FLAT-TOWING CJ-5Q I am buying a ’74 Jeep CJ-5 from a buddy of mine. It’s in pretty good shape, but I’m going to be flat-towing it about 500 miles to my home. What gear should I put it in to flat-tow it safely? Transmission in neutral? Transfer case? Is there anything else I should be concerned about?C. ROY VIA EMAIL

Bill “Maverick” Golden's wheel standing Dodge A100 borrows off-road tricks on the track
What makes Bill “Maverick” Golden’s Dodge A100 fascinating is not the list of exciting parts on the build sheet but, instead, what’s been removed. Back in the May 1965 issue of Four Wheeler, we got up close with the rig that was, at the time, called the fastest truck in the world.

SKY HIGH: Charlie Melchner's 1977 Silverado on 46s
Charlie Melchner wanted to build a real truck. By his definition, that meant relying on a bit more than a simple set of lift blocks to keep him riding high on his colossal tires. We visited Charlie in the October 1987 issue of Four Wheeler where he gave us a tour of his fully customized ’77 Chevy Silverado.
