cj on tj frame
 
there were titling issues on the cj8 i purchased that i was not willing to
accept. my search for a cj8 project build isnt progressing, so im
considering a cj7 build. my search for a cj7 frame is also moving slowly.
i found a tj frame/suspension/axles that i can pick up very reasonable, and
am wondering how difficult it is to put a fiberglass cj body on a tj frame.
thanks,

Hi Sandman,
I see we're in a good trolling form. :-) As you know you need an
open frame, that will never rust out:

together for good flexibility, like the big boys:

I'm going the other way. Two Cherokee frames (74 and 75) welded together to
make one fully boxed frame, but the new inner sides not attached to the
cross members to allow some movement without cracking. I will paint it after
i figure out the body mounts to carry a Jeepster C-101 body. Rust is not a
consideration, as it has enough holes to allow drying and I expect metal
fatigue will give this thing a max life of ten years before the whole rig
needs to be replaced

I'm riding up the NorCal coast this weekend, but next weekend the suspension
and axles get put on.
