    best diesel engine to swap into early-model CJ5?

    Don't know anything about those engines, and google didn't turn-up much. Found this post, and a few more that suggested they might have been used in some military Jeeps? What are these engines all about? EDIT: found a lot more info when I searched for 'Cummins A2300'

    best diesel engine to swap into early-model CJ5?

    Have spent the last few years building this monstrosity of a motorhome, and now that it's almost finished, it's time to start putting together a little Jeep to go with it. Have a fresh Buick 225 V6 and an SM465 and Dana 18 transfercase with a Warn overdrive (25%). But I just put a brand new...

    Pretty slick. Planning on doing something similar on the my M109 box. Nice to see how someone else tackled it.

    RPM vs Speed vs Tire size

    Oh, I forgot about those! They actually are pretty cheap and easy-ish to get, and they're the perfect with to run 11.00's. Tons of them on the surplus market. I just didn't like the offset.

    RPM vs Speed vs Tire size

    No. I looked high and low, and wasn't able to find anything short of custom-made, so modified the stock wheels.

    rear shackle mounting points

    Oh, well the rear shackle mounts on my M109 definitely use smaller pins than the front shackle mounts. So all I need to do is get a newer set of rear shackle mounts?

    rear shackle mounting points

    So the 5-tons used 7/8" rear shackle pins and 1" front shackle pins too?

    rear shackle mounting points

    Are there any other mounting brackets that will work with the same size shackles that are used up front? Maybe off a 5-ton truck or something?

    M109 box on top of drop-side flatbed?

    Well thanks for all the info, but nevermind. That bed went for over $600, which was more than I wanted to pay for it. Would rather spend that monnay on materials to build something.

    Lockout hubs

    Little bit confused Hoefler. What would account for the differences between the A2 and A3 and the way they each handle turns?

    Rear Bumper/Tire rack for M1009

    Those H2 spare tire carriers are the best thing going. Much sturdier than and of the aftermarket swingaway units I've seen.
