Re: What is this pull handle?

Sean >> Sean I think you nailed it right on the head with the PTO. To use the PTO the tranny would normally be put into neutral. Then if you didn't have a hand throttle you would have to use the gas pedal. This would be cumbersome at best so a hand throttle would be installed. Since PTOs were available on all of these vehicles they would have come with hole even if they didn't come with the PTO. Mind you this is just my deductive reasoning an I could be wrong. How about we hear from you guys with PTOs on the CJs. Do you have a provision for a hand throttle? Rick S |

T-90
Ron C
After rebuilding my T-90, and then doing it again because I forgot to put the oil shield in
place, I have a question. I have the utility manual for Jeep vehicles but it does not cover the 6-230 engine...which I have. In the exploded view, it shows a washer betweeen the rear main bearing and the gear which drives the transfer case but mine did not have such a washer when disassembling it. Is this because someone else left it off or is it not used on my 62 pu. Thanks Ron Cox 62 PU 6-230 |

Re: 53 CJ3B Parts Jeep Questions, October 14, 1998

Percival moderator -- WillysTech -- astarcher@... wrote: Today I ran across a '53 CJ3B for sale for $200. No title. The "B" is in pretty amazing shape for that amount and if I had a space for it, it would be on it's way to my house. It looks fairly complete and restorable to me. The grill is in very good condition (trim rings on lights are pitted though), the left front fender is good also, and the right isn't too bad. (some one drilled > holes in the tops for Postal style turn signals) The tool box and floors have classic rust syndrome, the little steps are rusted bad, and has other body rust. The windshield frame has surface rust but is savable, glass is busted. Has the seat frames, but material is long gone. No rear seat. F head looks complete, even has oil bath air cleaner and accessories. Has narrow 15" wheels that look like smaller versions of the 16" ones off my 2A. White w/ forest green wheels. The hood hinge was rusted away and you can see the seam down the middle of the hood from the outside, but otherwise OK. No tailgate. Farm implement hitch on rear. My questions are: What axles came under a '53 CJ3B and what gear possibilities? Could the 15" wheels be original? Anyone (especially in Ohio) interested in buying a parts Jeep w/ me? Anyone just want the owners info so they can save the noble beast? I was at work when I saw the Jeep and couldn't crawl around it cause I've already ruined too many pairs of Dockers due to Jeeps. (Gets expensive) I'm going to try to see it again this weekend. Oh, one more thing, no overdrive or it would already be in my drive. Jack Starcher Lewis Center, Ohio '46 CJ2A |

Special plates
Bernie Daily
Michigan has a similar law. You can register an "authentic" plate forHere in New York. I live where there are cows. You can run "year of manufacture" plates. My '64 Buick Riviera has a set of the black background and yellow World's Fair plates. I had to have a historical insurance card and supply an unused number plate. The cost is $23 per year renewable annually. It's neat, I only have to run a rear plate, too. When the current registration runs out on the Willys it will get a '56 commercial plate. I also have a 1956 NYS Thruway toll plate. It is the size of a motorcycle plate and! blue and white to match the truck. People seem to be getting used to the "vanity" plates. The YOM plates really attract attention. Bernie Daily |

If I'm looking at the same picture you are, the caption above the picture says: "Notice the governor handle of the LHS of the dash." Now look at the very left side of that same picture. You can just make out the round dark knob that should be the headlights. So, what is the white knob for and what is the large handle for? A couple of pictures down shows a "NOVI engine governor", so one of these has to be for that, the other? Don't know. Maybe the other knob has something to do with the "trafficators" mentioned in the picture above. What the heck is a "trafficator" anyway? The windshield looks a little strange to me as well...seems like its a little taller on top than normal, more metal above the glass. But, since I'm looking at a 3A windshield everyday I wouldn't know for sure. Jeeps are the best wrote:

There are some vaguely written laws about how much and when you can drive a car with a Historic plate, but they are rarely enforced. They just want to make sure you're not using it for your sole transportation. I took this a step further and made myself a "personalized" historic plate. Michigan plates in the 40's and 50's used three pairs of digits, so I bought several old rusty plates at swap meets and cut/welded/filled my self a 1947 Michigan plate that is license # 47-CJ-2A. It came out great and I can't wait 'til the jeep is finished so I can use it! Frank Sanborn Charlotte, Michigan '47 CJ-2A |
