“Posting my 1972 Jeep CJ-6 project. New frame (New, never used, OEM frame from the factory) currently sitting on brand new Old Man Emu suspension. Frame has been rust proofed and POR 15 coated. Dana 44 axle in rear with new pinion seals and brake lines. Tub in rough shape, but very salvageable. Full Meyers hardtop in very good condition. Meyers Half cab in fair good condition. Dana 20 transfer case in good working order, T-15 3 speed transmission in good working order. Also includes 2 sets of wheels/tires: original steel rims with old school steel belted offroad tires and a set of American racing wagon wheels with BGF all terrains.

Also included at asking price are the power train that I planned to put in this jeep: 1998 4.0 liter inline six motor with 70k miles on it, AX-15 5 Speed transmission with 70k miles on it, new clutch, Dana 300 transfer case already bolted to AX15.

You will need a trailer. Tub is off of the frame, both transmissions and both transfer cases are off of the frame, the motor is currently on the frame (but could easily be taken off). Frame is a roller at present: suspension and axles are in place. I have a trailer and can transport within New England for extra fee.

Photos below show current state as well as the last time the Jeep was together. everything has been stored in doors on stands since being taken apart.

reason i’m selling: family and I are moving and don’t know where we will end up just yet.

The 1954 Power Tower Patent

• CATEGORIES: Documents, Features • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This April 12, 1954, Power Tower patent filing by Wallace Johnson and Robert Fisher was said to be designed for other vehicles besides the jeep, but given it’s length, it’s hard to imagine it would work on anything that wasn’t flat like the top of the jeep.

Here’s a description:  The present invention relates to a power tower for use by workmen employed as painters, electrical fixture repairrnen, aircraft maintenance men, window washers, and a multitude of similar occupations wherein it is necessary toperform a task at some distance above the ground and thus ordinarily require the use of ladders or scaffolding of some type. More particularly, the invention relates to a workmans platform supported by a collapsible tower structure which in turn is mounted on a wheeled vehicle.

Most of you have probably seen this, but for documentation purposes, this high-flying kid in a toy jeep made the cover the January 30, 1943, issue of Collier’s Magazine. There are a couple pretty cheap issues on eBay.
