Definitely looks like a days hard labor to me @swiss ...
Can you tell us anything about what looks like a hydraulic jack on the ground in front of the right tire (or axle) ?

@goldneagle ,
I really enjoyed out conversation this afternoon.
What you do is really amazing!
We all know that Big Green Trucks are our thing, but you have created some amazing art. You mentioned Star Wars when we were talking. Lots of us were kids that went to the theater to see the...

I agree that if you have the factory 4-Battery configuration, the right front is 12v on my truck. That is always the "suspect" battery too if I let it sit too long and doesn't want to turn over. Charger on that battery alone solves my problem.

Keep us posted with your progress.
It sure looks mighty fine to me!

I don't know what the rules are, but the cause is definitely worthy of our support.
Yes, please post a link maybe? Hopefully several of us can be part of that event...

Nice truck! It looks like she is happy helping out around the farm.
Don't forget that we have the books here for it... Free download.
More pictures too when you can.
It is a 1971?

That is beautiful work.
I have to say that you really have the skills...
Extra nice! Really good that you were able to offer up this one for a raffle too.

So, if you paint it the darker green color - similar to "Hunter Green" my oldest son would absolutely HAVE to have it! He bought a real one for his wife. Now they have outgrown it, so he gets to drive it now. That might have been his plan all along.

Welcome to the Outfit!
It will be worth your time to grab the TM's (Technical Manuals) for your LMTV. Those crusty books will put you to sleep if you try to read them in a recliner, but they will be your source for solid answers. Downloading them and using Search in Acrobat will expedite...
