| ![]() If your Jeep is from 1981 batch then it must have an electric motor. |

But I guess that the price of raw rubber also has gone though the roof and is ruling at almost near the all time high prices. Atleast the tyres have increased only 25%. We guys can surely live with that ![]() Quote:

From what I've learnt there are two on the CJ3B Gogi. One fits onto those four holes on the gearbox cross member. The second is a part of the oil sump pan |

| ![]() [Gogi ji, other day I along with my family had gone to Siddhu's Dhaba at Lonavala on old Mumbai Pune road it has best of the non veg and veg delicacies. In the compound I found a CJ parked almost similar colour shade as yours recently restored but found following originals absent in it. 1. Original petrol engine replaced by second hand Toyota diesel engine.Engine is in immaculate condition. 2. Four Wheel Drive gear box replaced by regular 2 wheel drive. 3. Rear seats cannot be fixed at all due to space problems so it becomes two seater jeep. 4. Driving seat cannot be adjusted and it is very uncomfortable to drive with driver sitting uncomfotably,and you actually sitting on the steering wheel. 5. Black out lights not working.No seperate switch for them as you have in your CJ. 6. Wider tyres instead of regular sized tyres. All above found to be attended to bring back the CJ to its original pride. I clicked some photos of the jeep , sorry for the poor quality they are from my cell phone. Thats me in the driving seat with my son sitting next to me. Last edited by IQBAL VEERJI : 18th April 2010 at 13:46. |

![]() I have seen most owners remove the Black out light circuit from their Jeeps as actually, it serves no purpose but then that was the character of the Jeep. I did go through the process of sourcing these lights and getting them wired to run. They all work, including the one which lights up the differential at night. Need to get the hood sorted now before rains.l A few pics, taken by various Team-bhpian friends from the recent OTR (the Cj's first as a participant and my first as driver) at Alibaug where it performed beautifully in all terrains. Encouraged and explained by Piki Paaji, Behrambhai, Allan, Tejas and 0thers.

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() great restoration Gogi Nothing to beat a SWB petrol. what kind of hood are you thinking of going in for! The one that has just the top and the rear or the complete one with the side door etc. I too want to change the hood on my 3B but cant seem to decide which one to go for!!! |

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() Gogi, just a thought: You are considering installing the Classic type roll bar. What if you made a custom bolt on type roll cage which you can install during OTRs and remove it after? This will not change the character of your jeep. You should make the roll bar padding of the same rexin that you have used for the seats. And it's a great idea of using the laminated printout as a number plate. No chance of breaking during OTRs and you can have a new one made at the drop of a hat! |
