The Official "What The Heck Is This?" Thread

These were in my parts box. I don’t remember removing either one 10 years ago when I first got the Jeep.

Drive shaft cover?


Transmission mount? Where?


Thanks

 

Those are for a Jeepster Commando with D20. The first part supports the bearing at the middle of the two piece driveshaft. I'm not sure exactly how the mount works but it is from the same vehicle.

 

I wonder how the heck I got these parts then ?!?!?. Going back into the spare parts box I guess.

 

The bottom one looks like the transfer case mount on A 1974 CJ5 with 4 speed transmission . I have one just
like it on My CJ5. Mine is broken , would this one be for sale?

Thanks Mel.

 

OK, I am lost to figure out what this goes to. It was in a box of parts I picked up with a Jeepster. Any thoughts ?

 

GEMMER made steering boxes and that's one. Not stock to Jeeps obviously.

 

Thanks guys. Would this be good choice to swap out a ross box ? That's if I could figure out arms. Although I did fit it to a cast iron Saganaw box mount from a J truck I think and it fit perfectly. I wish I took a picture of the mount, but its the one that fits into the frame and gets bolted to the frame from above.

 

3”x 1 3/4” C channel on 67 CJ5. Someone please tell me that’s not supposed to be there.

 

That's not suppose to be there.

 

No, that's all wrong… it was an oak 2x6 on my first '56.

 

Thanks Howard. I will either throw it on ebay or find a way to use it on something else, like opening a secret compartment somewhere on the jeep.

 

Looks like a portion of an exhaust clamp too

 

Not sure if it’s holding anything together. Ain’t dug that deep yet.

 

New floor pans and floor supports are in. What is the large hole (3") in the drivers side floor for? I thought it was for the fuel lines but I see most folks go to the outside with Fuel lines. How do you seal that hole?

 

This is where the drain plug for the fuel tank hangs out.

 

you can see it in the upper part of the pic
