the "Dauntless" Buick 225 V6.

Transmission
The T-90 3 speed was the
standard transmission for the CJ-6 for many years. It's close brother, the T-86 3 speed was used with CJ-6s with the Dauntless

The CJ-6 used the Dana 18 from
'58 until '71. From '72-'75 they used the Dana 20.

The CJ-6 was first offered with the Dana 25 until 1965. The Dana
27 replaced it and was used until 1971. From 1972-1975, the Dana 30 was used in the CJ-6.
Rear Axle
The Dana 44 with two piece shafts
was used in the CJ-6 until mid-1970. A Dana 44 with
one piece shafts replaced it after that.

stamped on a metal plate located on the firewall, under the hood, on the
passenger side.
Nice 6! I have a '73 that I need to sell. What are the current prices for a clean body, and an SOA with D-44's FRT. and RR. I planned on using it, but haven't had the time. Thanks.
