Whatca' gonna' do with that funky winch install? If it is a 12-V job it won't play nice with the 24-V system...

He pays for the gas...

Kinda' reminds one of that old joke, "He works all day at the gas station pumping Ethel".

A true unicorn...

Yep, the ENDT-673 is a pricey motor, but it will run a good long time if you leave the governor alone and keep oil & water in it. My old M54A1 came to me back in the early 90's from a DRMO sale with some 22K on the clock. I've put another 25K on since, with no major work on the engine other...

Hen's tooth motor... Only seen 2 in my half-century of MV's. Both were in 8X8's.

Bury your spare tire 3' down, laying flat. That way you don't have to carry something extra. Don't forget to hook to it before filling the hole... BTW, this isn't meant to be funny. It works pretty well, I've had to do it on occasion to hold my truck back when winching another 5-ton.

Ya'all stand down on the front park/turn/BO lights. I have an original set with brackets on the way to Ken.

AN/PVS-5.

Since those IR's have hi/lo beam filaments, I never had a navigation problem with them. At least before some SOB stole my NV goggles.

Maybe a bad ground.

One way...

Seen it in one I towed from El Paso. Got me.

I have a good 400A manual transfer unenclosed switch you can have for the shipping from 85139. You would have to get an NEMA 3 box if used outdoors, NEMA 1 if indoors.

One might be ahead, just buying a bunch or AR500 plate, a 300A stick-arc, a plasma cutter and go for it. Build a drivetrain based on deuce or 5-ton parts, decent powerplant, eTc. Copy the basic look, 99 out of 100 won't know the difference. It would probably be just as "hard" as a real one...

Snow. Snow? Oh yeah, I remember snow. White stuff that drops from the sky. Posted from the land of 140w gear oil...

As built, the Goat had a special aluminum alloy Detroit 3-53 engine, rather than usual cast iron. This enabled the weight balance from fore to aft necessary in swimming. That engine was unfortunately prone to cylinder liner fretting, allowing coolant to leak into the oil pan. In later...

I'll have to take some pix and post them here. Once the simple mod is done, it is really easy to get in & out. DG
