Product Details

Product Description: Is it time to rebuild the axles or install a locking differential on your vintage Jeep vehicle? Does your CJ model need a frame-off restoration? Between these covers you will find the unit repair and overhaul steps for completely rebuilding a 1946-1971 Jeep CJ! If engine, transmission, transfer case, axle, steering, electrical or metal restoration seem difficult or beyond your skills, here is the fix! Jeep vehicle expert, automotive instructor and author of the Jeep® Owner’s Bible™, Moses Ludel demystifies the most complex service procedures.

Talking with hundreds of enthusiasts at his Camp Jeep® workshops, Moses discovered that hobbyists and professional Jeep vehicle mechanics alike want heavily illustrated, step-by-step ‘how-to’ manuals. For the Jeep vehicle owner who finds the typical workshop manual impossible to decipher, Moses Ludel breaks ground with this book. No longer will you struggle with pages of text steps and an occasional photograph. The author and photographer/illustrator of more than 2,500 magazine tech articles and five popular Owner’s Bible™ books, Moses undertook the Jeep® CJ Rebuilder’s Manual™ to meet the needs of Jeep vehicle owners and restorers. With this ambitious effort, Moses launches a series of ‘how-to’ rebuild manuals with a photograph marking each technical step.

At the onset, Moses stripped a vintage CJ model to the bare frame, photographing every step in the process. He then disassembled and rebuilt each subassembly of the vehicle---again under the detailed scrutiny of his camera. All procedures are thoroughly explained, and even the most complex mechanical concepts can be readily understood.

For an authentic restoration to original equipment standards or sensible upgrades that will enhance the performance of your vintage Jeep CJ, this is the book. Moses Ludel brings his mastery of Jeep technology into your shop!

Great if you are rebuilding an Old Jeep: Avg. Customer Rating: 3 Stars; This book shows a total restoration. It may provide on a small amount of help for the shadetree mechanic.

Nick
My first Jeep is a 53 Willys Overland CJ-3B and the jeep thing started there.: Avg. Customer Rating: 5 Stars; I fine book and is highly recommended reading for ol jeepers. Sure helped me understand more on my 53 CJ-3B and really helped get up to speed on the 225 v6. I think the author should do more books on other jeeps as well. I have enjoyed his 2 cj books on his personal storys of his cj's but I would enjoy seeing other titles on other car rebuilding. His authorship on rebuilding helping me rebuild and restore my stock 53 CJ-3B, a current back yard find for $100 bucks, a 75 CJ-5 with a 66 v6, t98/od, and build a personal 83 CJ-7 Chevy powered jeep from parts. It think he should buy a SJ(wagoneer)and cover that subject as well. I have a 89 version of a Grand Wagoneer I would like to keep on the highway as well.
Not a good source of info - look elsewhere.: RAvg. Customer Rating: 1 Star; This book covers modified vehicles. There is little info on stock CJs. Although it covers a V6 model, it is NOT a factory V6, which was a big disappointment for me. There is much info on how to modify and update old CJs, which isn't a bad thing. Just make sure you know exactly what you want before buying this book, and your old CJ for that matter!
