THE COIL PIC WAS MADE FOR A '79-'86 CJ-5/7
THEY HAVE RESISTANCE WIRES, NOT A BALLAST RESISTOR
HOWEVER- WIRE OR BALLAST, IT IS STILL "EXTERNAL RESISTANCE" PRIOR TO REACHING THE COIL
I HAD TO USE A BALLAST RESISTOR ON MY '77 CJ-5 BECAUSE I UPGRADED THE PRESTOLITE (CRAPPY IGN SYSTEM) TO A "MOTORCRAFT" IGN, JUST LIKE '79-'86
'76-'78 USED A COIL WITH INTERNAL RESISTANCE
INSTEAD OF USING HALF/ HALF OF EACH SYSTEM, I OPTED TO DO IT ALL LIKE '79 ('CEPT FOR THE ADDITION OF THE BALLAST RESISTOR - A MUST HAVE FOR MY MODIFICATION) THIS KEEPS ME USING/ SAYING IT'S A '79 FOR MY INFO AT A PARTS STORE, THIS CUTS DOWN ON CONFUSION WHEN I GET IGN STUFF!
