Re: CJ / Wagoneer
I guess you will have to call me a glutton. 90% of the idea is for the
axles. I don't want to go full width, and I don't want to bother with cutting full lengths down to size, then coming up with custom axle shafts now and if they break. That was the idea with the waggy axles. I am ok with finding new 6 bolt rims, that is an easy one. I see full Wagoneers going for $400 - $500 I was hoping that I could use the axles, maybe the engine, and parting the rest if there is any value left. "L.W.
