I just replaced the rear shocks on my A2 with Monroe part #66627. Around $35 each on Rock Auto. I went this route as I didn't want to buy a 30 plus year old NOS shocks. The last NOS lasted about a year.
Note: The compressed length is the same but the extended length of the Monroe is...
M151A2 is ready for the journey. There are 3 other jeeps joining us. 1 from VA and 2 coming in from FL. All on trailers of course! Looking forward to the event.
We're heading home in the morning. The A2 performed and ran well. The weather was very nice and we had a good time. Next trip is Wind Rock, TN in October.

Did a few trails today, weather was very nice. It's very dry here and the creeks are low. Only a handful of people here today, many more expected tomorrow.
We're rolling out tomorrow morning and should arrive around noon. Back of truck is loaded with 151 body panels and I have 2 sets of full side panels strapped to the rear gate on the trailer. I have a customer meeting me at the event to pick up his parts. Then we'll hit the trails till Sunday...

I have way more experience with the 151's. Last summer a friend and I did the entire Blue Ridge Parkway in our M151A2's, down and back. 1,362 miles in 7 days. I took spare waterpump, fuel pump, coils, distributor, fuel filter, gaskets, fluids and tools. He also took spare parts. Way...
I do not. There is a footman loop on the hood that you tie down to. If you don't have a strap, a small cord will work. Anything is better than the windshield flipping up!
