Hi Guys,
I recently picked up a 1970 CJ5 as a project. A parts jeep came with the deal, it is a 1965 thru 1969 CJ5 or M38A1. The body was junk on the parts jeep so I removed it and scrapped it. I then checked the axle housing for gear numbers and this is what I found 43-8 and 5.38 on the front and rear housing.
Could this be original or were the housing replaced???
