Hey all,

Just goofin around and I saw this pic of the front grill that had a WILLYs logo stamped on it. I looked on the Kaiser page and to me, all years from 41 on up seemed to have a non...

So the one picture that shows the engine mounts seems to show them mounted equa distant. On the Kaiser site, there is a pic that shows early cj2a frame with front gussets and a later frame without...

Here are additional pictures sent to me. I was pretty convinced that this was a 3A frame, but the one pic of the motor mounts do look like they could be equa distant.

Thanks for the input guys. Here is a little more info. I have a cj2A and would prefer a frame that I could cleanup and paint versus one that I would have to do mods or welding. The one thing I...

So, I have a 48 cj2a. the frame is ugly but has been re-enforced and I have been debating to do a frame change, that is why I am looking around. Did not really want to get into a project when I...

Thanks for the video, That sheds some light. at the very end of the video, he actually showed a cj3a frame and that was not boxed in. I have come across 2 frames that were not boxed in, and...

This guy was slowly breaking things down to sell them. I am guessing the $3500 price was the whole jeep which did not sell. Then there is the frame with engine and transmission for $450. Later he...

So here is one frame I am looking at,

The story goes that the guys dad wanted to build/restore a jeep. They got this frame that had a tub sitting on it. The engine was removed and in pieces,...

Hello all,
as I continue my quest for frames, I have come across some differences that I am wondering if someone can explain.

Update

OK, I pulled the grill off the jeep for better access to the radiator. Then I was able to pull the radiator out of the jeep, There was still some fluid in the lower hose and the lower...

Thanks guys, that's the conclusion I came to, but did not want to admit to it to myself. Keep running into a lot of OH, I got to fix that, and get a new WIDGET, while I am digging into the jeep.

While removing radiator and bringing my coolant to an acceptable level for winter, I discovered there was a small amount of play in my Fan, Is this normal or a sign of something that needs to be...

Thanks for all the info and suggestions everyone.

The current fluid has tested to about -5 F, so I need to do something still. I am struggling as both petcocks are not working or not there. ...

Yes, I have been using chrome for years and years.

In my research, i have concluded the frames of the cj2a and cj3a are the same and can be interchanged.

Can someone with more expertise confirm this.

This is how a short job turns into a long one. LOL.

You did not mention it, but do I need to take the thermostat out? seems to me, I would be blowing against a closed switch. I think I...

Hi,
I have posted a first startup thread and that event fairly well. Got the jeep running, Needs carb clean so it will idle, but ran good from a secondary fuel tank. During that task, it looked...

You would be my kind of neighbor, LOL

Thanks for your input, That is inline with my assessment based on info I gathered. I put a good frame somewhere between 250 and 500 dollars. There was one I was looing at in Michigan with a...
