CJ3A FRAME VS M38 FRAME
« on: May 18, 2015, 07:38:37 AM »
Does anyone know if an M38 is the same frame dimension wise as a CJ3a frame.  Looking to make a welding jig and need guidance.

Thanks

Also please advise on an M38A.

AfBrat,

The M38 frame is dimensionally identical to a CJ3A frame.

The M38A1 is not a match.  It can substitute for a CJ5 frame.
