My first vehicle! 1956 CJ5

Your old metal lines should be pretty good, but check the flares to make sure you don't have any fatigue cracks.

I had one drip at the upper flare and that lets oil crawl down the line and get blown over a lot of other things.

Well, unfortunately some lines got broken off due to the fitting being seized on the flare.


Thanks, Bob, I think I'll get some of those, save a bit of time.

I got a box of parts today!!!

And I got bearings that were packaged in 1956, what a coincidence, My first NOS parts!

Good stuff '56! Its Christmas time for Flossy. NOS parts are the best.

Wow!

Pistons without holes, chips or wallowed out ring grooves.....

When you start getting new parts, the project starts to get real again.
