Are the frames on a 1979 jeep CJ5 and 1976 same?

No, the frames on the 1979 Jeep CJ5 and 1976 CJ5 are not the same. The 1976 model has a shorter frame than the 1979 model. The distance from the front axle to the rear axle on the 1976 CJ5 is 83 inches, while on the 1979 CJ5, it is 86 inches. This difference is due to the fact that the 1979 CJ5 has a longer wheelbase than the 1976 CJ5 (101 inches versus 97 inches).
