CJ2? I had one of those once with a steel cab and doors. Was awfully loud like a Hiniker cab rattling through a field. Kind of need hearing protection when operating either. Mine was pretty top heavy but real durable. If it ever got too much over the tipping edge and tipped, it uprighted easy enough with some help from a couple of other guys. Not much of a street vehicle though. At about 50 MPH it screamed like it was going to launch the transmission and some pistons. Because they didn't have shoulder harnesses or even seat belts back then, at about 50 MPH if I just completely let up off the gas my forehead used to tap the windshield because the gearing was like slamming on the brakes of most vehicles. The new jeeps? YJs I think they're called. Pretty much street vehicles. Can you find your old 2 or one like it? Slip a 4.0 into it, and now you're talking. Of course a 4.0 requires lot of computer aided stuff, so find an old AMC 258 or even a 232 without all of the computer aided stuff that the 4.0 is based off of. Of course, I suppose you could find the 4.0 computer and wiring to go along with a 4.0 to slip into the old CJ2. But, if you're going to slip a computer and wiring into a CJ2 and want a 6 cylinder, I'd go Dodge Magnum 3.9 V6. They're lighter, smoother running, shorter to get better front to rear weight ratio, get better fuel economy, about the same HP, a little less torque though.

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
