Hey North-Shore,

I have an old tub that might have those rear brackets.

That same tub still has the center part that was so rusted on yours.

If you are interested I can take some pictures of them for you.

I have no plans to fix that tub.

Let me see if I can cut out the center section and then see what kind of shape it is in.

I will try to cut that part out this weekend and take pictures. Work has been busy and it won’t stop raining.

See what you think about these pictures.

The blackness on the underside is from the tar undercoating. This used to be a USMC jeep.

Glad to see it installed. That old USMC tub has saved an old US Army tub and a Canadian Army tub. Semper Fi! 8)

The brackets you need are offered by Classic Enterprises out of Barron Wis.
They call them tail light panel rear body angle support $10.

I need some for my 64CJ5 tub.
