Did you change out your frame also yours looks like the m101a2 really good trailer for slightly lifted trucks
Thanks. Still the original frame from 1968. I've only upgraded the axle and trailer lights. Everything else, including pintle hitch, is all original. I believe you are correct that it's a M101A2. I love it. What plans do you have for yours?

Must be JK lettering week, just added name to our 2013 (did not want to lose the Rubicon off the hood, so placed it in the space below rear side windows. Also added Ham Call # to rear window and a couple of OB stickers. I like the Flag hood latches, where did you find those, we have a grayed out flag theme on the Jeep that those would work well. Replaced the factory rubber bands with some from Daystar, they definalty stop the hood flutter, but take three gorillas to fasten them the bands are so stiff..lol

It’ll become overland ready over time. I have to figure what I want to do on it first. Move everything over or do it differently.
Thinking blank slate - a chance for redemption to improve on those little things that ended up quirky or just do not get used like you thought you would. Been building our new to us 2013 Jk for a few months, and learned so much on the WJ over the years we have found what works best, and quality of work has improved in the years...lol besides we don't have the option of moving things over as #1 we are keeping them both, and #2 different platforms. Look forward to seeing what you come up with, have gotten a few ideas from you posts on the copcar.
