Soni
Soni went through it and installed a 24v/12v block with the civ dist and coil. He also installed an Edelbrock 1406 but I am having some trouble with it. The electric choke is not hooked up so the machine is really cold natured.
After it warms up it runs very well. The vac advance...
modify the EET
OK folks what do you think. I have the only (that I know of) Holden EET in private hands. It was designed to haul a case backhoe and the rear tires fit in between the wheel wells. The 474 is tracked and the wheels wells kill the usable space of the deck. I am thinking about...
Nothing
Nothing.... it hit the EET. It has 1/2" corners! What a beast. It is an 11,000# trailer rated to haul 20,000#!!! But that is 20,000# off road rating and anywhere the MTVR will go!

well...
well... it was not a tree. My cousin hit the corner of the EET trailer when he was rounding the shop in the 474 to load it for the parade. A little forensic investigation turned up some tan paint and fresh scrapes on the rear corner of the trailer and suspicious track marks in the...
tree damage
Well it happened sooner than I thought. I guess a tree on one of the driving trails peeled the light skin back on the right rear quarter panel. I noticed it tonight when it was being loaded for a parade this weekend. It is not a big area (maybe 3"x10") but it is bad enough...
toys
I have red azz sales about once per year when things get too cluttered around here... you never know. :beer:
I am currently drawing down to just a few toys:
1. The bobbed M925 with the holden EET trailer for this machine
2. This machine with 2 modular inserts (20mm cannon/turret &...
play time
We got RAIN in South Texas the day we fixed the machine. No rain for months then the same day the track is on-line it rains... grab some Gortex.
I was surprised at how the tracks caked the gumbo. There were several small tallow trees stuck in the rear fender.

pics
OK folks. I found my camera so here are some pics. There will be several but I will group them. The first one is the "leaking" adjuster. The next group is play time on the farm and the third is the fire.

track adjustment
I have misplaced my camera so this will be w/o pics for the time being. I used a grease gun to adjust the tracks on my XM474. They adjusted as they should as I pumped grease into the zerk fitting. When I was about to stop pumping a stream of grease began to squirt out of a...
76mm
3.3 - Do you have his contact info? I also have a live 76mm in a turret. It may save him some time.
Cannon - give me a call tomorrow. What side of H-town is your shop on?
