I've seen the front suspension pictures before but never the rear one.

These pictures were a gift from Ken Lee to me and to Mutt Guru.

Ken Lee designed the original M151A2-LC for Ford and he later shared the blue prints he had of the design with Nate and I.

It is so cool to be freinds with a person who designed a Prototype.

Ken is currently restoring his own M151 up in Canada.

To know the man who made the original prototypes made our project so much more personal.

Bleddyn: I really like the muffler set up on that last pic of the rear suspension. The bumperetts look like their from an M38.

Maybe that's because the jeep with the solid axle was an A2...Look at the pic of the front suspension and you'll see the fenders and the bigger lights.
There is one nut on a M151 that is very difficult to remove.....

I was witing on the rear muffler reply!

Unread post by M151-LC » December 10th, 2007, 3:54 am

I have duplicated this on the M151-LC with a slighly larger Jeep Cherokee muffler, The muffler was in such great shape I could not just let it go to the scrap yard...LOL

I even got money back for the cat converter...LOL

The oval muffler clamps in better then the old round muffler as well as it was a good choice in the end.

Great replies guys thanks.
