What is the width of a CJ.I am talking body not axles.I have a CJ-5 body that I was thinking of putting on a Blazer frame.Am wondering what the width is compared to the Blazer.The jeep body is at friends house so I am just trying to figure out if I want to do this or not.Thanks Blazin:rasta:

This is the widths as taken from my CJ Haynes manual.
CJ2A, CJ3A....... 59"
CJ5, CJ6, CJ7....59.9"
Hope this is accurate, and hope it helps.

Is Parachute up for a name change again? (formerly grass valley)or will it stay the same? :) :cool:

late 70s if i remember correctly. i grew up north of there, our ranch was just over the top of the bookcliffs.
by the way, if you do drop the '5 body onto the blazer, way to go! originality is good. shoulda done something like that to my '49 3A before the great city big brother put a move it or lose it tag on it.
good luck with the transformation :beer:
