Back yard yj build

[spraypaintman]

thanks man! need to get my 350 motor next with a 350/203 from 3mco on the board here! Hopefully he'll sell it to me! Then I need to find a 205 to complete the doubler!

u put it in garage yet? if ya need help gettin it in there give me a shout!

 

[spraypaintman]

Not in the garage yet. Thanks I'll let you know if I need some help! Also if you need some tube bent up we could have some brews and bend some tubing!

 

[spraypaintman]

Got some sweet LED tail lights! These suckers are bright!!!

 

[userbmx1315]

doubler in a yj? how long is your shaft going to be ? 2"? not just low but stupid low haha

 

[spraypaintman]

Yeah low gearing is nice! I may do a 231 doubler. Also will stretch the front out with some longer springs maybe waggy, s10, Dakota or xj springs and an astro van steering box.

 

[spraypaintman]

Got a cj5 tailgate to go onto the yj...old school metal!

[spraypaintman]

Thanks guys now I need to fab up some latches or chains for it.

A few days ago I picked up a chevy v8 tbi motor, 350 auto and 203 t-case! Not sure if I'll have the room for a doubler but we shall see. Now I need to find a 205 t-case with 32 splines.

 

[Bullardbs]

anything new on yours? i traded my 38.5s for some 44 tsls so going to go with those now and got some fox 16" shocks for the rear so about to start with the rear axle set up soon.

 

[spraypaintman]

Sweet man you have some nice axles too those things are set up right. Have not worked on mine recently but hopefully this week I'll knock some stuff out. I might do a 203-d300 doubler with a 4.6:1 low.

thanks i think so too. i would love to set up a doubler but will have to see

I bought a 305 tbi motor but not sure if I'm going to run it. I've heard boat anchor too many times already ...LOL

350/203 - the 203 is huge!

also got an 8500lb Superwinch to use on my trailer and jeep...

and HEAVY! I had one in my old Blazer. I think they are over 200lbs.

 

[Bullardbs]

that winch would have been nice to have when we loaded up that cj5

 

[spraypaintman]

Yeah it's really nice having the winch to pull things up onto the trailer!

I got a j10 amc20 rear axle with 4.56 Yukon gears, chromoly shafts & full spool. Need to get some gears for the front now. It will be replacing my rear dana 44 axle. It was off set to the passenger side too far. The amc 20 is also wider at about 65" my dana 44 is about 60" wide so I'll be gaining a good bit of width and it will match the front axle!

gears look good!

bearings look good...

cj amc 20 underneath with smaller tubes and weak two piece axles..

 

[drkelly]

Nice score!

 

[Bullardbs]

That's a nice axle you got there

 

[paradisePWoffrd]

The fullsize 20s are alot better but i would truss it & weld the tubes more just for safe measure

[spraypaintman]

Thanks guys! The axle tubes are welded to the housing already so that's knocked out. I may also do a truss on it. It has an 8 7/8" ring gear on it! Not bad!

 

[spraypaintman]

I did a cj front end conversion yesterday!
