This was published around 1950. It’s less story and more marketing, but still interesting. The argument that the trencher doesn’t affect the roadability of the jeep might be a stretch ….

Cool brochure. Thanks for posting.
One of the most interesting contraptions attached to a Jeep. Didn’t know it could be winch powered either. And adding 1100 pounds….. ouch!
I have one of the early Jeep-A-Trench in working condition except for the need of a new clutch. It originally had a rachet drive for forward motion but I converted it to hydraulic drive with a winch on the front, It also has a metal 1/2 cab. Has dug miles of trench.
Hi Daniel,
Nice to hear it is getting used!
