wheel-base version of the CJ-7, introduced in 1981 and manufactured
through 1986. It featured a 103 in (2,616 mm) wheelbase and a
removable half-cab, creating a small pick-up style box instead of
utilizing a separate pickup bed. CJ-8s used the traditional
transfer case with manual front-locking hubs to engage the
four-wheel drive. Most had either a four or five speed manual
transmission, but a three speed automatic transmission was an
option. The term "Scrambler" comes from an appearance package that
many CJ-8's were equipped with, which included tape graphics and
special wheels. Former President Ronald Reagan owned a CJ-8 and
used it on his California Ranch. A full length steel hardtop CJ-8
was made for the Alaskan Postal Service, using right hand drive and
automatic transmissions. Instead of the rear tailgate, the steel
hardtop utilized a hinged barn door opening to the back. There were
only 230 produced and sold in the U.S. It was also widely sold in
Venezuela and Australia as the CJ8 Overlander, with small
differences including full length rear windows on the
Overlander.Steel hardtops used on these postal Scramblers and
Overlanders were known as "World Cab" tops. Power Brakes, Tire
