Looking for some 2/0 tailgate chain ad used on Willys.
Need another 40” total of new chain for my trailer.
I already have the hooks. These chains will be a bit longer than a Willys tailgate chain. Yet looking for the same type and size of chain link. Perhaps you bought extra ???

Currently building my final F-134 powered 3B .

Thanks, for the idea …
Have not searched my local brick and mortar sources yet.

It amazes me as to how often folks do not at least pick up the phone & call their local brick and mortar stores. Heck these days most stores have a web page.

Considering that the CJs were originally touted by Willys as a farm vehicle many of the, to non-farm folks, "odd ball" stuff can be found at the local farm & ranch store or at the local hardware store. Heck, even the local auto parts store have many of this "odd ball" stuff in stock, or they can get it in quickly with zero shipping charges. These sources are my first go-to places for "odd ball" stuff & most anything. I like to shop locally.
