cage?

[mmcj7]

This is what I have.



Right now I have tested fitted it in the cj and started cutting back some of the tubes. I have left enough to go back and weld to later. My question is should I try to tie it into the frame or just bolt it to the inner fender and the front floor pans? I have cut the floor out of the cj because of rust and will be fabricating a rear pan, inner fenders and rear body supports out of .080 mild steel. I'm looking for suggestions and pics. Thanks in advance

I have not worked with a CJ, But you should tie the Cage to the frame, at the A and B pillars along with in the back. You can use rubber or poly bushing if your concerned with vibes. I tied mine in solid and I have some vibes from the motor.

here is a tie in with a bushing

Or solid Tie In

Oh and the cage you have is a very good starting point

That helps...How bad is the vibes? I'm use to rattles and a little shake because its a cj. lol

Not bad, I have some pretty solid poly mounts my engine, it had vibes before the cage, Being its a 4 banger tend to vibe worst than the 6s. I don't even notice it anymore.
