I have a completely good running, rebuilt 258 with 0.030 overbore, mild cam, and hedders and a crappy 1bbl carb. i'm going back to a MC2100. problem is the only MC2100 i have left on my shelf is 1.21 venturi. Is it possible to convert that carb to 1.08 or is that built into the body of the carb ?

I have my Scrambler for 13 years, an '81, 360 w/Edlebrock 4bbl, T-176, Dana 300, 31" tires with 4" lift and Warn 8274. Now I'm building as a frame off resto-mod, my wife's which is an '85. She will have to have an automatic trans. Very little lift...I'm swapping out my 356 axles for her 411's...

I not sure there is anything i can do about this but I just finished getting my '85 back on the road and when I installed my seats the passenger side, which is flip forward seat, is further forward and higher than the drivers seat. It makes it very uncomfortable, is there another bracket for...

I saw a write up about how to remove an ignition lock cylinder but cannot find it now. My '81 has dropped some lugs or something and I cannot get key back in it. Anyone know where this thread might be? PLMK, Thanks, Drew

Anyone have a template for those holes in the dash to install a factory clock and tach? Does such a thing exist? PLMK, Thanks, Drew

What are people doing for wider flares on a CJ8? (4" - 6" or so) I do not want to cut up my Scrambler for a set of flares but there must be another solution. I've tried YJ, Xenon, Bushwacker and nothing seems to fit without modifying my tub, unless I'm not looking at this right. Thanks, Drew

Isn't there supposed to be a gasket or some rubber seal between the 1/2 hardtop and the bulkhead? I've not been able to find one, or even find one advertised. What do yall use? My roll bar seatbelt mount holes are about 3/4" high on the seatbelt holes in the top and this seems evidence that...

Trying to figure out how to remove this hawse fairlead on a Warn 8274 on my CJ winchplate mount....face of fairlead bolt looks solid and is smooth on the front and flush with the surface so can't get a screwdriver or wrench on it, and square nut on rear is nestled down in the ribs of the winch...

OK, I just put a half hardtop on my Scrambler and it looks really good. But the uppers that before fit on top of my YJ half doors and my soft top do not fit with my hard top. Is there a soft upper that will fit with the half hardtop? Anyone know? Surely as popular as the half hard doors are...

Is the 1/2 hardtop windshield bracket available? (aftermarket / OEM) I just noticed that the old top I just bought does not have one. This is the piece that must bolt to the top/inside of the windshield frame to hold down the top to the windshield frame. I overlooked this when I bought it. I...

How many sizes of 1/2 cab hard tops were made by AMC? I've just purchased one with a huge hole for a back window and I've seen them with a much smaller hole. Mine is drilled for shoulder belts. Now my real question, when ordering a sliding rear window, is there more than one size to be...

I have some side rails I got from firemanhank but my '81 did not come with them so my tub and rollbar have no holes to mount them. I've got to drill some holes I know, but ? is do the holes in the rollbar that accomodate the side rails forward have sleeves welded in them or are they just bolt...

How much lift will 2.5" wide stock YJ rear springs give on the front of a CJ ? Due to my MORE shackle reversal on my Scrambler I need 2.5" front springs but don't want as much lift as I have now. I have removed my front springs which are Old Man Emu springs with about 4" lift, but only want...

What year did they first put Wide Track axles in Scramblers ? Did they put NT axles in CJ8's at all ? Drew

What do others do when they run wide tires ? My stock CJ flares aren't wide enough, I've tried the TJ rears and they do not fit either. I"ve actually got some Xenon CJ-7 flares and the front works great, but not the rears. I don't want to cut any sheet metal either just to make some fit. Just...

Have a friend in El Paso who is going to look at a 1975 Jeep CJ-8. Now after the daze wore off he read me the title information. It does say 1975 Jeep CJ-8. He's going to look at the jeep this weekend, give me VIN# info, measurements, view the frame, etc. I've have 2 Scramblers, a '81 and...

Need to buy or see a detail picture ( so I can make one) a spare tire carrier bracket that mounts on the rollbar. Mine had one before I got it but it's now gone...I don't want to mount my spare on the rear, spent too much time stripping and repainting my tail gate and spent too much money on a...

I have an '85 with Original soft top. I have all the hardware with the exception of a center cross bar that extends across left to right over the doorway. The reason I know I'm supposed to have one is that the top shows wear there where one was. I could have one fabbed but wanted to try for...

Anyone have a source for the correct hoses that go between fill tube and gas tank? Collins does not, Let me know. Thanks, Drew
