Finally got to raptor liner the truck floor. When to install a Stock Steering Column Gasket & it did not fit right & was worried about it falling apart when it gets wet. So I decided to custom make my own. Fired up the laser cutter and auto cad & made one out of PETG white plastic. Works great no more cold breeze from the steering column.

Are you doing something similar for the pedals and shifters?
Alan....you do good work. It takes a lot to keep up a harem like you have.I changed the oil & filters of the '85 Deuce that is now running again. The filters that came on the truck were the Hastings filters(I replaced with NAPA Gold 1134 filters) that the military uses & didn't really look that bad, but I have no idea when the oil was last changed & the rubber filter gaskets were cut down the middle making two half size gaskets out of one, some mechanic has a poorly calibrated torque wrench. Nothing solid came out of the oil pan, so that is a plus. Now on the drivetrain & the brake system.
Well, that's still over 500 miles per year! They do like to be taken out for exercise once in a while. What's an UOS gearbox?I installed my new tachometer cable and UOS gearbox on my bobbed truck. It's been almost 2 years but she still starts right up. I also replaced the 5 ton parking brake cable with one for a 2.5 ton! Only 10700 miles on the truck that I've had for 21 years.
I just got my Mr gasket shifter cover today. Only $20View attachment 760811View attachment 760812View attachment 760813 Mrmag, toby is right. Here are some pics of transmission and transfer case shifters with canvas shift covers from JATONKA. I have a pair on my Deuce and they really control the amount of cold or hot air entering the cab. You can purchase these from JATONKA, they are priced right, easy to install, and made in the USA. John is also a Steel Soldiers member.
