Car Forum / Jeep / July 2007J.C. Whitney fiberglass body tubs - any opinions?
Does anyone have any experience with the J.C. Whitney fiberglass body tubs (see link below). The description sounds good and the price is several hundred dollars less than other sources. They are also offering free shipping for limited time. http://tinyurl.com/yugekl Thanks Larry Who is "Omix Ada"?

They have only sold one it would seem and that one was a POS that didn't fit nothing according to the review. The tub was too narrow to fit a hood even and the tunnel was wrong. It also isn't very strongly build in my opinion. They only use 1/2" plywood floor cores and they use plywood for the rear bracing. They don't mention 'any' reinforcing in the firewall area. Mine has diamond plating sandwiched in there and 1" cores for the floor. All the Jeep parts fit onto it including hard doors and top. I bought mine from a gent in Kingston Ontario Canada.

JC Whitney is not a particularly great supplier of anything in my experience. Their biggest problem is that they sell too much different stuff to be very knowledgeable about any one line. |
