Welcome to eWillys.com, a website for vintage jeep enthusiasts. I update this website nearly every day with jeep deals, jeep history, interesting reader projects, jeep related info, and more.
These quick searches can help you find things on eBay. People list in the wrong categories all the time, so don't be surprised to see brochures in the parts area for example.
The links to posts below show jeeps grouped by models, condition, and other ways. Some of these jeeps are for sale and others have been sold. If you are unsure whether a vehicle is still for sale or not, email me at d [at] ewillys.com for more info.
There are plenty of interesting, unusual, historic and surprising stories related to Jeeps and their owners. In addition, some of these features have nothing to do with jeeps. This link will display all featured stories starting from the latest.
Looking for parts and not sure where to go? There are a variety of large and small new and used parts sellers both online and offline.
Importantly, the allure of buying a project jeep can be romantic. The reality of restoring a jeep can be quite different, expensive and overwhelming without the right tools and resources. So, tread carefully when purchasing a "project". If you have any concerns about buying a vintage jeep, or run across a scam, feel free to contact me for help, comments or concerns .
I thought this Warn brochure was interesting. It’s in excellent shape. It bought it as part of a lot of brochures. It’s approx 3″x3″.
that is very cool, need to find me one of those to go with my cutaway hubs
I wonder if that was an insert in the new car literature. I always wondered why hubs on all 4x4s since then didnt have that “automatic” capability. It sure is a good idea and very practical.
My eyes confuses my Gray Matter. And I don’t have much of that stuff left. Mostly Black Matter there now. Anyway, the last pictorial representation of number five indicates true left handed screwing threads. No problems, I can see it working when number three, the clutch is engaged. However, the first and second pictorial is problematically straining my Gray Matter links. Do I see a reversal of the engraved LOCK -> and FREE -> visual indication? Maybe, and I say maybe I might be seeing things slightly different. But I closed one eye at a time to verify that the visual impact was what it was. I think. Dave I believe you may have a rare piece here and I don’t know if it comes close to the upside down bi-plane stamp. But none the less it could be! Maybe, just maybe.
I have this Model of Warn Hubs on a 1970 CJ-5 and a 1978 CJ-7. I also had them on two Command Track Jeep pickups and a CJ5 I no longer own. I left them in “Free”during most of my exploring Colorado Mountain trails and running the sand hills in Oklahoma. I just shifted into four wheel drive and the hubs locked when driving forward. In two wheel drive the hubs would free wheel. I only locked the hubs when I was in four wheel drive and needed compression braking. My best friend was a Jeep Dealer and most of the hubs he sold were the automatics. Warn also sold a repair kit. I only had to repair one set. That wasn’t the fault of the hub, it was too much driving in floor pan deep water and fording too many creeks.
I may have some prints material on these in Kansas. I will check next trip back there.
