Can we get this tailgate and just install it on our truck in place of the one that came with the kit? Will they match up and swap out?

  • A: Nobody makes the Willys Truck tailgates with the WO. It just has to be painted on.

  1. I am trying to find a tailgate that was on my grandpas CJ 2 or 3 a or b. It was a 60 something it had a valve cover on it but I cannot find a tailgate or a decal or stamped one with what my grandps had on his. It was a tornado with the script 4Wheel Drivw beside it on the passenger side it may have been on the quarter panel. Im not sure. could someone please help me find this emblem or stamping.
