1959 CJ5 Rebuild 74 Buick 231V6 oddfire T14 D20 D30 D44 frame boxed roller engine ready,
1967 CJ5 V6 225 T86aa D18 D27 D44 runs needs work,
1954 CJ3B F4-134 T90A D18 D25 D44 Half Cab needs tub,
If you have stock equipment from both it should fit. But stock was a long time ago and you don't have much info about your CJ or the 3B.
My 67 CJ5 w/ the V6 came with a plow and we looked at installing it on my 54 CJ3b and based on the measurements from both service manuals it would have fit. Too bad the 3B was just too rusty to use yet....
But - depending on the type of plow that is installed in this 3B, some had a hydraulic pump that runs off the engine pully (called a high-low pump) and depending on the engine you have in your 66, it may or may not easily fit. If you have the stock fhead 134 then no worries, but something larger might require some creative adapting to install the pump. The plow that came on my 67 is electric over hydraulic as far as raise/lower, and it has to be turned (as in get out of the jeep...) manually from side to side. So MY PLOW would be a pain to use if you were plowing as a business. A hydrau-turn (I think that's what it's called) is what you would want - it's what I what to convert mine into.
I don't know if this info helps any....I have some pics of my '67 and the plow in my gallery here if you wish to look.
