I'm pretty sure the large rear window was option from very beginning.

[Billygoat]

I am going '71 - J2000 with and AMC Engine, not sure if you could get the AMC V8 in 70.

[red mistress]

I didn't know they angled the battery .... this early in production.

[jeepmandan]

I'll go 72 J2000 360/TH400/D20 D44s with 4.09 gears

[Catfish33]

Yeah my 65' J3000 has the large rear window.

[grand_wag_85]

I see a brow, round tail lights, razor grille and 6 lug axles so 1972?

[Jeepstress]

Just for fun.



I have a busted wrap-around tail light they can have if they win. They do need to pay shipping tho. :angel:

[Fiodh. Argus]

73 J-2000?

[red mistress]

Spare tire carrier .... Mounted diagonally.


My 67 is mounted front to rear.

[fireman91186]

Is it me or does the front end look to be a spring over? :confused::confused:

[mdill]

Well AMC engine, post 71, post mount springs pre 74,
best guess 72->73 somewhere in there.

[red mistress]

Humm...what was first year that Tripod mirrors were on J2000's ?

[mattmopar440]

Looks just like my old 74

73-74 :thumbsup:

[jeepmandan]

73-74 :thumbsup:

J2000 went away in 73, J10/20 started in 74.

[Lindel]

72, the 73 had the long skinny tail lights.

[Billygoat]

I am sticking wiht 71, my J4000 had
post springs - check
AMC V8 - check (edit - never seen a V9 lol)
razor grill - check (best as I can tell)
spring over front and rear - check
angle battery - soft check (IIRC)
round tail lights - check
gas filler with no recess - check
brow - CHECK!
large rear window - check
D20 t-case - check
4 wheel drum - check
dash for either hand drive - check

in question - tire carrier, mom took out a tree stump when I was 4 and it was never seen again, I remeber I would sit under there when my parents were moving cattle and I was suppose to go somplace safe - not sure why I didn't get in the cab...:confused:
mirrors - I remeber the stock mirrors it had were like something off a car, dad put farm store tripods on it.

[KaiserMan]

It's a 72. Last year for the original dash, and first for the diagonal tire carrier.

Just goes to show, some of us have no real life :p

[1cdccop]

1972:drivin:

[red mistress]

This cutaway poster not dated either.

I concur that 72 was first year of diagonal tire carrier.

I looked thru some of my brochures and data books but don't have any that show tripod mirrors from early 70's.

So this is earliest factory photo of tripod mirrors that I have seen.

[Dumpy]

I wanna say '72, but I have one and I have 5 lug axles. Also, the tailgate on a '72 should still have hook and chain straps, so there should be a tab on the inside of the tailgate, but that's not shown. Front and rear spring over is definately 73 or earlier, right? So I'm gonna have to go with a 72 1/2

[Austin 4x4]

72. you put enough of what all of us know and we can get it.

[Dumpy]

Jake & Jackie! Where you at on this one?:confused:
