Hello and thanks for taking time to read this.
Can an MB body be made to fit on a CJ3B frame? The F head engine would not be used.
Thank you!

Yes. One or two of the left side body mounts will need to be relocated to the inside of the frame.

There even a body kit called the MB/2A being sold for just that purpose. The supply of restorable WW2 Jeeps is almost gone, whereas there are still plenty of CJ frames out there in the weeds. So, go for it.
