Ow yes, I will refer to the manual tonight.it took me a second to figure out what “RTFM”
meant…LOL
Something like you, except I didn't think all that much of them when I was in. When I was in, the M998 was just coming out and replacing the old jeeps.Wow okay, I'll take a two door please. Thank you.

Yep a truck like that, you have a beautiful truck. That's what I'm looking for. I just dont have the upfront cash to swap to a 12V. Don't get me wrong I like a 6.2 TH400, in a highway geared 2WD Chevy. They struggle in a CUCV and live a short tortured life in a HMMWV. But it is as simple as they come. Just as Uncle Sam intended.Something like you, except I didn't think all that much of them when I was in. When I was in, the M998 was just coming out and replacing the old jeeps.
6.2 gutless turd and 3spd with no park.
And now that I have mine, it's one of my favorite vehicles. I've driven this one everywhere :AZ, KS, FL, WI, WY, IL, TN, MS, AL, GA, and everywhere in between.
Mostly it goes to the end of the road to fetch fuel for the tractor and take us out to lunch.
I actually figured it out right away, and it made me laugh pretty hard.it took me a second to figure out what “RTFM”

I know of a few, but any and all information with regards to tag, title, and registration would be helpful. I live 45m north north east or Raleigh.11DG, not sure where you are at in NC, but if near the central part of the state we should roll over to one of the cars and coffee events when you get up and rolling. The one in Morrisville is getting massive and somebody is always showing up with some military vehicles as well. Also, again if you are in central NC, I can mention which DMVs and inspection stations are easier to work with. Some in Raleigh can give more friction than they are legally allowed to do.
Was there play in the bearing itself or the rubber around the outside of the metal bearing? Thats also called a "carrier" bearing in most places. I also have to go and move my chair into the corner and make sure the coffee is warmed up. I have a feeling I'll be spending some time there!Hello again everybody. I'm confused and need help. I have found that the front propeller shaft bearing, has a wore bushing. Figured it would make a fun staycation project, nope. how in world do you get that bearing off the shaft? There's a metal ring that's less then the diameter of the splines. I don't even know how they got it on in the first place. I've checked the TM's and can't find any thing. It's referenced a few times but doesn't appear to say how it comes off. The TM's give the impression that the bearing is replaced along with the shaft.
Unless you had a vibration from it , it's probably still good. It's not uncommon for them to have movement from the rubber bushing. You should see what one of these look like in a class 8 truck. Think dinner plate.The bushing is worn. I had just realized the metal ring is the step up to the bearing. The vise, wood block and hammer combo isn't working. So It's going to work with me tomorrow, big red press time.
Disconnect the ign. (sense) lead (wire tag 5A) unless you have the batteries disconnected the others should not be a problem.I could have bent it but couldn't be bothered. Call me strange.
But it doesn't matter, I pulled the truck out of the garage. Noticed smock coming from under the hood. My regulator was on fire. Now the truck is sitting in the yard and I don't know how I'm going to get it back in with out driving it. It just happened and iv got to take a load to the dump so I'll be back in a bit. I'm sure I could just disconnect power but don't know which cable that is yet. Super bummed out, I haven't driven my truck in over a month and now this. Up dates later I assume.View attachment 915078
