This is where the horizontal pieces from your rear cargo cover bows get stowed when not in use. They go from one side to the other and then get strapped on both sides. I strap my tow bar in there. The uprights with corners attached go in the mall rectangle holes in the lip of the bed frame next...

Nice clip. I think the guys at the guard gate were waiting for you to slow down as you were leaving. :) So what is the box you have mounted under the front bumper? Is that hydraulic fluid storage?

Here is another essential D.U.K.W. training video. Was that :papabear:at 20:41??? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tT_SChzTGvw#t=1241s I tried to embed the video, but just couldn't figure it out. PM me if you know how and I will edit it.

Rkrug, How difficult was it to remove the entire doghouse & gear shift column along with disconnecting the linkages? I think I like that path better then cutting holes, plus there seems to be a lot more room to work. Patracy & Rkrug thanx for the step by step pictures.:beer: And for those who...

I thought that all of you DUKW enthusiasts would enjoy watching this video the local news station recorded about John Ingleke, who is planning on swimming his DUKW down the Columbia river to the national MVPA rally in Portland this year. In the most recent MVPA magazine, Steve Preston, mentions...

tburk/Tim, Danielle speaks the truth. For the last few years Varyag and crew have made it from Garfield down to my place in Kennewick, as a first leg. Then we head over to Napavine, via yakima and hwy 12, the following morning. There is plenty of room for your rigg and a place to sleep if you...

That is a great accessory build. Thank you for all of the detailed pictures. I have always wanted to do something similar for parades. I was going to with card board tubes, epoxy and a baby seat to the side of the blast shield. That way way we could throw a helmet on my buddies toddler, strap...

Gonna get might wet in that if it starts to rain. Looks Kool though.

This site is so great! Have I mentioned how much I love the Steel Soldiers Website and how much I appreciate the great job that the Administrators and Moderators do, so that I have a place that nurtures my Green Addiction? I do, I really do. Now that I have you all buttered up...:popcorn: In...

This past weekend I brought my M923 to participate in the Benton City Daze Parade. Then, for after the parade, a member of the group convinced the city to let us set our own little MV car show / static display in the local Park & Ride parking lot. This same batch has been doing parades & car...

Peter, I think I read 500 lbs for weight. I am no the MV purist, but I do know some. So those mods would be OK, I am not planning on paddling it across lakes at this time. Though putting a lunette ring back on would have to be done before pulling it with the Champ. Tony

Is there someone in the Monroe, WA area that might want to check out a M416 trailer (pic 2) for me? Jeep/ Small M416 Military Trailer I am looking to put a light, off road trailer behind my Austin Champ for trail riding. The trailer that would have been period correct for the Champ is a...

Kool! That makes me feel a little less hopeless. Now I can honestly tell folks that 'I have seen some DUKWs that were a bit more of a project than the one I got a hold of."

Glad to hear you made it to your destination safe & sound.[thumbzup]

Late post. Met Jame on Friday, Aug 10th at 14:30 in Vantage, WA. Here are some of the worst cell phone photos, but they are at least a record of the trip. Safe travels.
