How the did I miss this thread???

The Jeep you sold was a CJ7. You can always tell a 7 from a 5 because a 7 will have square door bottoms where the doors on a 5 follow the rear wheel arch.

Anyway, this new one looks really sweet. It's ugly and it's built. You really don't need much else.

I used to have a CJ-7, it was an 84 with a Camaro Z28 350 in it that i built up and had about 360 hp. Mated to a TH350 with a shift kit etc. D300 t-case with an AMC 20 rear and Dana 30 front. Dual exhaust with super turbo mufflers and walked all over mustang GTs, as well as chirping the tires all the way into 3rd gear whenver i wanted it to. If anyone wants pics i got em!

its funny you say drag truck. the guy said he got it from someone that raced drag cars. he said the back end of the trailer is wider to fit the wide tires on a drag car.
he said is was custom made and built good. he said he thinks its a 12k trailer.

I think he posted dimensions and pictures. hold on I'll see if I can dig them up

any idea how wide the front decks are for the tires? My drag truck currently has 275/60R15 sized tires on it now, which i have no clue what that converts to, i just dont want tire edges sitting or rubbing on those side rails of the decks

I just emailed the guy to see if he had an idea. he said the iroks are hanging over the edge by 1 inch and they are 13.5" wide so I'm sure the 275 will have some room.

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

he said he is pretty sure that they are at least 12" wide
