Title: Tub swap
Post by: chuckroast on October 24, 2005, 08:38:56 PM

Does anybody have experience with putting  a YJ tub on a CJ. Ken at Jeep Stuff says some of the mounting points do not line up and that the gas tank filler is on the wrong side. Any advice would be great.

Thanks for your help. did you use any other YJ parts or was your tub completely stripped? I am hoping to find a tub with the hinges, wiring, pedals and stuff so i don't have to change everything. How much time did it atke you to do?
