Re: [WT] CJ2a Chassis ... is it heat treated ?

I might do some reinforcing in the area. Just remember these frames
are
ladders and made to flex some.

Done exactly that , made a 10" long plate to fit inside the chassis
rail then plug welded it , the chassis twisted in the 1st lace as

1. I have jumped FrankenJeep on occassions

2. There was an accumlation of mud/crud inside that part of the
chassis rail and it had corroded away 50% of the chassis wall in that
area causing it to weaken. I had to cut the plate out , what was
inside there wouldn't come out with a pressure blaster it had baked
into a solid mass

I had the same thought about the chassis rails getting their strength
during the rolling process

Thanks all
