Forgot to answer you question about the color.

Can be gray.... light blueish gray.....or black or even army olive drab green.

It all depends if the engine was rebuilt in a military worshop and what paint they had available..... I prefer gray.

[JoãoBoscoBarbosa]

Bob,


I prefer gray too, then I paint the motor in Gray color, only motor not gear box, that I paint the Brown how all parts car.

I need other information, my truck not have this piece, see picture down.

You have this pieces in spare parts (I buy) or can you drawing this piece for I construct here?

Is that a picture of your truck or another truck?

Do you have a mechanics manual for the CMP ...... and a parets manual? The manuals are in English but have pictures of the principal assembly that would help you see how they are assembled.

I think you will need another CMP for spare parts. Easier to take parts from a spare truck. That is why we have 30 of them here all incomplete and mainly for parts.

The first part is a petrol/gasoline filters....usually too rusted to use. You do not need the original one you can use one from a modern truck. If you want to buy one the USA Jeep dealers sells them for about $100 to 120 each brand new.

The other parts.... the linkage for the front axle and for the transfer case are only found on the larger 3 ton CMP trucks and not easy to find. Your truck has been modified with parts of a larger 3 ton truck...called a C60 CMP./

I do not have a spare and they need to be very exactly the same as original to adjust for the shifting pattern of the truck.

Easier to make parts if you can borrow them and compare as you make the parts.

I am not sure what or how the modifications have been done exactly on your truck.
