Looking for a set of front frame horns for a 47 cj2a. The po welded a nasty looking front bumper on mine. Have some off a m38a1 but would rather find the right one's.

Walck’s had them…🥲
Kaiser-Willys shows them, but typical of K-W, they say the same ones fit ‘41-‘48, MB, GPW, and CJ2-A. They will fit and work, but they cannot be correct for all of those. I suspect that they are correct for the wartime jeeps but not for the CJ2-A. But then, once the bumper is on, only you and the jeep police would know. 😁 BW

having just done this - I can confirm waht Bruce says. They fit. They work. But if you want it to be "correct" you need to do some fabrcation to attach the bumper civilian style.

Looked at the the ones off of the m38a1 I can make them work and they would look better than what's there. This jeep's not going to be correct anyway.

Double-check your distances - weld joint-to-grille mount, spring hanger, bumper, etc,etc. M38A1 may be longer than CJ2-A.

they are but I can move the hangers back. I'm good to 12v before they widen out.
