Wallew, I saw those 1" feet on ebay, and those things arnt cheap. The 3/4" feet are a little more afordable. If i ever get a Deuce I will have to bite the bullet or set the CNC mill up and make some.

I assembled everything and now I know what you guys are talking about when you say you have to disassemble the thing to move it.. Its heavy! So paint is next and then its time to fill the yard with trucks.....My wife will be SOOO happy!! I think I will machine a MWO for the other leg, but not...

I didnt have any 1" feet, only HUMMWV feet with 3/4 inch pins. So I made some bushings to adapt the feet to 1". I only plan to tow CUCV's for right now so the 3/4 pins will be strong enough.

The pins were next. Machined up some cold rolled and went to Fastenall and got all the hardware.

I had to cut a 1/4 inch off the one big bar for the MWO bar to slide in the whole way. The horizontal band saw had it done square and quick.

"Got my tow bar working.....But it just dont work on you" (Sing like Muddy Waters.) Actually it will work on all of you now. I was up at Sephirothq's place a couple weeks ago to drop off a wrecker spade and look at his large fleet of trucks. (Good guy and lots of good trucks[thumbzup]). He...

You can just show up and watch without registration.

The battle of the Bulge reenactment at Ft Indiantown Gap is Jan 25th - 30th. World War II Federation Battle of the Bulge Is anybody going? I plow the driveway of a WWII Vet that was in it. I asked him to go a couple times and he says.."I was there, Why in the He11 would I want to go see it...

Nice Mike! We need to move this to the sling bar thread.

Good job. I too thought about doing this ,but I would have to remove my stabilizer leg. Decisions, decisions.

Welcome from Coatesville Ratch. Glad your recovery went well. My first MV was a M101 also, and now I cant stop myself....must have more. Where in Chester County are you?

Dont know, but I'm near there too.

Hmmm, a soda can and duct tape. I will have to remember that one. I had to drive on the front in my 69 Blazer, but that had a bolt on yoke on the 205, not a slip yoke. Good thinking choll, Hopefully you went from looking like a zero, to a Hero in the wifes eyes.:grin:

Rick bought his from BKubu I do believe. Next time I go to Rickyoday's shop i can take some pictures if you like. Is there something specific you want a pic of?

That will work. Did you make any extra adjustable leg assembly's while you were at it?:-P

:ditto: Thats the first place i would look. While your in there, make sure the pinion yoke is not loose. Try to move it in and out.

There is a original style crank up/down landing leg for the M101 too. But it does not have a wheel. I think there is room to add one though. Just a thought incase you want the original look. If you do get the tractor supply type, you could always paint it olive drab. They were added at the unit...

Glad it was that easy to fix! I wish my problems were so easy.

I had a problem similar to this, It was the range fork shifter pads were wore out. It would go into 4H but immediately slide out. 4L worked fine.

Yea, i would find another tranny case or another complete trans. They usually crack at the trans/ transfer case adapter when they get the forklift treatment. Make sure thats not cracked too. aua
