found this frame too cheap to pass up, and its one of the best looking cj frames I've ever seen. And they way they date stamp them and the 401 valve covers it'll still be numbers matching (except transmission, tcase, axles, springs, ecm, and maf sensor :D )

I didnt know CJ's had plugs in the frame holes on the side, but they did and this ones got most of them. This was a very unmolested CJ before it got tboned

the truck got t-boned, and the frame is straight? Works for me! Now just find a new tub, and some full widths and your jeep(well a jeep anyway) will be back on the road/trail in no time.

that thing got t-boned? it sure didn't look like it when we were looking at it last weekend, but then again, i was more concerned with figuring out how to get cheap engines from that guy. :D

yeah, passenger side rocker panel is shoved in a few inches. could have been a tree, fire hydrant, big shopping cart. who knows. This thing is odd though, its missing the 2 extra body mounts in the back, maybe they phased that out in the late 70's instead of an exact year.
