    The City of Sanford Events Coordinator just called me. She is very appreciative of our participation. She sent me this link. The pictures of Steel Soldiers are at the 4:44 minute mark. :-D https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ruzBfc69FkY

    M1009 Heavy Maintenance Visit

    Welcome to the Green Iron Laughing Academy! :jumpin::cookoo:[thumbzup] You have joined a prestigious (in my opinion) community of fellow OD addicts. You've already contracted a serious case of OD Fever, and I regret to say that there is no cure and no 12 step program. There is no end to how...

    Who makes the best steering stabilizer ????

    I believe it is the same stabilizer. If you want to make sure, call your local auto parts store and give them the part number I referenced. Find out which trucks that part fits.

    First CUCV purchase. What should I look for?

    First off, welcome to the Green Iron Laughing Academy! :mrgreen::jumpin::cookoo: Be patient. The right truck will come along. A little story - I always wanted a Crown Victoria P71 Police Interceptor. I spent over a year searching for one. I searched a 100 mi radius from my house. I test...

    Who makes the best steering stabilizer ????

    My M1009 is a daily driver. I installed a Rancho stabilizer on my M1009. The part number is on my thread: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?125140-M1009-Tie-Rod-End-Replacement-Project&highlight= The steering is so much more crisp and responsive with the new components. While you're...

    151 stuck

    Lindsay - you have your hands full! She is VERY intelligent, and she LOVES green iron! :-) I'm just as proud of you as I am of her! Not too many people know how to start a M151A2, let alone drive a stick with no synchro's on first and reverse. Have you thought about letting her drive the MUTT...

    Mainsail - The KC lights come with a complete wiring harness, relay, switch, and zip ties. The wire off of the back of the lights are inside a protective sleeve. One ground wire is on the wiring harness near the relay plug. The other ground wire is near the light switch that you mount in the...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    I installed a hood insulation blanket. I bought a 4'x6' piece off of Jeg's for $36. I bought the clips off of Flea-Bay for less than $6. I used a utility knife and a pair of scissors to make holes in the blanket to attach the clips. I used A/C foil tape across the front of the hood to secure the...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    I installed a set of KC HiLites 851 HID Driving Lights. I built brackets out of 1/8" x 2" wide bar stock. I didn't want to drill any holes, so I sandwiched the horizontal bar between two plates. I painted the brackets with primer and ultra flat black. I used all stainless hardware. The washers...

    M1009 Tie Rod End Replacement Project

    I replaced all of the parts yesterday. It took a lot less time and effort than I originally anticipated. I didn't need any ball joint removal tools - just a hammer and a few sockets.

    M1009 Tie Rod End Replacement Project

    On Sunday 6/1, I took my M1009 to a shop to get the front end aligned. The technicians used every tool in their arsenal to break the passenger side tie rod adjuster loose – a 2 foot long crescent wrench with a 4 foot breaker bar, a torch, and a 16 lb sledge hammer. Their efforts achieved...

    Central Florida Events Mailing List

    That's cool, man. I know how difficult it is to organize events - I've spent the better part of 10 years doing so. I just didn't want anyone to miss out on the opportunity to have a great time due to the information on the event being buried in an unrelated thread! :-)

    Central Florida Events Mailing List

    I'm thankful y'all are having an event down in Homestead. :-) Have you created a separate thread to keep track of who is attending and invite others to join you? This thread is about events in the Central Florida area. Homestead is a LONG drive from Orlando.
