dscription

Just wrapped up Greg’s 1984 CJ7. This was a special value package CJ. He is from back east, and it was a rusty, crusty mess! Man, this is all a CJ needs to be. We did not rebuild the motor as it ran great and had good compression. A re-seal, and it was good. We swapped the T-4 for a T-5 5-speed, LOTS of rust repair, and repainted it back to its original grey. The seats and top were all in good shape, so they were reused. A replacement (stock height) CJ spring set was installed, but it sat way too high. So we asked the customer, and he said, "Let’s do bigger tires," so a set of 33’s on restored wheels was installed, and just a lift shackle in front did the trick to clear and level the Jeep. (Still unsure why it sat like it did, and no, the rear were not HD units.) Yes, we did the wheels in white as that’s how we got it. Honestly, this is a great, great driving Jeep. Just looks right, drives right, and does all that a CJ needs to do! Thanks again, Greg. I know you are gonna be smiling ear to ear! Oh, and yes, we painted the master cylinder after I got back from pics LOL!
