Schmidt Meister Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 This actually might not belong here in this thread but I love my role as a rebel … and I didn’t know where else it would fit, lol. As I was roaming around checking out this Monroe lift, I happened upon this website and it has a lot of information about the Jeep on the farm after the war and it’s usage as a farm vehicle. FarmJeep.com is home to stories and information about the post-WWII Willys Jeeps that were real transformers, changing from truck to tractor to power unit in just a few seconds. While the Farm Jeep was a specific model, we apply the term to any Jeep that performs the tasks of a tractor. Here you will find information on the Love, Newgren, Monroe and Stratton hydraulic 3-point lifts that made the Jeep a true tractor. You will also find lists of resources we use for our Jeep projects and for our research activities. History is important to us and whether it is Jeeps in our family or the history of the companies that made the Farm Jeep components, we try our best to be accurate. https://www.farmjeep.com/?fbclid=IwAR0zitNpkGvQ6RU4vqrJ4u98wLN2V0lpbLAMptmhxD4t8SnPx19DOjX9uw4 In the fall of 1944, Willys produced a document that would be the definitive statement on the post-war jeep. Titled “Jeep Planning,” the brochure outlines the “Peace Jeep” as a “4-in-1 Farm Power unit: 1. The Jeep as a light tractor; 2. The Jeep as a mobile power unit; 3. The Jeep as a light truck; 4. The Jeep as a utility car.” Number one on the list is “a light tractor” and we will examine this role for the CJ in more depth. https://www.farmjeep.com/the-jeep-as-a-light-tractor/ 1948 Monroe hydraulic implement lift for Willys universal farm Jeep promo movie XD48144 https://youtu.be/N-7IlhWOg24 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwalchmai Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 A pox on the Greens, may they all burn in the gasoline-powered flames of hell. When I read this I felt the same as when I read that Natalie Wood had drowned. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
