How is your Jeep going to be used? I have made some 1/4 in. plates that go underneath the roll bar since it had rusted out underneath it. Those are bolted in. It doesn't look pretty at all, but it really stiffened up the body panels and my floor.
If your floor is beyond repair, I would do as...
It should say right on the side, that is, the driver side of the float bowl. I think 304's have 1.23. I'm not sure, though.
Way to go for tearing into it! :shades:
I must say, that is a nice Jeep. I wouldn't change out the axles, but I have a narrow track Dana 30 sitting in the garage... :shades:
Just kidding, you wouldn't want that piece.
I can rebuild my carb in under 15 minutes. The only really small part is the discharge ball. It looks like a stainless bb. Those MC2100's are simple, really.

You don't have to take the steering knuckle off, but you will have to take off your brake and hub assembly. That includes the spindle.
Have you heard about the new Jeep Yukon? It has a 4:1 transfer case, 5.38 gears, locked Dana 60 high pinion axles with front lockouts and a factory four link rear end.
Oh yeah, it has "Yukon" on the hood since it is a trim package.
:deadhorse:
Sorry, I didn't pay attention to the original post.
I would probably make my own hitch mount and weld that to the rear crossmember. That way, you could have two hitch mounts. Yay.
By the way, how thick would you say that front bumper is?
That looks like it is welded onto the frame rails. If it is, it should be strong.
The weird thing is that it looks like the body is welded to the rear bumper with stitches. Is the body fiberglass or is the rear metal?
My case has a distinctive feel to pop it into gear. Try moving it all the way forward, then try to push it farther forward since you said all the way forward seemed like 2.
