Hey folks. Making some slow progress on my CJ. A couple of questions -
Has anyone done a disk brake conversion on their mid-70's CJ5? I am sure many folks have, so please post stories of the parts that you used, gottchya's (to include the common "calipers were supposed to fit stock wheels and didn't so I have to go with XYZ wheels, etc.) (I was bit with this when I rebuilt a 65 Nova...)
Has anyone installed a vacuum power brake booster on a non-boosted CJ? (If so, pieces, parts, gotchyas, etc.)
Anyone with experience with buying / installing complete new body? (pieces, parts, gottchyas (PPG)
Goofy question, but what work would you wish you could do if only the complete body was off, just frame running gear, wheels? (as you can see on the accompanying photos, I am in a position to do)
Thanks in advance for only information, tips, jokes, whatever.
