My personal opinion is to go with the M151A2. They have all the upgrades
and mods which were learned by experience with the earlier models,
particularly the ride and possibility of roll-over. Due to changes in the
rear suspension, A2 is very stable and you should have no problems.

Also, newer kits such as ROPS are made for A2 (although can fit earlier
models). And it is "the last jeep" for historical value.

Look through the archives of this list for lots more info and opinion. Also
search web for "MUTT" or "M151" and you will come up with sites with pics.

I owned one a few years back and it was pretty much trouble free. Rode lots
of miles on and off road, never had a roll over problem. Tons of parts
available. Just saw one at the Tierra del Sol 4x4 Safari in the CA desert
in March. Talked to the owner and he is doing fine with it(photo on P22 of
the July 98 issue of 4x4 Power magazine).

Good luck with your project,
chuck
