    1985 cj7

    Reply's have been sent to my spam folder so I have not checked the thread. I mainly run the dunes with my jeep, some light trail riding. The cage is a poison spider cage and I added some tubed gussets in some spots. I also used some 1" square tubing to make seat mounts so they are tied into the...

    1985 cj7

    BUMP. This thread should be more usefull with it's pictures. On a side note I am a Admin on another site, myself and my mods usually delete the post with no pictures when there is duplicate threads and one has no pictures. But I see for some it is easier to just make smartass comments...

    If I were to buy a new one, does anyone know where I should go to start my search? And what year and type(GM) can I use? Thanks in advance.

    CJ-7 Steering column issues

    Thank You!! The pulling yourself in by the wheel sounds like the reason for the problems I am having. So I take it you need a puller to get to the problem areas? Or at least a make shift one?

    CJ-7 Steering column issues

    Well the tilt part of my 85 CJ-7 feels like it is ready to fall off. Whats the best rout. Fix this one or buy a different one? I have not taken it apart so I do not know what it looks like inside. Nor do I have a clue as to what it should look like...LOL... On a side note I just got done with...

    Need Help!

    I have a 85 CJ7 with a 1992 Chevy 4.3 CPI W motor in it. I bought the jeep with this setup. The electric in line fuel pump went out. The jeep is about 5 hours away from me at my uncles house. They are not very mechanical and thus they can't remove the fuel pump that is in it. Does anyone know...

    Crooked rearend?

    Well I should get the jeep back today or on Saturday. The estimate is 15-16 hours for the straightening of the frame. BTW it was 4" to 4-1/2" bent to the passengers side. See one of my first pics and now I can see it plain as day.

    Crooked rearend?

    Well the frame is bent. On Wednesday it goes on the rack and I will find out the damage. The drivers side has 1" body spacers. The passenger side had the makeshift body lift parts so the body sat straight. Never noticed it with the skinny tires on it. I guess it is buyer beware. And the airman...

    Crooked rearend?

    Well I know I need to at least put on a new body lift. After looking at the body mounts I have a good feeling that this is a major part of the problem. 1st... Is of the passenger rear body mount. 2nd... Drivers body mount. 3rd... Passenger mount in front of wheel. 4th... passenger side body...

    Crooked rearend?

    I measured the rims last night. BTW I am a HE....LOL.... The one pic is my daughter sitting in the jeep. I know what you are saying about the physical variation in the side view but it runs pretty straight and I can't find anything else but the jacked up and missing mounts on the passenger...

    Crooked rearend?

    The body looks jacked up. I can see about 1/3" of the rear vertical frame rail or what ever it is called on the passenger rear by the gas cap. And the body is about 1/8" over that same bar on the drivers side. Now how hard is it to put a new body lift on a jeep?

    Crooked rearend?

    First off, what is the difference between a AMC20 wide track and a narrow track? I am starting to think frame. But it looks so so clean and straight to the naked eye. Never thought of that. And I did find something when I looked. The rear body lifts on the passenger side are leaning forward a...

    Crooked rearend?

    First off thank you for all the input I have been getting. I checked from the back of the drum to the side of the leaf, and both sides are within 3/8 of and inch of each other. Here are more pics. 1st one shows that breather line? 3rd and 4th shows my original measurements. It sits off set to...

    It has one piece after market axles on it. What brand I have no idea. Will do, thank you. Any idea on what that venting tube is? I will post the pictures.

    Crooked rearend?

    Thank you. No they do not, they look brand new. The guy I bought it from said he just put new leafs in the back a few months back. I just got it down off of stands. A LOT of axle grease all over the inside of the passenger side brake drum. I measured from the pumpkin to the leaf spring u bolts...

    Crooked rearend?

    It has the AMC 20 in the rear. How can I check the axle? It has one piece axles in the rear. I am getting a full cage and paint. I want to make sure it is not the frame before we tie it in to it.
