Did you change anything to the oil pan or pickup to compensate for the extreme angles you guys are running at?
@Grampas-jeep2 күн бұрын
The stock oil pick up in the L134 Go Devil engine is floating, so it handles steep angles pretty well. No changes required. I have added extra armor to the oil pan.

@Stan. Is the M38 frame the same material thickness as 3A frame? Other than the gun mount is there any additional frame bracing M38 vs 3A?

That looks like a lot of work Stan. After three years I finally got my old cj5 on the road again. Rebuild the 232 straight 6, the transmission and transfer case. She runs good. Looks like you're going to get Grandpas jeep fit for the trail again. Happy wrenching. 😊

Looks good. I would guess in the spirit of Granpa's Jeep that flywheel should cut and go back to work as-is 👍😁.

Stan, I see your upgrading to a winch. Did you find that Unicorn 6v winch or are you going to a 12v system?
@Grampas-jeep3 күн бұрын
Brennan’s Garage can special order 6 volt winch motors for the Bellevue style early winches. If I ever get mine installed and working, it will be one of the first active in the wild.

Love watching your videos , I thought Grampa's jeep was invincible, lol . Anyway, I have an out of context question. What type of gravel do you have in your yard? There are no footprints on it.
@Grampas-jeep3 күн бұрын
Thanks Suzy. This is what I have in our overflow parking area. I like it because it doesn't show dirt like white gravel, and it packs pretty tight. Scroll down the page to the "black slag." www.sandeessoilandrock.com/products/rock/

Good evening sir, I’m enjoying the videos! I love the Jeep flat fenders. Sir while you have the Jeep apart, please, please, install a 4 speed granny tranny. It will help your wheeling and reduce the speed you have to attack the obstacles. Thank you Sir for all you share. God bless you and your family. Looking forward to the trail videos!

Awesome video, Stan. I wish I could have the honor of helping you swap everything over! I definitely owe ya for all the video entertainment you and your friends have provided the world over the last few years 😁👌. My 2a has a later type frame as well. There are a few slight differences as you know and will find, like the body mount bolts under the passenger seat area being different, and a few differences where the front fenders bolt to the frame around the shock mounts as I recall. Nothing that is difficult to fix obviously. Best wishes.
