    I have joined the Goat herd

    Picture from the manual, my T is different but same idea. The manual picture shows the air box heater line as the air brake tube which is not correct, they show the air line coming out the top of the T but it really goes no where in the picture when it should go down next to the drain line...

    I have joined the Goat herd

    I used a outboard motor fuel line with an inline priming bulb, she fired first crank. Good news on the oil pressure, I'd rather have oil than fuel first.

    I have joined the Goat herd

    I will have to look when I get home, however that clear tube coming down is different on mine, mine is a braided line that goes to the air pump. Where that allen plug is on mine it has a street T , the bottom of the T has a straight line going down for the air box drain, on the right of the T...

    No power to lights ? Gamma goat

    The tail lights ground through the body of the light itself, make sure the light mounting bolts have a tooth washer under the head to make a good ground. Also make sure the ground jumper between the carrier and tractor is clean/tight. For grounds around the dash area it looks like carrier...

    No power to lights ? Gamma goat

    Wire #15 feeds power to the light switch pin "F" from a 15A circuit breaker located behind the passenger side panel. The headlights ground on one of the screws that attach the body wiring connector at each front side under the splash shield. Make sure those grounds are clean and check the...

    Horn question gamma goat

    Both wires at the horn are marked 25, it doesn't matter which way they are plugged into the horn. One is your 24v power going to the circuit breaker panel, the other is ground going to the horn button. Pressing the horn button completes the ground circuit. The horn itself does not need to be...

    Goat Project

    Quarkz has led in the front. See what type of flasher box you have, mechanical or solid state. If it's mechanical it's probably toast, I updated to the solid state. The conversion instructions are in the -20 TM. I rebuilt all my lights, Saturn Surplus had all the parts.

    Operation "URGENT RESTORATION"

    As much as I wanted to use the original batteries I just did not have the $400+ to shell out for 6tl's so I used a pair of surplus UPS batteries I had. I set them on the original tray and held them in place with a rubber bungee. I have the original hold down parts, some day I will put the...

    Dodge M880 troop seats

    CUCV on the left, different(shorter over wheel well) lengths, uses pin/clip to attach. On right M880 uses stud/nut to attach.

    Big Thanks to dmetalmiki

    Dave came to the rescue for me when I needed some help from the UK. His attention to detail and timeliness was amazing, could not ask for a better friend, thanks Dave:grin:.

    Dodge M880 troop seats

    The brackets that attach the troop seats to the bed are different, I can post pictures later and show them. May be other differences though I am not sure.

    Project time again at Zouts

    Good job, looks like they "civilized" the ignition system, and that spin on filter conversion, first time I have ever seen one on a mil jeep.

    Transmission leak repair costs...

    The seal is cheap, however it is somewhat labor intensive. You would have to disconnect and slide the transmission back far enough to get the torque convertor out to replace the seal. Doing this by myself I would figure a day of work, a shop set up to do it 4-5 hours perhaps. I would think...

    Tom mine looks the same, make sure when you put the cover on that the bottom of that shaft goes in the "fork" in the bottom of the governor.

    Goat 3-53 fuel filter part # needed

    Saturn Surplus, Red River Parts(must have part numbers ready or no go), Arts Parts, SS member popacom has a warehouse full, currently moving them to a new location, TNJ Murray, probably others I'm forgetting. The group has had no luck finding cargo covers.

    Just be glad it happened with the engine out. You can get the solenoid for $30 shipped so don't let the shop rip you off on one if you need it.
