Nice work. I might have used a torch to warm the unit PRIOR to straightening in the arbor press. Still, terrific result.

You should hook up with Juan Prado

I hope you rounded the plywood corners and routered the edges to keep the top from tearing.

"excepting Alice..."

With all due respect: Just because it was built that way does not mean that it is not a problem. It is well known in all 24 Volt vehicles with batteries in series have overcharging issues with the upstream and undercharging issues in the downstream battery, and swapping them back and forth...

There is a quick way and there is a better way and there is the solargiser way. The quick way is to use a 24 Volt charger (when your vehicle is dead at the side of the road), but then the upstream battery risks overcharging and the downstream battery risks undercharging. You need to swap the...

I bought mine on the great Fleapay auction site... In anticipation of the tranny swap this Spring.

Don't care if they do Bugottis, make sure they don't "Foxtrot" up the CV cable!!! Easy to screw up if you don't know 1980's GM well

Check grounds but also DRIVE WITH DOORS CLOSED.

Does the 2wd afford any benefits or is it just there? I posted about this and then decided against. Curious. T

There is a post somewhere in the last 2 months where someone said they cracked the programming necessary for a stand-alone 4 speed controller. Not sure of the computer unit he used BUT he seemed super psyched. When I asked what he needed and installed re.: tranny parts and such, he told me it...

I have a PCB thread I'm about to update. It is an FYI. People are free to post but they don't need to. Juan Prado has a thread following his journeys and trials and tribulations with his M998 soft top in LA. Same thing. I think your vehicle is pretty awesome, but if I have nothing to add I...

1) Do you have a link? 2) Can you or your wife help educate my wife as to how to help? At least explain the concept? Perhaps pics with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each.

Is it just me or do these 2 posts from opposite ends of the country from 2 weeks apart seem similar? Refer to post/thread ; https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?185132-M998-upgrade&p=2194666#post2194666 I read lots of posts having nothing to do with me just to learn. Just sayin'.

An H1 is an H1 and a M998 is a M998. Things like towing capacity, rollover strength and braking don't necessarily carry over. Keep the F350, or purchase a LMTV.

Drain that tank baby. Get rid of that crud.

Agree with Milcommoguy re.7 year old battery, BUT I'm super impressed with your battery restoration! There are threads talking about buying 2 generic 24F batteries that will fit well and do the trick. There are 2 flavors and you need to buy a top that fits (meaning there are 2 shapes to the top...

Plenty for everyone. Let me know who wants butter.

Understood, and in retrospect...agreed.

Because Friday is Tin Foil Hat Day? [Why in reference to what IGM?]
