Hello from Down East Maine, nice rig.

I have done a few by myself, if you are working on dirt use a sheet of plywood, makes moving the jack easier. I always remove the transfer case first, not so much weight to juggle. Be sure to support the back of the engine as well. I'm sure others will chime in with some tips.

Lots of measuring and it is installed, the wire around the lever is a safety catch included in the hardware kit, prevents the pto lever from being engaged by accident. Next project is ready to go.

After a long time searching the final missing parts for the winch install arrived today. Now to get busy cutting a slot in the center console.

I would think before you put the glass in the channel you could carefully squeeze it tighter making the channel narrower so just the rubber will hold it.

Thank you papabear/patracy for taking the time to administer the poll. Would also like to thank all the Steel Soldiers members who have supported the project as without them I could not have completed it. Mkcoen, was my inspiration for finding and restoring one and without him I would not have...

Hello from the frozen North.

Look forward to seeing your M274.

Yes, it has the surge brake, that's about all I carry in my trailer is camping gear. The M1009 has stock suspension, tires etc. Glad I could help, I thought a picture would be worth the effort so you could see my results. Also since you are new to the sight and might not know, if you click on...

I had the same issue with my M1009/trailer so I went the low profile tire route and stayed with the original rims. I braved the Maine cold at lunch time and hooked up to the trailer so you could see how level it is. It tows just fine, just don't go crazy with the weight in the trailer and you...

Thank you for your service Bill, welcome aboard, look forward to seeing your first WWII MV.

I just had a similar problem with my M1009, headed home from work and when I let off the fuel she down shifted and would not shift out of first. Checked all the usual suspects and they checked out, turned out to be the nylon gear on the end of the governor was worn off. It's just 4 bolts and...

Thank you Steel Soldiers for the support, very much appreciated. This Gama Goat was de milled, rather cruelly by Uncle Sam in the early 90's, purchased and left for dead in the woods for 14 years before I rescued it. I think most people would have passed or perhaps thought of it as a parts...

Not only the hobby but my paycheck, still have to report to work but no pay if they don't resolve the issue.

Looks cool but in the real world the performance is crap, look at the SWR and gain, these wide band antennas are always a compromise.

Thanks to all the SS members who have supported my truck in the past and the current support and a special thanks to all the REFORGER/Cold War Vets. A nice group of trucks from the past year for sure. The Goat is still a work in progress, wearing a winch on the front now and tucked in for the...

They are still in business email is very slow a call is necessary.

Good job Phil, another fine MV from the MVMVC club in the North East.

Don't mess around with after market thermostats, from the parts stores, china junk. I just went through the same issues, get a real one made from all metal. A guy on ebay is selling original new USGI thermostats, just type that part number in the search and it will pop up, he is from NY, good...

OK thanks, looking for info to try and find that silver plug so I can make a power cable.
