jared p ya it's in the center console so no one steals it

THANK YOU, Sir! Glad to see there is 1 other person who has used the AMC 20 w/decent mods, successfully. People go $$ nuts on rears. Even after they stuff a small block Chevy, and never really tune it for max available power, for $400-600 you've got a stock rear w/good aftermarket support.

Most guys add junk cheby full size axles. Too much money to adapt it to a Jeep for NO strength increase over the AMC 20 (talking about the 10 and 12 bolt here). Have you seen how freakin' close a 14 bolt is from the ground? Even on a lifted rig? When done correctly, with USA made forged and induction hardened ONE PIECE AXLES, the AMC 20 is fine for 39.5 x 18 wide Boggers like I had. Most guys think they need 1 ton running gear in a Jeep, wrong. All you are doing is adding more weight and complexity to your rig. Don't know how many 10, 12 and 14 bolt "conversions" I've drove around that were broke on the trail. A trussed and welded AMC 20 with 1 piece axles is pretty freakin' stout. Then you add the real deal Detroit Locker with say 4.56 or so gears like I have and enjoy. This is another key. Get a real locker and never look back. No ARB junk with all the unnecessary parts like compressors and mufti-failure areas like air lines and fittings. You get the point. Here we go again with complexity - ARB lockers.

jim davidson COULD. NOT. AGREE. MORE! I hate ARB & cable lockers. More sh!te to go bad in the worst places. That stuff will give you FALSE confidence/security.. & get you hurt. Fast! If you don't mind, I'd like to save your above note to a file to show others that the 20, when set up on the cheap (compared to 1 tons), is indeed a viable rear. 39.5x18s, "come on Son", that's endorsement enough for me! And the Detroit locker has been around for 50+ years, so I'd say it has proven itself, no? If you find yourself in N.E Pa, give me a shout & we'll tear "stuff" UP!

Your thinking of the m38a1s, the cj5 was copied from the m38a1 and I order to incorporate a tail gate the spare tire mount was moved to the right side.

Aww sounds like you two have so much fun ❤️

It looks like Mickey Thompson's

+MrNelsonb2 It would be exempt from emmissions i would think. in lexington georgia we dont have emmissions at all lol

+MrNelsonb2 What, do you live in California? It's exempt from emissions.

here in pa we have emissions in counties around large cities like pittsburgh some counties are exempt

l live in CA, and it sucks. l want to buy a CJ7 and put a V8, but l did that once to a 83 CJ7 and didn't past the stupid smog even tho it ran awesome. l had a 75, and 79 CJ5, but l prefer the CJ7.
