Wheels and tires. Ride height is pretty close to final. So this is an accurate mockup of stance.

"One project at a time!"
My wife yells that at me all the time.

Well, unless she wants me to do something for her…
Seriously, this is like project 101. Take on one big project at a time. I know this, so I'm now deep into two frame off Jeep projects. At least I talked myself out of 3/4 Linking the GPW. ..
For now.
Oh and a Kubota diesel swap.
For now.
If you want to keep a mechanical clutch linkage AA make this chain drive linkage that I used on one of my older CJ's.

I promised myself this was not going to happen. But with the engine, trans, and transfer-case freshly rebuilt and ready to go back into the willys, I convinced myself it will be so much easier to just pull the body. This does give me the chance to fix some broken things on the frame. For example the front frame horns are mangled and roughly cobbled together and the rear pintle support is completely broken. I can address these issues as well as a few upgrades like a dual master cylinder and a saginaw style steering box. I promise, I will get back to the TJ soon.

Somebody can't do simple!
I've got a mind full of upgrades for this Jeep. 3 link, maybe radius arm front utilizing 2.0 air shocks, it's light enough. 4 link rear... Trailing arm with cantilever shocks. Overly complex just for fun. Kubota diesel, large turbo, pto over drive, terra low gears. All while maintaining a stock appearance. It's ridiculous.
