Hello group. new member here and new Jeep owners. we recently purchased a 77 CJ5 with V8 3sp. body was redone and previous owner claimed maintenance was kept up. first drive down the street revealed issues. pulled off front drivers wheel and found no bearings, only rust and silt.

unfortunately, i wont have time to do the work myself so i am asking if there are any suggestions of where i could take this to get fixed.

i suspect the front diff is also contaminated with water and silt as at least one axle seal is leaking

Could try contacting Dave at Broken Axle, [email protected], he’s pretty close to getting his new shop up and running. Might be able to help sort you out.
If not, the usual 4x4 shops should be able to handle this.
