CJ Jeep Radio Size?
Here's one for ya'. I got a '76 CJ-7 and want to put a radio in it.
(Okay, Bill I know "Real Jeep's don't have radios! Haha! Just gotta stir the pot.) But does anybody still make 'em? What's the style of radio head? Just don't know what to search for on the net. I've got a radio from a Comet but it's still too big and the only other box I got's a Roadmaster, which is fine in terms of quality. Other than that, what'd you do for a stereo? Drink |
Re: CJ Jeep Radio Size?
Hi James,
If you go fifty miles from nowhere like have to, here in Southern California to go off road, you'll find the old AM radio will be the only until that works. Try for a space under the seats.

Re: CJ Jeep Radio Size?
Bill! Are you serious?
1.) There are lots of radio opportunities around here. Even in the desert. 2.) He has a standard radio cut out in the dash for any of the off-the-shelf head units on the market today. 3.) Assuming trouble getting a radio station in the middle of nowhere, it is next to impossible to NOT find a radio today that is without a cassette or CD. I would NEVER put a radio where I could not see and operate the controls EASILY. |

If cutting your dash is not an option, there are a number center consoles that have space for a stereo. Just make sure the stereo can handle the moisture content present in most CJs. My Scrambler switches to a bikini top in the summer, so after burning about about four radios (for the price of one - that'll teach 'em to sell me an extend warranty at Sears :), I went to Cabelas and bought a Kenwood marine radio. It's about five years old now, and has been through high water and rain. It rarely skips, even off road. The only problem is that the CD eject mechanism now sometimes needs a little help (not bad for its age and abuse). Marine radios costs quite a bit more than a feature equivalent non-marine stereo, but I'll never put a non-marine stereo in my Scrambler again. -- Michael White "To protect people from the effects of folly is to fill the world with fools." -Herbert Spencer |

Re: CJ Jeep Radio Size?
There's actually a fair aftermarket available for 'classic' car radios. Check out http://www.customautosound.com/ Sometimes you can find old radios on Ebay. That's where I picked up an AMC in-dash AM/FM/CB radio for my old '79 CJ7. |

Re: CJ Jeep Radio Size?
My 86's dash has a template inserted to fit a "Jeep" radio. With this
removed, I have a rectangle hole that fits a standard single height push in radio. The kind you insert the box frame into the dash and slide the radio into the box frame that they sell as a standard size at any stereo shop. I have a removable face stereo installed that my wife picked up off the shelf. I also have bought radios that insert directly to the dash. The kind that come with various templates to fit various holes.

The XM was never used in the Jeep, not that that matters. I'm pretty sure
truckers are using satellite these days, and a relative few of them rely on the AM band. But, that is beside the point.
