I forgot about the D44 differential as well.
They were among extra parts that came with the '59 CJ5 that I bought last September. Included with them were an F134 cylinder head, an older transfer case and bell housing. Transfer case is the...
White wire from alternator/regulator goes to one side of two-wire bulb, then to ignition switch ( amp light on speedo ). The other two-wire bulb is for oil pressure sensor ( one wire from oil...
I have a pair of used leaf springs. Unable to figure out what they were on. They're 13 leaf and 46" length. Also threaded greasable shackles are still attached. Any help would be appreciated.
Yes, this guy did good work. The time involved was extended, but I think it was all due to the Covid19 hype. His supply chain is all effected by the issue. The wait was worth it, however, and the...
Does anyone know of a reliable engine/transmission rebuilder for L134, T90 and D18? Part of the process will involve inspection/repair of a cracked cylinder head. Comes out of a '47 CJ2A. Engine...
Nice ride there TJ!
[QUOTE=LarrBeard;12423]Are we talking about a whole cluster (speedometer, fuel and temp gauges, or just the speedometer).

Thank you. Yes, odd set up for that socket.
$450 apiece. That was after I repaired, painted and replaced parts on the frames/springs. I think it was worth it though. Photo attached

Just received new speedometer with 5 cluster light sockets and bulbs. ( for '59 CJ5 ) One socket has two wires. Help appreciated regarding what hooks up to that. Thanks all!
A lot of whining noise when cruising in 3rd and after shifting to overdrive. Thoughts?
What is the connector that's used from sending unit to guage? Wire, cable? I'll be using the combination speedometer/guage cluster with indicator/idiot light.
Thank you. The electric unit has its own switch, so I might shut it off after starting. For some reason the mechanical unit works again.
I bought a mechanical fuel pump for my '59 CJ5 through Ebay. I think it failed already. That was confirmed when I hooked up an electric model. The mechanical unit is still on the motor with the...
Thanks again for your time. Good stuff!
I'm assuming that the shift collars are the same thing as "blocking rings". They're the yellow metal material. They are new on each side of the syncro. Clutching teeth looked fine on the gear...
After reinstalling the T90 with new blocking rings and small parts repair kit, trans still slips out of 2nd gear. This occurs when coasting to a stop after downshift, etc. It doesn't happen when...
I just installed an overdrive on my '59 CJ5. This gives me a 4th lever plus the trans, front axle drive in/out and low/high FWD range lever.
HaHa, good point regarding extinguisher. I'm retired FD too! I'll try and post some video later.
Here she is...

What type/weight oil/lube is used with the steering knuckles and how much? I noticed there is a filler plug, and I can't seem to find any info on that. Thanks in advance!
The Bendix starter gear on my '59 CJ5 broke. The rebuilt starter was under warranty, but the outfit that did the work won't cover it. They said that maybe a backfire caused the break. I agreed to...
Yes, I'm willing to accept the "nature of the beast"! It's running great. I'm actually driving the rolling chassis right now complete with wooden seat that I built. I just wanted to make sure the...
Yes, just making sure all around. 9-14 lb
