Aluminum Tubs for YJ's???

YJDave · 08-15-2009, 05:11 PM

Hello everyone,

Does anyone know if an Aluminum Tub for a YJ (89) can be had, and if so who makes it?

I checked Aqualu's website and all they seem to have is CJ parts.

TIA,
Dave

I did not see one Aluminum Tub for a YJ anywhere on either of those sites. Would you happen to have a direct link?

IIRC aftermarket cj7 and yj tubs are interchangeable

Are you expecting to have it shipped to you in Iraq?

The CJ7 Tub is not all that different than a yj tub...

I assume your after a yj tub.

Actually I can't think of anything crucial that is different.

Thank you, I learned something new today.

I believe the body bolt locations are different between the two models. There are several write-ups on swapping a YJ tub to a CJ frame. I would guess those would be a good resource in determining the differences.

aren't the fuel filler holes on opposite sides? i mean, i know of people that have swapped them, and i don't remember them having any major issues, but just pointing it out. fuel filler is a very small issue when you are talking about everything else bolting up.
