The gauges are held in with a retaining clip that goes behind the gauge,
held in place with screws (usually the screws that hold the wires to the
gauges) and then is bent around the gauge and presses against the back of
the dash. (its shaped like channel iron). Might I suggest that you invest in
a good Service/rebuild manual. This is eccentil for anyone who is rebuilding
a Jeep. Get one for your jeep model. I rebuilt a essential-A Flat fender
Jeep from the ground up in my garage, and I could not have done it with out
the service manual. (wish all these vehicles were as easy to rebuild as it
was). The manual would answer most of your questions.
Good Luck,
Mark M-886

Subject: [MV] Guage removal?
How do I remove the gauges from the dash of my 1947 CJ2A? Seems like te
last guy who painted it got a lil happy with the spray gun and bathed the
gauges in OD paint. Then came back and scraped a rectangle down the center
of each bezel to be able to see them. Never heard of masking tape I guess??
:(
I plan on removing them all and either cleaning them up and/or getting new
ones. Either way I need instructions on taking the current stock ones out.
Thanks guys!
Eric
