I'm confused... the only potential CJ5 component listed is the F-134 engine. The rest of it (except the date) sounds like a M-715 "Five Quarter" Vietnam era pickup. It's definitely not a shortened CJ5!

Gordon, I believe you are correct. I saw 1.25 and immediately thought 1/4 ton instead of 1 1/4 ton. I've updated the post. Thanks for keeping an eye on me. I surely need it :-) - Dave

I do wonder why anyone would put a F-134 in a 5200# vehicle with really tall tires. The stock engine was something like 230ci and 130hp.
