 Topic: Side pocket removalPosted: 20 Jan. 2022 at 10:06pm |

Anyone removed the top bow side pockets on the 2A? They appear to be spot welded, and would like to remove mine for a cleaner look. Anyone know of a site that details this?
Thanks 46 CJ2A Daisy Mae |

If you use some sandpaper on the flange against the body you should be able to see the spot welds.
There is a special drill bit designed for cutting through spot welds, or they can be drilled through with a regular drill bit if you don't mind filling the holes. The pockets make a handy place to carry an axe, so I leave them on my Jeeps.
