GTO has a 428 in it. Original was 400. 455 wasn't available until 70

I took off a few pieces off of the front end. As I took off each piece, I was noticing how often I kept saying to myself, "I probably need a new or better one of these." My CJ7 front suspension.webp
 
That's basically everything. Hows the frame?

I was pleasantly surprised at how good the frame still was. This weekend, I'm thinking of looking at everything I should do while it's all apart. Maybe yj springs, high steer, new shocks and shackles. I'm taking the axle to ECGS for a pinion bearing replacement, so I'll have a bit of time to research what will be solid improvements. If anyone wants to add what they wish they did while everything was off, I'm listening to suggestions. Thanks.

Replace any and everything rubber or flexible.

Acquired a “Cab Cover” in hopes of using it while trailering. Going over/through the mountains with all the slush on the roads in the spring makes for a nasty interior/dash/inside of glass/etc. Always thought a cab cover sure would be nice.

Couldn’t find a cover that is rated as “towable”, but have seen a few people who have used them as such with an extra strap going across the lower windshield. Sounds like air gets underneath the cover there and pulls it off/causes issues.

So, I found a good cover online with lots of hold down straps. I added some grommets to the lower front edge and will slip a strap/rope through them and cinch it down. Will see how it works if I keep it under 75mph.

I have one like that I forget what brand it's very heavy with multiple tie downs. I've never towed with it though
 
I can see where that would be a great idea. I was thinking if I ever towed mine it would probably have the full top on.
