You want CJ7 front springs to put in the rear of your Sammy. Ken thought it was Cj5s? Jim

I use CJ6 springs on mine. I know that some later model CJ5s are 2" wide and I think some CJ 7s are right too. Just make sure the springs are 2" wide and not 2.5" wide and you are good to go

So what you guys are saying is that you require missling links with the CJ springs in order to clear the pumpkin far enough from the fuel tank?
Thanks steve
