A serious problem common to CJ’s is frame rust at the leaf spring shackle mount area.
There is a rubber body mount located above the rear frame section that retains moisture and allows it to slowly seep into the frame rail. Sand and mud also get trapped inside the hollow frame rails, resulting in total rust-through. These rusted out areas create an extremely unsafe condition and often lead to state safety inspection failures. You will need to buy new shackle mount bushings for best results. This Safe-T-CapTM saves time and money with this smart fix for rotted frames. Installation is very similar to our ART-42.
This is the part for the Right (passenger's) side
