1977 CJ5 Jeep
Chevy 350
ARB air lockers front and rear
Dana 44 axles
S.O.A. lift w/ crown 5 leaf packs
shackle reversal in front

I Bought my Jeep in 2002 while stationed in Seattle. She was stock except for a Chevy 350 swap, 33" tires, and a shackle lift. I performed a spring-over lift and shackle-reversal in the front using sftermarket Crown 5 leaf packs for YJ's. I swapped the rear axle (Dana 20) for an International Scout Dana 44 rear end and installed an ARB air-locker. I swapped the front axle (Dana 30) for a cut and narrowed Chevy half-ton front axle which got the same air locker treatment.

I rebuilt the Jeep in 2005. I installed a new crate 350 (now broken from street-racing), new interior, 5 new body panels, new gauges, and a down periscope horn. since i had to move back to Texas from Seattle, my four wheeling has been scarce. I decided to paint her. I sprayed her with Sherwin Williams "Planet Color" paint. She recently recieved a Tuffy lockable center console and new Besttop soft top.

My next mod(after the engine fix)is to take some gear out of it. It was fine in Seattle but here in commuter hell Dallas, its kind of a pain. And the gas mileage is terrible.
