    Hi,

    Been offline for a while, but am back. I picked up my "Tractor" a few years ago, but have been unable to learn anything about its provenance.

    All I do know is that my Jeep was a custom-bodied, former airport "Tug." The chassis is a 1975 CJ5, a super-low first gear, and a transfer case with "4H-Neutral-2L-4L." There is no regular 2wd selection.

    Any ideas of suggestions would be appreciated.

    I’d be interested in seeing what the transmission and transfer case are.

    Very nice, sure to get a lot of attention. That is a workhorse for sure bet it has an extremely low 1st gear or lowgeared transfer case or both

    Need to post any i.d. plates or stamped numbers if present.
    Check the frame in the expected places as well as firewall.
    All military or factory built special purpose vehicles have plates that include spec info.
