    Operation "URGENT RESTORATION"

    Thanks, I checked the rear window on my hard top and it is cracked right down the center. Of all the glass on it the one you needed is broken of course. It's just 1/4" safety glass, any auto glass shop can make and install one quite easily. I am not going to use the top so if you need any...

    Tire Wear/Electrical

    I have not bought any new tires, I was just stating how much they cost.

    Retrofitting Antennas

    No need to retro, the military made antennas in most if not all the ham bands.

    Operation "URGENT RESTORATION"

    Today after work I installed the rear steering box and pintle hitch. I finished the top bows and am only missing one rod for it to be complete. The decal for the dash panel arrived today so that is finished. I have the tow bar feet I needed to hook the towbar to the goat so my next project is...

    Tire Wear/Electrical

    It has a diesel engine, there are no plugs/wires. They did offer a 100 amp alternator kit, a larger alternator, regulator and wiring harness. I don't know what your disabilities are but they are hard to get into, there are no doors. I would consider new tires driving that distance, they run...

    Gama gama hey!

    Bill, we are going to have to send a recon patrol to your place for those pictures. Break out that digital camera and get busy. Find a kid on the street and have him help you.

    Operation "URGENT RESTORATION"

    Yes, it's a 18" wheel. There is a seller on the big "E" that has 2 or 3 NOS original style wheels at a good price. All they are is standard 5 ton 18" steering wheels.

    Gama gama hey!

    Looks great, I have a rear window but I will have to check to make sure it's not broken, I recall one of the pieces on the top were broken.

    My first Deuce.

    I would start with the main light switch, they have an internal circuit breaker that may be bad. Also check the harness connector to make sure you have power to the switch.

    Operation "URGENT RESTORATION"

    Last couple of days I have been working on the steering system. I soaked the carrier steering access cover for a week or so and it would not budge. I knew if I tried to turn it too hard the 3/4 hub would split. So I had no choice but to take all the screws out, I figured I was in for a day of...

    M561 Gama Goats

    They made two different styles of engine covers, the squared style is aluminum and the rounded style is stamped steel. The steel type is reported to be the later issue but I can't confirm that.

    M561 Gama Goats

    Wow, they sure did melt. Good luck with your project, look forward to seeing more pictures as you progress. If you end up with extra parts I'm sure some of us goat owners, including myself would be glad to purchase them to help fund the "keeper".

    Thanks for posting, we need some good advice from a veteran goat owner/mechanic.

    Operation "URGENT RESTORATION"

    More parts progress, blackout taillights, instrument spacer and wiper motors. The spacer was a challenge as it was in the path of the crunch monster.

    Connie the Chevy powered goat.

    There have been 2 for sale on the big E for several months, 5500-7500 with no bids, running original no spares near you. I don't know how you would value a re-power, have never seen one for sale. Plenty of us including me would be interested in the spares but that doesn't sound like an option...
