Build Thread 95's 81 CJ5 rebuild

[gert]

Yeah after the cj is done lol

I think a kayak would be cool. I wouldn't mind a canoe but with a 3 year old and 1 year, I could see them flipping us.

Lol when I was really small I lived in the Netherlands and my parents had a Canoe and they tied me to it so that couldn't jump out

By the time you get the jeep done and canoe built they will be old enough to paddle around with you!

Well the new radiator showed up today, and was so excited on getting it in I forgot to take a picture of it out of the jeep. So you will have to deal with a completed in the jeep shot.


And got some rear brake shoes, so I need to order a drivers side wheel cylinder and I will have everything to compete the rear brakes but new drums.

Sure will! Since it hasn't been started in a little over a year, should I do anything against it maybe scaring the cylinder walls or do you think it will be ok?

Spray some wd40 or similar in each spark plug hole and turn it over by hand a few revolutions or leave plugs out and turn motor over with starter to get oil pressure up and you will be good to go
