Well, this thing is proving to be more and more of a mutt, which is cool.� I was going to call it a CJ2.82634A because it's going to have a blend of 2A and 3A parts (mostly 3A, which is why I was weighting its numerical designation closer to 3), but I'm not sure what calculation to use now that it may have some CJ3B or 5 parts in it, as well.� ::)

I'll jack up the back and rotate the tires to see if it's closer to 2:79 revolutions per or 3.34 per.� That at least will help me diagnose if it's a T90A or C.� (I'm betting it's a T90A.)

Just about done!� From that original pile of parts under my kids' swing set I've got a running rig that is an absolute joy to tool around in.� (Now I've just got to fix the leaks and get the brakes to work better.)







Thanks for all the help, guys!

I knew it was going to be ridiculously pic heavy (and not updated as frequently as I would have liked), so I did it in a blog site.
