You ain't seen nuthin' of bubba's work until you owned an old Willys. Don't know what it is about Bubba and jeeps, but that CUCV doesn't have anything wrong with it compared to some work I've seen on old Willys.
Stainless steel brakes lines are EXCELLENT. But they do cost a lot. If you do make the replacement, it will be the last time you do. I did it on my old M725 ambulance and they looked and worked great.
Uh, this doesn't sound right. If it was a newer tank, like an Abrams or M-60 series, yes, I have seen them come out surplus with the demil requirement, but that's usually on-base, and the hull has to be cut in many places. If this M22 Locust is in private hands, it got surplussed years ago and...
What exactly is it that needs to move? If it's a trailer or something I can stick in the back end of the Dodge, you pay the gas and I'll pick up and bring back to 22630 and hold for the next leg of the journey.
A neighbor asked if I can paint up a propane forklift of his that he uses for work. It's currently 6 colors or so, he was a Navy vet and I thought it would be cool to repaint it the right color plus US NAVY stencils on the sides.
I care not about post count, mine is high enough. And I doubt I'll ever catch gimp or DH even if I wanted to.
Only the two first posts are relevant to MV ownership. The rest is crap that the mods can delete.
319, thanks for the info !
Does anyone know the mule bolt pattern, I know it's five bolts but not sure the dimensions. Are there any civilian trailer axles out there that would be able to use the Mule wheels?
I've seen sellers at Aberdeen have a hard time trying to sell M416 rims for $5 a piece. Heck, I've been one of them. You'll have an easy time finding extras at Aberdeen or any larger MV show.
I'll ask around, don't know more than 1 or 2 M37 owners in my area.
Do you think the standard gear puller would work? It's a three-armed tool with a bolt that you turn, pushes on the center nut, I can get that at Advance as well...
Is there a trick to removing the M37's steering wheel? I took the nut off, pulled and beat on it with a hammer until I was blue in the face, nothing. Went to Advance Auto Parts and borrowed a steering wheel puller, but it looks more like a collection of bolts than anything. Looking at the...
What is the official paint number (i.e. 24087, 34052, etc.) for the yellow paint the military sprays on support equipment like forklift trucks, warehouse trucks, etc.? Here's a vehicle with that paint color, just want to know more info on what it is officially called....
Looks pretty awesome! Now all it needs is a diesel engine and it would be perfect.
No, I'm not a big fan of replacing the stock engine with a 350 Chevy or similar V8 - if you're gonna step up in power, oil burner is the way to go.
