1948 Willys Jeep CJ-2A not just another old Jeep - it's a legendary
war-era design reborn for modern adventure. Owning this 1948 CJ-2A
means owning a piece of Jeep history that's been thoughtfully
upgraded to hit the trails today. It retains the hallmark flat
fenders, seven-slot grille, and no-nonsense utilitarian style that
define the Jeep brand's roots, while featuring custom touches that
make it one-of-a-kind. Under the hood, this vintage Willys now
roars with a 1973 Buick V6 engine - a huge upgrade over the
original "Go-Devil" 4-cylinder (which made only about 60
horsepower). It's mated to a GM TH350 3-speed automatic
transmission, a legendary heavy-duty gearbox known for its
durability and smooth operation. The automatic makes crawling
through technical terrain easier - no clutch to worry about, just
point and go. Dana 44 Front & Rear Axles - Heavy-duty Dana 44s at
both ends, vastly stronger than stock axles, built to withstand
larger tires and hard off-road use without breaking. Rear
Differential Locker - Locks the rear axle on demand so both wheels
turn in unison, dramatically improving traction in mud, rocks, and
steep climbs. When others are spinning one tire, this CJ claws
forward with both rear tires biting. Dana 20 Transfer Case - Rugged
two-speed 4x4 transfer case (High/Low range) from later Jeeps,
providing a low crawling gear for technical sections. The Dana 20
is a proven unit known for its reliability and beefy gear-driven
design. Front Disc Brakes - Upgraded to modern disc brakes up front
for vastly improved stopping power and fade resistance compared to
the original drums. This Jeep can actually stop confidently on
steep descents and paved roads alike. 8,000-lb Front Winch - An
electric winch rated at 8,000 pounds is mounted to the front
bumper, ready to yank you (or your buddies) out o out of trouble.
Lastly, the rear bumper doubles as a air tank with an auxiliary air
pump for those flat situations. Trail-ready, timeless, and tough
