They look good! Hereabouts one would risk a ticket if the additional flood lights did not turn off. They definitely need to have their own switch. The light pattern on the headlight looks sharp. Very nice.
@Elijah95 Thanks for the follow up and the pictures! Clearly, it was having a beer that led you to the breakthrough. Good man.

I've rebuilt a multifuel. I am not claiming to be an authority on the matter.
You can get a piston and liner and do it in frame, pulling head and oil pan.
Before buying any parts I'd open the engine up and see what's what. There is a risk of metal having gone elsewhere and clearly you'd take a...
@V8srfun FWIW, I went through that when I did one of my first oil checks one Spring. "That oil looks awfully thin!". Smelled dipstick "could be diesel smell..maybe..." OMG. Fuel in oil..WTF.....
Oil sample taken, sent off....
NOTHING wrong. Nada.
Purely in the head (the one between the...
This is a thread I found: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/reviving-a-multifuel.124585/
I have never revived a crate engine/preserved engine but dealt with unknown takeouts.
- using starter or wrench verify that engine turns over. If it doesn't, stop here; there is not going to be a...
I think it's a Delco 21si. Also, modern alternators may not be rated submersible but they sure get mounted in terrible locations where they are regularly soaked...and they still work.

I put in a Wolverine 24V alternator. Never looked back. Some complained about crappy service from the company. I never had an issue. Some fabricated their own bracket (really, does not look too hard if you have fabbing skills) and used an off the shelf 24V alternator. Power output to weight...
I adjusted the stops - but to allow more angle. The position they were in was unnecessarily restrictive. I have no rubbing or other issues with the kit.

Deuce stock wheel: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/deuce-wheel-width.35729/
In short - on stock wheels, dualled, 12.00R20 are too wide to be run within spec. You...
We have a good 2ft of snow on the ground and Spring thaw is still weeks away! Then the soil has to dry so I can actually park her on the grass. Weeks and weeks to go! :-(
Info from TM 9-2320-361-24-1 work package 0070 00
1. Remove locknut (15) from threaded stud (16) and remove threaded stud (16) of ball joint ( 18 from lever (17). 2. Loosen nut (19) on accelerator rod (14). NOTE Rod is shortened by turning ball joint clockwise on rod and lengthened by turning...
I think most sheet metal is 16 gauge. Washers...when butt welding a patch he tacks a few washers to one panel so the washers one half sticks out from the panel edge and gives the patch something to rest on/be welded to.
.....since removing the FDC without making any adjustments to the fuel quantity adjuster automatically leads to the fuel quantity injected being on the high side. The details will depend upon how the quantity setting was previously adjusted. High fuel quantity will increase power, but also drive...
With winch, drop sides and hard top. Nice score!
Looks like you have the PM and emergency breakdowns covered. The dragging brakes could be a master cylinder in need of having the fluid return hole cleaned out or it could be an air pack problem. When you do the oil change, you will be underneath...
