I've been reading about max tow or not etc... I just bought my willys jt, getting it tmro and I'm wondering if mine has the max tow? Sales men are useless when I asked they had no clue what I'm talking about... I attached the window sticker and the pics of my new willys, and a picture of the fenders.
Shhhh ( I got the truck for 54,000 canadian, my 4xe was a lemon and they gave me a great price for this jt, also quite alot for trade in for my 4xe)

No, that's not a Max tow. Your fenders tell the tale and window sticker back it up. You have the standard tow kit.

Agreed though, great looking Willys!

Stickers are funny.

"4 Wheel Drive decal"

This is to set you apart from the 2WD Gladiators.
Funny fact. I was re-watching "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" the other day and the 4 Wheel Drive decal was on the back of the 1955 Willy's in the movie. I never knew that decal went that far back on Jeeps and more specifically the Willy's.

In your reading, what did you learn about the Max Tow? Were you looking to buy one?

Not a max tow, pretty sure it cannot even be added to the Willys package. Don't worry though, the 3.73's are fine unless you need 35's or bigger. Even so, some people don't research with 35's, kinda depends on your use case. You do get an LSD though!

the window stickers is a poor place to find out what EXACTLY is on YOUR vehicle ..goto this FCA website and enter YOUR vin from the window sticker ...https://www.jeep.com/webselfservice/BuildSheetServlet?vin=1C6HJTFG9ML588854 you may be surprised what you find my window sticker and build sheet look like two different trucks

I run 35s on a base Sport with 3.73s and even then I'm fine. Still hits 8th gear on flat land and my speedometer hasn't even been calibrated yet. However if I ever did 37 inch tires then yes Max Tow would absolutely be needed.

Or replacing gears with 4.10 or lower.

All I tow is a big 65 feet yacht . Just kidding small 16 ft aluminum boat. Don't need max tow. I'll be putting on 315s tho, and possibly 2 inch lift

Not a Max-Tow but should be a good one. Wish you better luck with your JT. A big plus is the Trac-Loc rear axle though, I've had a Trac-Loc in 3 axles and have missed it in my JT.

It's a throwback to the old jeeps. Like this one. The whole Willys package is a tribute to the old Willys jeeps and trucks. I originally wanted a Willys, but ended up with a Rubicon. So I added that logo and some raised white letter tires to my Rubi. I'm faking haha.
