I have followed with great interest the postings concerning the correct
length shovel for the Jeep. I do not have (yet!) a Jeep but I plan to have
one ASAP.
It seems that two sizes are/were available from Home Depot (for $ 22.00).
The shorter one is about 4 inches shorter: however, nobody answered Gordon

Does it means that the Jeep used two sizes of shovels? Please, explain!
Thank you for any advise!

P.S. While at Beltring I have seen a lot of shovels for sale, different
lengths, all with handle, but I have not bought any of them due to lack of
info at the moment.
