Nice work. I'm Just finishing up a restore on an '86 CJ7 (paint should be done soon). Looks like you started with a clean one. What are the drivetrain specs?
I have a Warn 8274 that I'm contemplating putting on the Jeep so it's good to see how it looks on yours.

Hey Willowrun,
It has the stock 258 with a Dana 30 up front and the AMC 20 in the rear. It has the SR4 tranny that everyone but me hates, and the Dana 300 t-case. The only changes I made were to add the Weber carb kit and the split header to run duals on it. I also added a HEI distributor to get better spark. It does really well on and off road and believe me, we hammer on it.
Good luck with yours and post up some pics.

Nice jeep. I'm also a fan of CJ7's!
