So a little back ground on the Jeep. A guy I work with has had the jeep around 8 years. He acquired the jeep when a family friend passed away. This gentleman was into surplus. When I brought the jeep home, it was loaded with (mostly) M151 take off parts. All of the tops, doors and side...

New to me MB. Frame number puts it at a late '45. Engine number falls within the range of the frame so could be original to jeep. Body is shot. Engine turns over, going to see if it'll run. From the little bit of searching I did, the top appears to be for an M38. This is my first WWII...

Has that truck been at the Weare, NH show?

This is the end cap repair. Note how ours fits the crossmember properly. No excessive gap like the original kit part.

Forming parts today. Part in primer is NOS.

We cut a couple of crossmembers today along with the repair kit end caps and associated parts. 9KW Fiber Laser cuts 16ga like butter. Next stop: Press Brake.

So I finished the prints and we're going to run some prototypes. Next will be the repair end caps.

At the end of the "jeep" season, I take the top off, put the windshield down and go for a ride. 35 degrees and sunny today! Guy

Thank you!

I think the issue is inconsistent dimensions on the repair kits. After a few conversations, people have seen the end caps to tall and sometimes to short. This has motivated me to draw the entire mid crossmember as a direct replacement. I'll also do the repair kit end caps as pictured above...

Found this on Rock Auto. I didn't see the Napa part number listed.

There is a post on the 503 asking about a gap on the mid crossmember outer end repair part. I have an end piece that I'm reverse engineering in order to reproduce as part of our 151 body panels. I also have a NOS mid crossmember. I did a test fit to the crossmember, my A1 and A2 and they...

Header wrap would help with your heat concerns.

We were able to get a ride in yesteday. It was cool and we had a few drops of rain but with the doors on the ride was enjoyable. The second water crossing was deep enough to get some water on the front floors.

That's a great looking A2!

Any Fall rides? Post some pictures! This was earlier today. If the weather is nice we're planning a ride this coming weekend.

Have you inspected the spindle nuts? If not, sounds like a good time to check.

We did 2 days of trail riding and had a great time. The weather was good 2 of the 3 days we were here. The rain day was spent touring the Brushy Mountain prison.
