I just finished today to dismantle the 1966 CJ-6 Jeeps parts.

I kept what I wanted and give away the rest.

Here is some pictures while dismantle it;

I find out how hard it is to remove old rusty, crusty stuff. The rear wheels stud broke, all of them!

Fender gone!

Original Hurricane F134 sticker! I will keep it for a while.

Someone welded the battery tray on the frame…Arggh!

Tub off the frame. Two people needed.

It’s a keeper.

So, I gave away the frame, motor, transmision, transfert case and both differentials.

It took the day to dismantle it. No too bad for a first one.

I started to dismantle the jeep. I think is a good idea to take pictures as much as I can. It should help when I put everything back in place. ( Memory is a faculty that forgets )

Here is a picture of what appears to be an original windshield water tank. Yep! It’s that small plastic bag.  Go figure out how to fill it…

I have to say: “RIP 31962!”

Probably made in the end of September 1966. Check the serial information on the cj3b.info website.

I’m not sure if this is an original tag (938202) or not of the wiring harness. Also note that it has two horns.

Horn relay;

This is my second blue CJ6 I found. This one and the DJ6 that I planned to restore. It’s literally the same blue. I did some research and I think those jeep was owned by the Quebec government. Especially this one, because it has two large side mirror , two horns, a CB antenna , 4 flashing yellow distress installed on the front fender and on each corner of the hardtop. I will look for a number that could identify it.

Thank you for watching!

This past weekend (May 17-18-19) we went to my brother’s home to get my parts jeep.

Here is a closer look of Matter’s cousin!

We can’t see it clearly but the front wheel was half buried into mud so the wheels doesn’t turn freely.

Also, we noticed that the locking hub had an extra external sleeve that prevent us to remove the wheel without removing the locking hub first.

My brother in action!

I strongly suggest to get a hub puller to remove those brake drum. It’s soooooo more easy!

The wheels is now turning free. We trow away the brake shoe.

Here is my new jack Hi-Lift Extreme in action! (140$CAN)

We used a Bubba rope to pull it on the trailer.

We were ready to leave.

And finally we made it to home!

Now the real fun begin. It will be time to dismantle it!

**********UPDATED May 8th, 2014 (Added more photos)*************

Look what I just found!

It’s a 1967 CJ-5 with VIN# start with 8310… this mean that it has a 4 192 Perkins Diesel engine.

It is not very far away from me. The seller is asking 500$ for the jeep. It is just not a good timing since I’m going to get my CJ-6 parts jeep in two weeks. I don’t have a place to put it.

It’s very tempting. I think it would fit in my DJ-6. I should get a little more power and torque.

I will cross my finger and wait. Hope it will still be available in a month.

I got more photos;

No doubt that’s a perkins diesel engine;

The steering column doesn’t look original;

Based on the shifting pattern, look like a three speed transmission.

I wonder what would be the axle ratio on it.
