and roll up to the start line. No burn out. Stage, and gently engage the clutch at the green...
Not a bad price for a good upholstery job. It is getting Very difficult to find upholstery shops anymore, let alone those that are craftsman.
Working at the Dragway..... Awesome way to spend the...
Nice Cat! I like the upholstery job. The windshield gasket can give you blisters that's for sure.
I think you posted that frame graft gm!
Having a complete drive train that is original is a major part of the game 56'. Those pieces will always be "gold". If your going to play with classic...
A few parts in there both you boy's! 56' right off the bat "I spy" an original oil filter canister.
And just like that......

I have one from KW. I had good luck with it so far. They will take it back no question if it is defective. You may want to try a KW if it is your master giving you trouble. I have seen some master...
If you are sure you have all the air out, don't disregard the new master cylinder. Seems to be a rash of those lately that are defective.
All of it! On mine the "arms" had to be cut off and re-welded in the correct position, as the entire windshield was too far to the drivers side. The glass did not fit. It had to be ground down by a...
