Enjoyed every second. Thanks for taking the time to post this.

Welcome to the madness. For titling and insurance information, try the stickies at the top of the forums and/or use the website search engine to look for such info. There's more than a handful of FMV owners in Ohio, I'm sure one of them can help you. Norm

Sure thing: This was both easier AND harder than I thought it would be. I replaced my 218 TC with an NP242 and thought the TC Lock light was a good idea. Lamps are relatively cheap - I think it was around $15 - I bought spools of the prestolite wire and connectors through Eriks Military...

Dein Englisch ist nicht nur gut genug bei uns, es is auch SAU gut (ein Bayerische Redewendung die ich im Augsburg gelernt weil ich war drei Jahren bei der Armee da). Ein Herzlich Willkommen auch! I knew a guy when I was in Augsburg who sold a 1957 Thunderbird to someone he met at a rest stop...

Got front differential drain plug out. MAPP gas torch and TIGHTENED it just a hair; backed out easily then. So all fluids and assemblies finally drained, filled, tested. Going to try and get more backroad time this coming week. Meanwhile, installed a transfer case LOCK light. Used 16...

You COULD weld a bolt to it - one that's already through a steering wheel puller, then just pull the thing out. You - ovbiously - can't DRILL. Curious how this works out, I've thought of doing the same down the road. I bought one of those magnetic pan heaters - 100 watts - this past winter...

Got around to draining/filling the geared hubs today. Pretty straightforward job. Had bought a bag of nuts from AMTAK months back, using a 5/8-18 - I forget, wife thought it was 16, I couldn't find a magnifying glass - but I did find the die to chase the threads and I did this on every...

I chose those pressures based on skimming through, oh, I don't know, maybe ten or twelve THOUSAND threads on "what should my tire pressure be?" I can read the manual. Matter of fact TM 9-2320-280-10 happens to be open to page 2-87 right beside me as I type this. Information is very clear...

I've been in San Antone in January - those ice storms had me missing the preceding 110F in the shade summer. Houston's just a ways down the road. Just a suggestion, comb out the fins on the cooling stack. I bought one of the gadgets through amazon, played around with it, haven't given the...

Took the beast to the range today with a couple of 1911 pistols (DGFM, SIG 1911F Scorpion) and a Pre-model 17 revolver (1947) for a break from work, working on the truck, take advantage of the weather (mid seventies when I left, around 80 on the way home), nice back road kind of 17 mile trip...

Went for a ride today - outside air temp was around 80 - 15 miles, engine temp didn't go over 195. No fan. Last time it went on was back in October when I picked it up. Unusually warm that day - 90+ - and highway speeds, fan cycled at the end of the trip.

Welcome to the madness. Have fun. Keep us posted (pictures) when you can. Norm

That, is, beautiful.

Wow. If he lets them trickle into the market a few at a time he could easily, quickly sell them for $150 or more (best price I've seen in a while was about $187). Nice profit margin. Matzel tov. NB

I don't know much about alignment, but those numbers look pretty low, what did the technician say?

Hey, thanks for your honest assessment of those windows. I've had a set of those doors earmarked/saved on ePay for some time but wasn't comfortable with the window design. Back to looking for a good/used set of X-doors I won't have to sell plasma to afford. Fans. Fans are good. 8)

There's a LOT going on behind that "dashboard". Pull the instrument cluster out a few inches (all you can do without releasing the speedometer cable) and get a look inside. There's a THICK (like 2") bundle of wiring behind and above the steering column. I replaced my column as the bracket was...

I actually saw a HMMWV here in Maryland a year or so ago that had a piece of 2x10 bolted to the front end for a bumper. Didn't see the rear, but I imagine it had the same or an airlift bumper. Probably from PA, no need for those here. Yet.:!:

Welcome from Maryland. Post pictures if you got 'em. Norm
