Body bolts
I about to lift the body off the frame of my 93 wrangler. But three bolts
will not move. Two are just plain tight the other is spinning. I can not get to the nuts/plates to stop them from spinning. Any suggestions or help? Thanks, Dennis |
Re: Body bolts
I wish you luck.....
Not one came out of my old CJ7's body... Got lucky and snapped a few, but the rest spun and I had to grind the heads off the bolts. Tried a sawsall through the mount, but the rubber ruined the blades too fast. I am just thankful I got to toss the old body in the trash....

Re: Body bolts
Yep good luck! After having several jeeps and doing restorations and
repairs I took every body bolt out of my 04TJ put anti-seize on the threads and put them all back and I mean every body bolt.

Re: Body bolts
Whereabouts would you be hanging your ass off that overpriced chunk of
plastic? Behind the catwalk? Hell, if you're deadheading, you could always grandstand a bit by planting your south-end right on the 5th-wheel! Drop your load off AND equally distribute grease, all in one sitting. You'll get an 'attaboy' from the dispatcher for such efficiency! And if I'm around, I'll take a picture and sell copies...and make us both rich! (LOL) |

Re: Body bolts
Hi JD,
You're thinking of another of my posts. This sleeper probably has a commode. But sh*t does happen, usually while I was loaded, in the middle of traffic, and if you're ever pulled sixty five foot trailers you know you don't want to chance there's not a return ramp. So we use the emergency lane and try to out grin the gawkers. This may be handy for your hitch: http://www.bumperdumper.com/art/road8.jpg I use my Real Jeep front bumper.

MUHAHAHAHA!!! A bumper-dumper! I love it! Beats balacing on a frame
