Got my CJ7 back together tonight finally. For those of you that have been involved in my tales of woe, it finally all came together. No more blow-by or oil leaks and I would say I picked up quite a few horses too. The truck runs great! Plus I dressed it up a little with an aluminum valve cover and a 9" chrome air cleaner for the 2100 carb. I also got rid of some more smog stuff, so now to troubleshoot anything in the truck is rather simple.

My next project is either a track bar for the front or possibly the brakes (or a louder horn LOL). I know I have at least one rotor that is bad. It has some pretty nasty grooves in it. Whoever did the last brake job just slapped a set of pads on and away they went.

Glad you got it going, I suggest fixing the brakes next. What good is a track bar if you can't stop? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

Actually it stops ok. With all the grooves in the rotor, it is just a matter of time before the pads are wore out. I'm OK for the foreseeable future as far as brakes are concerned. The track bar doesn't look too big of a deal if I make it myself. There is a guy on ebay selling them for $179, but they don't look too difficult to make.
