CJ-8 Scramblers sold with half hardtops came equipped with a removable metal bulkhead divider that formed the front of the bed. These stock bulkheads were very prone to rusting on the thin lower mounting flange. In addition, because they were fairly thin pieces of stamped sheet metal, they were prone to denting when cargo in the bed slid forward. This rare Scrambler-specific part was previously not available in steel. Now available in a 19 ga stamped steel with an ecoat.

Description
CJ-8 Scramblers sold with half hardtops came equipped with a removable metal bulkhead divider that formed the front of the bed. These stock bulkheads were very prone to rusting on the thin lower mounting flange. In addition, because they were fairly thin pieces of stamped sheet metal, they were prone to denting when cargo in the bed slid forward. Until recently, this rare Scrambler-specific part is no longer available from Jeep and nearly impossible to locate on the used market in any condition, much less new. Now available in 19 ga thickness metal.
This OEM replacement bulkhead fits perfectly with all floor and sidewall mounting holes lining up correctly. This bulkhead can also be used on CJ7s and YJs when using a OEM CJ-8 half hardtop.
GR8TOPS recommends using foam and/or silicone sealant if you wish to semi-permanently mount the bulkhead into place for weather resistance. If you wish to permanently mount the bulkhead into place, we recommend using a urethane-based body seam sealer to seal the bulkhead into place before spraying bedliner or repainting your CJ-8.
This OEM bulkhead will probably NOT fit most fiberglass bodies or the Aqualu aluminum bodies as the inside of the both replacement bodies are a bit different than factory bodies. Aqualu does sell a specific bulkhead that will work with their aluminum CJ7 and CJ8 bodies.
The bulkhead comes with a black ecoating material on it and will need to be prepped for automotive paint just like any other new steel part.
