    Operation "URGENT RESTORATION"

    Looking great! I'm right there with you. I bled the cylinders and I'm going to postpone putting the hub's on for a couple days to check for leaks. I'd rather see leaks without putting the hub's on so save on cleaning. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    rear goat covers

    Well, looks this "order" is dead. Only two interested guys want covers. Definitely wouldn't meet the minimum order. I told Pam not to send the samples. I'm going to find the grommets and sew my own cover together.

    Gama Goats

    Welcome aboard. I don't have time for a project either. I just tinker two hours here and two hours there. Eventually, I'll have her completed. Just like everything done right...it takes time;-).

    Working On The M561 Gama Goat

    Ahh, one of my favorite threads comes to a close. You were one of my inspirations to get one of these unique trucks. I guess all good things must come to a close. Best of luck on your next adventure. I'm looking forward to seeing what it may be;-)

    M561 M792 Modification Work Order (MWO)'s

    Is there a manual or publication out there going over the MWO's for the Gama Goat? So far I have only found one: Modification Work Order 9-2320-242-35- Driver/Passenger Seatbelts Anyone have the listings of the other? Or have a MWO data plate on your dash stating the numerical MWO code?

    WSUCougarx's M561 Gama Goat Acquisition and Build Thread

    Wheel Cylinder Removal I know there is a very limited number of Gama Goat owners. Most of which are mechanically inclined. However, just in case you need an easy way to get that wheel cylinder out without taking everything apart, here you go. Simply remove one retaining clip and one spring...

    Operation "URGENT RESTORATION"

    Any chance you can post some pics of the original bow with measurements? I'm going to have to make some bows. However mine will need to be at the same heigth level as the cab so she can fit in the garage.

    rear goat covers

    Looks like we won't be able to make the 10 cover minimum. I too am thinking about making my own as well. I've got pics and NOS end curtains en route. I've got a brand new tent piece in the back of one of my trailers for material. When are you planning on making your cover made? Maybe we could...

    rear goat covers

    Just wondering. With two Goats sold, who's still interested in buying a cover? Haven't seen a response in here. Please advise.

    USGI Life Preserver Vests Being that I'm in the process of rebuilding this amphibious vehicle, I thought it would only be appropriate to outfit her with life preservers. I really don't have plans to swim her on a recreational basis. However, should the need arrive to swim her (and I hope she...

    Sealed Drum Maintenance Today I decided to break open the sealed drum to see what kind of goodies I had in there. I've been a bit apprehensive about this project. My first thoughts were this was a sealed drum. So if the military or US Forest Service swam this thing, then whatever got in there...

    rear goat covers

    Heard back from Pam today. Apparently they don't have the "correct" fabric in stock to make them to MIL SPEC. She states she has alternatives but there is a slight difference in the shade of green. She said the color codes they do have are federal standard colors 24087 and 34094...

    Brake Tubes & Flareless Ferrules and Nuts My local hydraulic shop indeed came through for me today. They overnighted 12 #4 Flareless Ferrules and Nuts (specific for steel tubes). I paid $1.04/ferrule and $1.96/Nut. I could have gotten on a popular E*** site but knowing these particular...

    rear goat covers

    Anyone know what mil-prf-2069f is? Is the duck canvas type stuff or the modernized rubberized stuff? I guess I can wait for the pic tomorrow. She's offered a sample of the material that they'll make it out of. Again, will advise when I get it.
