Hello, I'm Jay in the Pacific Northwest. I just acquired a 1955 Willys Jeep CJ-5 in mostly great condition and want to learn as much as I can as I drive and maintain it. I am continuing on my uncle's labor of love, and am looking forward to having a community to engage with.

On my front driver side tire I have a wheel spacer that is stuck onto the stock brake drum. I have tried many things to get it off but its not moving. Was wonder if there is anything i'm missing to get it off. Also ways to get the drum to not move when i put pressure on it.

Hey y'all! I come from not your usual stock that you don't find these days. My late granddad was an avid Jeeper. He raced in lots of dessert events like the Mint 400 & Baja 500 in his '48 CJ3B. I'm his last granddaughter of 4, then 2. I've finally picked up a Willys of my own. As far as I can...

Hey all. I've owned a '63 CJ-5 for a few years now, and use it primarily to plow my private mountain road. I know a little about maintenance and mechanics, but not enough. I hope to learn all about preventative maintenance here, as appose to having to fix major issues. She's running good, but...

I've gone a couple steps forward and a few back. Shocks are on and they help some but the springs still sag too much for me. New carb is on and that is a big improvement and maybe cured a tiny bit of the performance problems. The rest are in the valves not working properly on #1 and in the...
