    Joshua Tree National Park and surrounding BLM area

    Hard door reassembly - curved release rod attachment question.

    Hello all, I am finally ready (I think) to reassemble my full hard doors on my 1982 Scrambler. I didn't take great pics when I disassembled them. I have read a number of threads, including @spankrjs on the reassembly and have one question that didn't seem to be covered. How does this nylon...

    CJ Wiper Motor Spacer/Gasket?

    Does a stock CJ-8 Windshield Wiper Motor have a spacer like the black one below on @spankrjs picture? Mine looked like this when I tore it down. No gasket/spacer: The previous owner must have done some work on it as the VIN plate is bent up as you can see. Maybe they left off the...
