Because the frame is about 8″ higher than stock and due to the frame changes, I had to reroute the brake lines underneath the frame rather than through the middle of the frame. Another advantage of this system is that I can use standard CJ-5 flexible brake lines, which reduces my costs. I considered a variety of bracket ideas, but finally developed the following:
These two brackets were cut from flat steel, drilled and then bent.
Next, I put it against the frame to figure out the exact position.
Next, I welded them to each side of the frame. You can’t see it from the pic, but I drilled a hole near the bottom of the bracket so I could fill in the hole and weld the bracket to the frame. I also welded the top of the bracket to the frame.
And here’s the passenger side with paint and everything tightened.
It looks pretty stock. I can’t tell if it runs or not.
“runs well, drives ~90% original, fixer-upper. since I took these pictures I have painted the hood and wheel wells to prevent rust, it is the same color as seen in the pictures.
$3300 OBO.”
Here’s a package deal for $1500. Might be a pretty good deal at that. Both appear pretty complete.

It’s pretty rough for the asking price.
“All original CJ3 runs and drives excellent no problems.”
It looks like it’s got some good upgrades. It’s likely priced a bit high.

This is nicely ‘restored’, but there is some customization. The body is an aftermarket body and the builder added a few modern updates to the dash, including the radio. It appears to have a nice PTO setup.
“I am listing this Jeep for a friend of mine. This Jeep was a maintenance vehicle at the Federal center in Colorado all of its life until the restoration. I assume this is a willies, but not sure.

It’s not in the greatest of shape, but it is a running MB that doesn’t look all that bad. This seller has this CJ-2A and this M-38 for sale.
