Wow I just read your last post----so you gave up and parted it all out. Reason I'm PMing you, I was looking for some friendly advice. I have a 78 CJ5 and a 78 wagoneer, about $500 in both rigs---I came across you thread about a month ago when I was planning on doing the almost exact thing you did. So far I've removed the Waggy body from the frame and started stripping it down. The CJ5 is still complete and running---it's a rust bucket and in pretty rough shape except for the engine and running gear. My question for you, with your hind sight---should I just use the waggy axles and springs and use the cj5 frame---stretch it, (the fram and tub) and outboard the spring perches or still use the waggy frame and work all the tub supports. Any thoughts would be apprecated. If you like you can shoot me an email at

Thanks,
Dave
