So I started taking the CJ7 apart, and realized the whole body is pretty well shot. I have looked around( central Illinois) looking for a yj tub but cant find a good one. Anyone out there bought a replacement tub, cost, and what kind of obstacles will I run in to?
 
Obstacles will be making an aftermarket tub fit. I have replaced fenders a couple of times and it is not just a bolt on and go. There will be opening up clearance holes, cutting and trimming, moving things around with a hammer, and a lot of cussing. Good luck!
 
Yes, the CJ and YJ tubs are a little diferent, But you can make them work if you have any fabrication skills. Rear tub mounts and tailgate are diferent but can be remedied with a little work. Do a web search and if you decide to go that route there's a lot of help with it right here on this forum.
