    These are what I am thinking....its hard to find a 16x7 wheel with 5x5.5 bolt pattern and a 4.25 center bore for the large front hubs on old cjs.

    That is a tough size to source, the chrome mods would be a good choice.

    I know sizes differ - it looks like the same wheel style as what I have.

    IH could be a source for the bolt pattern and large hub opening.

    While James is dealing with ignition / distributor issues on the old wagon, I have also been dealing with distributor issues on my wagon. My car was down for the count Wednesday night - after being turned off just completing a 2000 mile trip back and forth from Illinois.

    An interesting story and some ball bearing carnage:

    Got news that my parent's pup passed away this morning. He was diagnosed with cancer earlier this year and made it longer than excepted, but they are really struggling with this at the moment. Hell, I got tears trying to bubble up just thinking of the pain they are going through. Wish I could take away all the hurt. Cancer sucks.

    Hug your pets and other loved one a little extra, they deserve it.

    Who has their schedule changed due to the snow?

    Very few cars on the road up here. Foot+ of snow outside. I have plans to drive to Loveland for a noon appointment. The roads are probably fine but it'll be the first and last 100 feet that will be the issue (or I'll decide to take the jeep).

    I was all ready to leave for work (at I-70 and Floyd Hill) when my boss texted and said to stay home. Good thing too because of the rock fall that looks like it happened pretty close to there. That intersection is a nightmare on bad-weather days.

    We had the driveway cleared and our neighborhood street had been plowed at the time, but soon we'll have to do it again.

    The roads were not fine last night. I had to drive 287/Wadsworth from Longmont to 52 ave in Arvada at 9 pm last night. Simply put it sucked. Only good thing was no traffic.

    There was a little snow in Moab this morning, as well. I think we got off easy compared to the front range.

    `had to be pulled out... That last 100 feet bit me. The city and county roads were plowed but snowpacked.

    Before I left the house I loaded the back of the car with recovery gear - including the new kinetic rope and soft shackle. Nearing the client site, the neighborhood street was not plowed and with 14" inches of snow my 4.5" clearance car couldn't deal with it. The client was out with their skid-steer clearing their driveway so it was a trivial tug-n-pull get get me moving again. Good times!
