On the power steering unit the nose actually stretches and deforms. When you rebuild you need to press in steel and then machine it to make up the difference. On the pump, also probably simpler to just replace. Best to just replace with NEW as rebuild might not fix.

That area deforms. Get a new pump

Making plans. I now have a Turbocharged P400 for my H1. I think that means that I will swap the Whipple unit with 6.5 engine to my M1025. Lots of decisions.

Way to make this is with thin silicone strips or brush filaments sandwiched between thin plates of steel or Aluminum.

Same thing with upgraded internals.

I love my 700R4

I’m concerned about the McDonalds Golden Arches in the backround. The military seats are already too far forward, so if you start sucking down too many BigMacs with cheese you might no longer fit. Just saying. LOL Really nice work!

There is a whole paint and restoration forum on steel soldiers. Also you can get Behr paint codes in that same forum where the colors match up well. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/paint-information-codes-and-sources.116608/

Congrats!

Cheaper to just buy a correct car hauler trailer

What can we use as an alternative to the expensive military tire lubricant that we must use with runflats. We need something that will not penetrate the rubber but will provide adequate lubrication.

Springer, you’re still running a three speed? Or is that an old picture?

The tachometers are roughly $100. You can take a piece of flat steel and bend it as shown in the picture that you provided, or I took an old soup can and painted it army green and it looks like something out of a World War II vehicle. Unless you are going for a 100% realistic military look...

Sell your truck and or trade for a Plan B IMHO... Or let Steve RWH build one for you. https://www.planbtrucks.com/armored-humvee

Coug, the military crap might be 220 per tire, but is there a civilian lubricant equivalent for less? Would not be the first time a military spec item cost 10x more than an off the shelf product. Anyone remember the rumored $150,000 toilet seat?

Plan B Trucks sells units meant for bullet resistance and such. Probably cheaper to buy from them that build yourself.

In the rain these trucks leak like a sieve. Gasoline was a fluid the last time I checked.

The video that showed installation of the runflat omitted one extremely important point. One should never run runflats without oil otherwise you will get a tire fire due to friction forces if you get a flat. I do not know the type of oil that is supposed to be added to the tire however I am...

Wow. Thank you!

Nice work CamO
