Just found you and I love Jane. Working my way (backwards, apparently) through your build. Any current videos?

Back in the 70's Armstrong Trutracs were best all around 2.5 psi at Pismo running bowls etc

I don't blame you for just taking the tires over. You love your jeeps as much as me. I know the feeling.

I’m still playing catch up on watching your videos so I realize this series is several years old but I have to say that CJ5 turned out great. I enjoyed watching the transformation very much. Thank you for sharing this.

I’ve watched this series about Calamity Jane about 3 times now! I’ve been watching your channel for a long time and I enjoy all of your content..but I just love seeing “breathing new life into old iron”! Keep up the great work!

Gotta respect the old metal and new! I currently have three generations of Jeep. Starting with 1968 J-3500 with a Buick 430 swap, a 1981 CJ-7 fully custom rock crawler sporting a 1986 corvette L98 TPI 383 stroker and finally a rather modified 2010 JKU. All of which command a certain amount of respect. Not limiting yourself to one generation Jeep really gives you a respect and appreciation for all Jeeps and 4x4's as a whole.

Awesome job on this!

Could be. All I know is that they are what she came with from the factory. They were a part of the 1974 CJ-5 Renegade package. Took a lot of elbow grease to get them looking good again.

Hey, I have the same key chain!

I need this guy's money.

Them old tires were new.. 🤔🤣 .. perhaps you need to take the Jeep to a real offroad adventure as you have with the new Jeep. Cool Jeep 🙂🤙

I love your CJ-5! I have a '66 CJ-5A. Not nearly as nice as yours. Do you know what is different on the tubs compared to your generation CJ-5 and the ones from the 60s? Poison Spyder only makes the sliders for 1976-1986. Did they change the body that much that they wont fit on a 60s CJ-5?I know the exhaust is different. Mine comes out right in front of the rear tires.

@wayalife

5 жыл бұрын

Early CJ-5's like what you have are shorter. If I recall, from the tub to the front of the fenders is something like 4" shorter. This is why their rocker guards will not work. There are other companies that do make rocker guards that would fit though.

Nice clean 74 CJ. I've had my 73 CJ for 50 yrs. now (original owner) & restored it around the turn of the century. I managed to locate some OEM Renegade aluminum wheels which are 7" wide & I run 33x9.50 BFG ATs. Question: I noticed you replaced your BFGs with 31x10.50 Coops. Are your slot wheels 7" or 8" wide? I always thought the rule of thumb was a tire no wider than 2" over the rim width.....
