That is sharp! Nice stance. What size tires? 33's?

Sweet! My grand father had a 68...so much fun, wish it was still around.

8" X 17 & a light 1/4"

I always thought a good 2.5" lift and 32x11.5-15's was a great looking combination. I had a CJ-7 set-up that way. Nice rig!

Very sharp! What size tires you running?

That 96 is a beauty. For OP pricing comparison info: I picked up a 2000 XJ 4 dr sport last fall $2800 167,000 miles - came from out west, very solid! has some sun baked paint damage on the roof and minimal surface rust on the underside from spending a few years in the rustbelt (no holes...

Alexa is always listening....evil!

My only comment is the 10" wide wheels, I guess it's doable, but with a 10.5" wide tire I would run an 8" wide rim personally. Congrats on the Alcan route...I've always wanted to go that way or similar...good luck with your re-build!

It might sound crazy, but I got a long overdue weekend in my shop! Been months since I have had the time to do any Jeep projects in the shop between a huge house project and covid crazy work load in our surveying business....so I swapped a set of Rubicon axles under my wife's JKU! (Got them...

Hey all, I have a potential road-trip coming up this weekend to Harrodsburg, KY to pick-up some axles. Anybody live nearby that can give me some recommendations for the area: campgrounds (rustic is preferred, but maybe with a shower house), brewery/distillery, have to see sites, etc. It will...

Bummer. We're pulling for you Toby! Get well soon!

BW - Thanks for keeping us informed........we are pulling for Toby!

Beautiful Commando! Dispatcher magazine has a pretty detailed article going on the history of the Commando spread over the last couple issues.... My Grandfather had a '68.

Oh no! I just, and I mean just bought a set of 4" BDS for my scrambler due to some rear sag and hoping to improve ride. I also purchased the recommended add-a-leaf for the rear packs. I have not put them on yet....but I thought they looked really nice. I hope it was not a mistake! My...

Looks good...what size tire are you turning? I am in the market for new springs on my 8 and also looking at BDS...however the 4" lift. I run 33x10.50.

I'm guessing you are referring to the transmission to bell housing bolts? If so, I would drop the trans and transfer case and heli-coil the bell housing. My guess is it's been that way for a while...like since whoever last assembled it. You're probably OK driving it on the street assuming all...

Wow, that's a real bummer about the super Jeep!

There is a guy on here occasionally that is a Jeep builder out of FL I think. he has built some wicked CJ-8's that look similar...if you surf around on this site you may come across him. I cannot remember his name or what threads, but I wouldn't be surprised if the same guy built that one...

Thanks...have a fair amount of time into the "overland" conversion.

You betcha....it been on my list to post up a thread about it here...if you have any specific questions until then, let me know!
