@Willys1948CJ2A - They did a pretty decent job on the rocks but lousy on the highway. The Willys is mostly used in the midwest where the Boggers are the only way to go. I would have preferred something much less aggressive for Moab but I used what I had.
@madbritwillys56 Cool i have 36 in swampers on my 48 CJ-2A and love them up here in washington just thinking about when i get new ones trying boggers. Great looking jeep by the way.
@madbritwillys56 I'm guessing it means that: Someone with a flat fender jeep isn't a rookie and doesn't need some tool spotter like the rookie in a "jk unlimited" jeep.
@dgbsco I have a JK Unlimited that's up for sale. It's too big, too heavy and the visibilty is horrendous. So bad you need a spotter for just about every obstacle. Just got to love the Willys where you sit up high and can always see 3 tires.
Well, I did decide on my next rig and just bought it about 4 months ago.
Got a 2000 TJ with 80K, 6" lift, 1" body w/ 35's all setup and for one hell of a price. Now maybe I can make it out there and do some crawling with ya so you can show me up...LOL
Spare Tire - 34 x 9.5 x 15LT Interco Super Swamper TSL on a cookie cutter black spoke wheel. (Just to get off the trails or make it legal for trail riding only)
You can always rent a jeep in Moab and check them out before buying. They have some decent Rubicons with 33s and lockers at both ends. There are so many rigs to check out though you go a little crazy
I will have to try that, of course my only worry is screwing it up and then having to pay for it..that would suck...LOL...but it would be fun...hahahaha
Thanks for the compliment. I have a Hemi JK and a well equipped TJ but they pale in comparison to the old Willys. In fact I have both up for sale because they are just not as much fun as the Willys although the ride to the trail head can be a bit of an adrenalin rush.
Last year was my first Safari with the Willys but I have been to Moab many times with my TJ and JK. The Willys performed far better than both and was a hundred times more enjoyable to drive and see the Canyonlands in.
I have been in love with your tub for months. Your Willis is my by far favorite to watch. Everything you encounter seems effortless, I am amazed at the performance of that older machine, it is fantastic from where I sit.
If I saw that think drivin down the road I would piss my pants
