I am reviving my new to me 64 CJ5 that has been asleep since 1976. I am currently changing all the fluids and everything rubber.
I have rebuilt engines before, but not of this make or vintage. I am not planning to do all that much rebuilding since the jeep has less that 9,000 original miles on it just replacing seals & gaskets.
What is the trick with the round rubber strips on either side of the rear main bearing cap? The manuals I have been reading indicate you do not trim them, but the amount that they protrude is critical.
Also are there any other tricks unique to the F-head that I should look out for?
