Summary
This 1978 Jeep CJ-5 has been extensively modified with a 350ci V8, a three-speed automatic transmission, and a 3.5″ Skyjacker lift kit, complemented by an external roll cage and a locking front differential. It features an Edelbrock intake, Trick Flow cylinder heads, and a modified Dana 20 transfer case with twin-stick shifters and front-wheel-drive-only functionality, though the odometer is inaccurate and some cosmetic blemishes are noted.
