    I'm beginning to take my tub off my 75 cj5 to repair rust. Need to disconnect the electric from the firewall, does the bulkhead plug just pull out? It seems real tight I don't want to force it or break it. Thanks

    There is a bolt in the center. The left and right halves are separate and can unplug separately. The socket is continuous with the fuse panel on the other side of the firewall. On the interior side, there are long socket head screws that hold it to the firewall, as I recall. Expect it to be filled with dark brown dielectric grease. It's fine - you can clean it off and use new or just put it back.
