Where's the supercharger?

Question for you. I have the title from the CJ-7 used on the front half and the title for the CJ-8 used on the back half. Seven has both firewall and windshield frame tags. Eight just has the firewall tag. Both are Oregon titles. Any suggestions on which title to use?

A little update. CJ-7 front section and CJ-8 back section and some new sheet metal makes an extended Scrambler. Just removed the tub in hopes of getting it sand blasted. My usual guy can't do it until summer. Going to bet estimates from mobile blasting companies. Went through my parts and...

I'll have to look and see if it has some letters on it.

I've got a 79 CJ-7 with the Quadratrac set-up parts car and an extra Quadratrac rear end if anyone is interested. It came in some narrow-trac CJs.

Yes. Still got a handfull of them.

If you don't need a new bracket, and you want a nice original one, I can help with that.

Got it back from the welder today. Now it is solid. Did a little grinding since I took these pics. He welded up my fender flare holes. Fortunately I could see where they were, so I drilled them out. Now I will check with the guy that does sand blasting . . . hopefully he still does. That's it...

A tilt column will help.

Finished the passenger side panel wheel well opening and got in in place. Made some patches . . . nothing too exciting. Everything is ready for welding. I can melt it and stick it, but I'll take it to my neighbor and get all the important stuff professionally welded. . .less warping and...

Got the driver side drilled for the fender flare and clamped in place. To form the lip around the fender well, I clamped two pieces of steel plate together and hammered it down. Got the extra body to frame mounts positioned and bolted in place ready for welding. You can see the 3" channel they...

Thanks for the Omix tip. Crown fender flares from JC Whitney and PartsHawk came with YJ rears. Another vendor sells Crown and states that they need modification. Crown must be packaging them this way now.

Fitted a lot of smaller pieces between the two tub sections and covered up a lot with these two panels. Also added two more channels to the underside to tie the sections together. Working on an extra body mount on both sides. I did put the flange on the side panels. Need to drill the mounting...

Got some more done. Cut out more old sheet metal to allow for one big piece to cover each side. Got a 4X8 sheet of 16 guage for $100. This is way less than buying two side panels that wouldn't be long enough. I didn't even see them listed anywhere anymore. Going to shape the fender well flanges...

Got the body back to where all body bolts are in. Floor is matching up better. Underneath I clamped 2 channel iron sections in place to be welded. Had to stop and start leather covering a wheel for a Jeep shop. That's it for now.

Been working on my extended Scrambler. Did the frame awhile back and have a rolling chassis. I cut the cab section off of a CJ-7 and the bed area off a really bad postal tub. Lots of work on the underside replacing sheet metal and caged body mount nuts. All stuff to make the two halves...

It was a smokin' hot deal. And we watched you do it right. New owner is most of the way there without any of the dirty work.

Those are nice covers over what I expect are tow bar brackets. I haven't seen those before.

Yes, some full metal doors had wind wings. Just another place for the wind to whistle. Fixed ones make less noise.

Very cleaver. Others I've seen have just cut off the side of the door. Good thinking!
