    Hello all,

    I have had my CJ5 for about 2 years. When I got it, it was in really bad shape. Over the last 2 years I have slowly replaced and repaired items to get it running to the point that I can drive it around daily, weather permitting. I am here just looking for advice, things I should do and things I should avoid from people who have been through it. I look forward to hearing from you guys.
