Priced it out the job to mill and turn a 1.40" rod with a .75" slot and it's going to run about $35 a piece. Once you factor in the plate mount, it will be $100 total. Of course this is for a single car, so it's probably the cheapest option. Unless others were interested in the aluminum...

I will ask if they can do what you mentioned. If so, it would be cheaper than routing the design from one block. Hopefully!

The diameter of the frame hole is 1.40"; tube is not made to this O/D size (to my knowledge). Size is key because you want this tube to fit snugly into the hole to prevent play. Also, you probably can't see it but the inside hole inside the tube is elongated to fit the heim joint vertically...

Those of you that have looked up how to built DIY adjustable strut rods have probably seen this website.... http://dazed.home.bresnan.net/adjustable. But, much to my disappointment, the website took down their instructions on the strut rods because of concern over the hardware used to attach...

No A/C but i will still have a heater. I'm looking at using something like this: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/vta-506101/overview/ It will take up much less room - I should be able to mount it under the dash, and hide the lines from the block somewhere along the fender apron. over the...

That's the plan!! I took some mock-up pictures of the stance i'm after (don't laugh! i work with what i have!). The 'custom wheel' is 28" wide which should equal a 20" with 315s (30 or 40 sidewalls - i can't remember now). Actually since this picture I've raised the car another inch or two -...

I'm traveling for work so I'm waiting on the wife to take the pictures. I should have them tonight

i don't have pictures at the moment but I'll make sure to post some tonight. It looks like shipping will be in the $30 to $40 range using UPS (including packaging). Is $100 total fair?

I'm selling my spoiler off my 71 coupe. Doing a resto-mod on the ol' girl and removing the spoiler completely. It's in good shape and comes with mounting hardware. Just make an offer. I'm located in central Arkansas but will ship anywhere.

I've been back and forth on ideas to create more room for bigger tires on my 71 coupe. I've thought about fabing up some mini-tubs but I don't want to lose my rear seat if possible. So my latest idea is to cut out the section of the factory wheel tub that archs down and is spot welded to the...

WOW...Just wow! That is one amazing car dude! Great job.

Oh wow! lol! That's a great picture...Before kids I couldn't care less about safety. Man, things change with kids!

Not the entire quarter - Just the lower section behind the wheel. The reason I'm working on the B pillar is because someone along the line has applied about 1" worth of bondo over the lead seam. And all the metal behind this bondo has rusted out. Thankfully the rust stops about 1" above and...

Hey guys, I'm started much needed rust repair on the B pillars this weekend, when I noticed what looks like lead filler between the roof skin and quarter panel. I'm guessing this seam was probably lead filled from the factory, and I'm thinking some of you guys have ran across this too. I'm...

I actually was about to post the exact same question...I'm looking at the body assembly book on CJ here - http://www.cjponyparts.com/body-assembly-manual-1971-1972/p/BKAM41/. One thing to consider - CJ Pony has free shipping on this book.
