    Cj-5 and Cj-7 Much room?

    Go with the CJ 7 no question. I had a 77 CJ 5 as my first jeep. I'm 5-10 at 168lbs the 5 was tight for me. The 7 also gives you some rear storge space behind the back seat. Best of luck,

    The difference between a CJ, YJ, and TJ?

    CJ's are tougher and seem to last longer, as well as hold their value better than the products released by Chrysler. I'm not rippin on the newer Jeeps. I think the new TJ looks really sweet. IMO the CJ's are the authentic desirable jeep ;)

    Crank Seal Ventilation Problem?

    Last weekend my CJ7 got locked in 2nd gear. I got it up to the local transmission shop so they could take a look. It seems that I lucked out on this one, gear shift tower jumped out of place. No big deal. My rear main seal as well as oil pan are both leaking and have been for some time. I...

    My 81 CJ7 has the 258 inline 6. After running it even for a minute or so the motor will knock. Is this normal with a plastic valve cover? If not, what are your thoughts? Thanks guys, Beach Jeep
