I would be happy to see what you come up with.

I was wondering when someone would spot that pioneer trailer. My friend is attempting to buy it. If it's still sitting there by the end of the month when I pick up my trailers I will put information on here. He only wants $500 for it. I'm sure I'll regret not buying it.

Don't worry. He'll get what's coming and there is ALWAYS another jeep tucked in a barn or under a tarp on the edge of a field. For some reason, I have a radar for old jeeps. I went on a Willy's pickup truck kick and I found one rotting in a field (got it for free for hard parts), another...

From a private seller I got a deal on an M105A2 and what the guy called a generator trailer. I attached pictures of both. The mystery trailer is the flat bed one. Any know what model trailer it is? I think I did good for $650 for both. The M105A2 has a green cover in the bed and only light...

I singled handedly bottle necked both lanes of the NY Thruway going 55 mph. Even though people could pass me, the volume of traffic was so high I still caused a jam! BUT I still got nothing but love from people. Some peace signs or thumbs up from people and that "honk" arm movement from some...

No, it didn't have final drive hydraulic planetaries or portal reduction hubs or anything fancy. just plain ole axles.

Not sure, but they're not Rockwell top-loaders. They are large and beefy and have a removable center section oriented like a Ford 9".

Having independent front and rear steer would make it a decent off road buggy if you made it a little lighter.

You don't need a CDL but it is always a good idea to have it for the lessons in big truck driving. I don't know who else to recommend. Spend some time on the phone getting quotes. Other insurer's like Allstate might quote you a lot more with commercial registration. I just talked to a state...

If you want to drive everyday you need normal registration which is more expensive than the antique registration that limits you to one day a week driving. Now, I have my insurance with Haggerty which is super cheap. I have one antique vehicle with the antique registration with them and one...

I wasn't sure if that was the case. That is even easier to work with then!

If we don't have anything documented by the time I do my spring oil change then I will gladly bust out the thread gauges and calipers to record some dimensions. Ok, let's get serious. I'm not sure how the sealing surfaces are designed on the OE filter or the adapters until I get a chance to do...

I'm in the same boat. Napa doesn't recognize the 5131 number as anything other than a water pump gasket.

Here is a GREAT but brief lecture on the idea of open source information, this one focusing on the equipment that is key to the modern civilization. http://www.ted.com/talks/marcin_jakubowski.html

I was also hoping someone would publish drawings for these adapter bases. I have the means to manufacture them but like others, I have better things to do than go out and measure everything. It's like the AR-15 part drawings that are online. No reason we can't do the same with deuce parts...

This isn't at a salvage yard but I thought I would post it here to share with anyone after these. I was at an out of the way saw mill to look at trailer and the guy was showing me everything he had and this was the most interesting thing to see. He rattled off all the spec's on it but all I...

It does look useful in some ways, like working on the engine, but man is it odd looking haha. The first thing I thought of was the Jurassic Park movie where the guys were out on seats on the front of the vehicles with nets and ropes to catch the dinosaurs.

What was the idea behind the massive front platform?

If I don't make the soft top for my CJ, then the only thing I want to make is a winch drum cover.

I knew what you meant. Now I'm curious, what would you do with the rest of the material?
