do you have a link to that? I can't find anything on the RI website other than people coming from other states need to self-quarantine for 14 days.
I just drove from MI to GA with a giant 7' box strapped to the top of the Jeep and no one batted an eye at me.
nowadays it's most likely a matter of which you can find in the junkyards or on craigslist. mid 90s cars aren't exactly as plentiful as they used to be.
today I've found you can mix the rice dish with the soup.
(it's possible I'm running low on food at this house, lol. but I'm heading south soon so it doesn't matter.)
I recommend being proactive with your search as they don't pop up very often. a search in the CC archives should bring up other owners you can try to bribe.
in theory you can use the peugeot crossmember with an AX-15 mount, move it back to the new holes, and use a 1" t-case drop to accommodate the height difference.
this page has a good writeup on it. hopefully the link works.
quick summary, very few Jeeps were ever shipped this way because it was expensive and time consuming. and they were never offered to civilians this way.

well, it certainly would freak me out, because that's more myth these days than anything else. I hate to burst your bubble, but that "kit" was put together by a company (omix ida?). very cool none the less.
lemme find a link...
