Talking with hundreds of enthusiasts at his Camp Jeep® workshops, Moses discovered that hobbyists and professional Jeep vehicle mechanics alike want heavily illustrated, step-by-step "how-to" manuals. For the Jeep vehicle owner who finds the typical workshop manual impossible to decipher, Moses Ludel breaks ground with this book. No longer will you struggle with pages of text steps and an occasional photograph. The author and photographer/illustrator of more than 2,500 magazine tech articles and five popular
Owner's Bible? books, Moses undertook the
Jeep® CJ Rebuilder's Manual? to meet the needs of Jeep vehicle owners and restorers. With this ambitious effort, Moses launches a series of "how-to" rebuild manuals with a photograph marking each technical step.

Steerage linkage:
When servicing the steering system, steering linkage requires attention. The linkage consists of a draglink, bellcrank, tie-rods and the attaching tie-rod joint ends. Wear occurs at any of the pivotal points in the joints.

At the onset, Moses stripped a vintage CJ model to the bare frame, photographing every step in the process. He then disassembled and rebuilt each subassembly of the vehicle---again under the detailed scrutiny of his camera. Procedures are thoroughly explained, and even the most complex mechanical concepts can be readily understood.
For an authentic restoration to original equipment standards or sensible upgrades that will enhance the performance of your vintage Jeep CJ, this is the book. Moses Ludel brings his mastery of Jeep technology into your shop!
