I have a 1951 Willys cj3a with a 350 chevy in it. I am building a new frame for it. I will be running 33-35 tires. Not sure on how much lift yet. What do you think about how long i should make the frame?? As in wheelbase. I am also not sure what axles i want to run right now. Mainly it will be for mud and just clumbing with some off camber stuff. Not really for rocks. Also what kinda axles do you think i should run with. RIght now the jeep is all stock with the stock axles and the stock 3speed and t-case.

Hardcore shit right here. I'd aim for a wheelbase of about 227 inches and wouldn't run anything other than 5+ ton shiate. Do you need anyone to swing by and finish the rig up for you also?:shaking:

Naw,227 is a little long.I would go with 200 even.Should have a perfect breakover on 33's!And keep the stock axles.They are the shit!:shaking:

I'd shoot for a 200" wheel base, and as far as axles since you only plan on 33's-35's I would look for a dana 30 front and do a dana 35 with the super 35 kit in the rear and 4-link the suspension.

not really for this forum but if you want mud and hill climbing build one of these bitches. and yea this really isn't hardcore do some research and figure out break over angle vs lift etc etc.
