    I am pretty sure Vintage Power Wagins has the bumpers and all the other parts you need to fix you winch He has the bumpers, the frame extensions, the gussets, the brackets the whole thing. You can ask him to give you a list of everything you need.

    You should check the pictures on this site. You should be able to get some good pictures of a correct winch. Unfortunately I have an M37B1, an M43 and an R2 all with winches but I don't have any good pictures on this site.

    I know the marines did some crazy things. I saw some of the equipment they had in Vietnam. I don't think these changes were done by the corps.

    Welcome to the disease. First off the tires are available in several tire companies even the big names like Firestone.

    R2 Justrite Electric Lantern quwstion

    In restoring my R2 I found a NOS Justrite lantern. I came with a couple of wires. It doesn't have a battery and almost looks like it would use that large square battery that is used in modern lanterns but it doesn't seem to have the contacts. If anyone has the instructions or can tell me how you...
