Hi, I am really thinking of doing a conversion like this for my CJ3A. Overall how much work was it? My wiring is in ok shape so i would only be upgrading the lights (i think) not a whole wiring harness. but that might be a possible option as well.

was their any special problems you ran into?

thanks for any info

Hi. Did not reply to your post. Yes I am sure red was stock. My jeep has Luzon red seat. Still original.  It comes back from the shop this weekend and I can try and get some photos.

Ps have you figured out the seat patterns, I printed them out but I am having a hard time understanding them.

BODY and trim / Windshield gasket lock bead

« on: May 25, 2019, 05:17:44 PM »

So so we went to put the windshield back in an can't find the lock bead. Does anyone have a place to get just the lock. We have the main gasket still and was hopping to not have to buy a whole lot.

Going to double check the garage again but I have a feeling it is long gone.

Yep. Those are the ones I found. I plan to cross ref them with the drivers side I have. Thanks for the info.

I will keep an eye on your post to watch for any progress.

The springs on the driver might be in good shape. Even the covers are ok. The new frame is for the passenger.  The springs are their but rusted out. I was planning to use foam for the cushions.
I don't see a link to the cj2a pattern. But if it is the one I found online. That was my starting place. Right now I don't need factory replacement, just want something very close, I'm not even sure the frame I have is for a 3A, I was told it might be CJ5, but it will be close.

Thanks for any info.

BODY and trim / Seat covers

So I just picked up a passenger seat from a swap meet. And it needs all new covers. Has anyone made their own and have a pattern? I just need to have some thing to last a year or two before doing a full restoration. I want to get it licenced and on the road first.
