How's the project coming?

Welcome from TN.

In theory you could remove the steering arm without removing the wheel because the bushing would still be in the spindle. But I would not recommend this because if that bushing does move or come out, all the weight would probably damage the king pin. I also don't think you could accurately...

The often over looked and ignored logistics guys, well until they want something from us. The first one I got was a helmet top and they were a lot better against rain and wind. Though I always felt that all models that weren't armored were loud.

It kinda looks like a voltage regulator. Was the Jeep converted to 12V? Where do the wires run to?

I've heard of that rattle too. Right now I'm not that far into my rebuild but from what I've read, adding the spring was part of WO-803358. I haven't found that work order myself but also haven't searched too much. But if it goes away after adding a click or two and then comes back when...

If you look for pictures online, make sure you look at 3 or more pictures of the same item. That way you get a better idea and don't just look at what one person did because they might have changed something. Also Surplus City Jeep Parts has their parts catalog setup with pictures from the...

Here are some after the rebuilds but without the accessories. Been wrapped up in a 48 ford and my 7.3 lately.

Here are some pictures of when I first got it before I started to tear it apart.

Saved and will read later. I believe I met Mr. Killblane when I was at Trans school in Eustis.

If you need some pictures of the military engine, trans, or transfer case let me know. I've got all mine rebuilt but haven't got a chance to paint and install them yet so pictures would be easy.

First off WELCOME! Using a low setting and properly baffled tank will decrease your risk. When these trucks are converted to tankers, without using a baffled tank, the water will "slosh" and will dramatically increase the risk of rollovers in turns and off road. Also it will make it a lot...

Welcome from TN

Let's hope they change the Demil Code!

To prevent the blackhole discussion of zombie apocalypse. That's where a lot of "bug-out" vehicle discussions go. Your building the best "camper" CUCV. Just avoid the doomsday talk.

It'd be too cold there for me to do anything but bug in! lol

I would be interested in a motor conversion thread also!

Looks good. Glad you were able to get it back up and running. Don't feel bad about the governor cover, I don't have one on mine.

Depending on how it is wired up, the main switch would not have to be turned. It could be set up using a relay to apply the main power. The alarm I had a civy truck was setup using a relay to apply power but after 15min it would shut off if the key was not put in and turned to make the factory...

If you already have it and she would be driving locally, then I think it could be a good idea. Have you talked to her about it? What does she think of it?
