    I just completed this upgrade for my 1971 CJ5.
    Found your video very helpful- thank you.
    One suggestion is that after you mill down the back of the knuckle casting for the studs, you should chamfer the holes slightly. The bolts are never threaded 100% to the head and chamfering allows the back of the head to sit completely flat on the newly milled surface.

      Glad to hear it! Great point you’re right a chamfer makes sense. Thank you!

    Hey Jacob! I'm just starting to do the stud upgrades on my CJ and rewatched the video and went to links for the supplies you suggested. What a great source for hardware and tools! I went there to order your suggested parts and left there with my wallet a couple hundred bucks lighter! LoL!! Thanks for sharing the cool things you find when researching for your Jeep. I have used your suggestions several times and never been disappointed. Much appreciated.

    About to perform this weekend once the 5/16 pilot arrives Sat, the counterbore and bolts arrive today. I almost got away with an 11" brake conversion with no issue, two of the threads on the pass side are boogered, tried a tap, a bit better but still slipping when bottoming. May as well address this now, glad you made this video, well done Jacob.

    after going airborne in my old 62 pickup and losing my two front wheels, i had considered longer bolts thru the backing plate and into the knuckle and nuts inside, never got around to it tho , that was a long time ago, your vid reminded me of that unexpected excursion off the roadway. keep em coming, and ps i like the background music

    just found your channel and am very impressed with your info. I have a 47 cj2a, one owner and a 27K mile 75 cj5 barn find and will probably do the disk brake thing on the 47 with the kit you used. 47 jeep brakes suck! Thanks again and good job!

      the cj5 had a 304 but now a 30 over 401 and top loader 4 speed. The original owner installed nitro sprayers as he drag raced this thing in Spokane (weird) Hadn't been run since 98 but it does now! Too much power for a short WB Jeep.

    • @SevenBarSalvage

      @@SevenBarSalvage They are around as jeep pickups and wagoners used them. Lots of power and lots of aftermarket stuff and the nice thing, same exterior size as the 304 and a direct bolt in. I got rid of the nitro and went with an edelbrock carb and manifold. Mine needs all new exhaust. Cool jeep, renegade, levi edition with acme top, all doors and rear seat, and exra set of used BFG tires all for $800.00 but I had to haul it out.

    I’m having a hard time getting my hub off on my ‘48-it’s permanently locked in for some reason…the previous owner never unlocked them.
    Would this stop me from getting it to come off, or does it not make a difference? I don’t want to get too rough with it
