Lots of updates here, though I can’t tell if the suspension has been updated.

Treadwright Tire Review from IH8MUD.com

• CATEGORIES: News This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Here’s a positive review of some retread tires from the IH8MUD website.

In other news, IH8MUD purchased Rockcrawler.com in October. IH8MUD, led by Brian “Woody” Swearingen, plans to take over the site, as well as related domain names, content and Service Marks and move forward with new ideas, a new layout and plenty of new information and content.

Reader Builds: Phil shares some pics of his CJ-3A

• CATEGORIES: Builds This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

I received an email from Phil last night with pics of this beautiful flattie attached.  The jeep is a 1952 CJ-3A with a 4.3l Chevy Vortex with a C4 Auto and Dana 20 with a Terra Low gear set.

It also has a 44 frt and a 9″ Rear with ARB’s.  I’m sure with that drive train he has all that he needs to explore the areas near his northwest home.

In the last two pics you’ll note the custom tranny/tc cross member.  Phil built this and has added a skid plate that extends from the engine back past the transfer case.  Thanks for sharing Phil!

Website: 1950 Bantam Trailer Idea Factory

• CATEGORIES: Website This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

As mentioned in the post above, I found Mike’s website related to the sale of his CJ-6 and trailer.  He documented both the updates he made to his jeep and updates done to the trailer.  He’s implemented a number of creative ideas to support the modern family’s use of a trailer.  I highly recommend browsing the website for ideas.

1962 CJ-5 + 2nd Jeep Floresville, TX **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: CJ5 • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000

That’s one dirty windshield!  The jeep looks rust free on the outside. This might be a good deal if the jeep will start.

“1962 Willys CJ5, been parked under a shed for 10 years. When parked was in running condition, motor and transmission are both original. Have title. A second 1962 Willys CJ5 is also incuded, it is in pieces and was being used for parts, all parts are still with jeep. Great for someone looking for a restoration project.”
