Wow - what a title. I had built 3 M38A1's a while back and one of them was tossed off to the side and donated to CAMO for parts. The other two Deb owns and Dinger65 owns.
Several months back someone comes into my office and tells me his transmission sounds like a box of rocks. I will not tell you how non-mechanical this individual is nor care for mechanical stuff - it either goes or does not - it either brakes or it hits something trying to stop.
He was headed to the Waffle House for his am wake up call - going like a Bat out of H - and he had no concept the transfer case was in LOW RANGE - this was a brand new rebuilt engine BTW. SO he calls me on the phone and all I can tell him is - ya better wrecker it home cause you are dead in the water.
I might not get to the drivetrain before the rally - but I did manage to get his jeep hauled back here to my house and will just work on it as I can (that is non-commander warp speed for ya newbies) as anyone that does this and does not pay attention has less attention from me than when we began.
BUT - the good news is - I get to take MORE pictures of a totally fubared M38A1 total rebuilt trans and transfer case that had been run to destruction - now that is COOOOOOOOL.
Zout headed outside to try to push the jeepy to the crest of the hill - jump in and hope his brakes work before I get to my garage - pics to follow
