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.
For what it’s worth, my 66 (built 12/65 according to your 3B page link) has the exact same battery tray in the same spot. Riveted and welded.
Because the plate on the right was not continuous, I though it was not original. The spot weld on the middle plate was very rough and not clean.
The battery tray on my DJ-6 is near the firewall.
I might then put it back where it should.
Thank Mitch
