I'm thinking about swapping a CJ-7 (or possibly a CJ-5, since I know where a cheap body is) body onto my '85 K5 frame. Of course the Jeep tub will have to be cut out behind the rear wheelwell.

The goals are: added tire clearance, reduced weight, better rocker clearance (narrower body). Does anyone have pics of a rig like this or know somebody that's done it already?

Thanks
