We had nine vehicles in the lineup. :-) I'm really thankful for everyone that participated.

That Polaris Ranger looks SWEET!!! :jumpin::driver: :-D 8-) You can use that bugger in parades! :-)

Dang, dude! :shock: Are you ok?

I'm sorry. My post didn't address the root cause. I think the thick battery cable that attaches to the starter has come loose, and is the reason you saw sparks. Over time, that sucker loosens up, and can cause intermittent starting issues - weak starts or no starts. A couple more gems of...

Remove the starter. It's a big pain, but doable with the passenger side jacked up like Rich suggested. I've replaced the starter on my M1009 so many times I got it down to 30 minutes including finding the right sized wrenches and sockets. I never pulled the driveshaft. Anyway, you'll have a...

The re-manufactured steering box is bolted in, oiled, aligned, and tight.

I had a little problem with the new steering box. The box mount was bent. The bracket on the right at the bottom was bent. I couldn't get enough dent out so had to rob the old one. Never a dull moment.

From Doc: Glad that I'm taking the hubs apart. The first photo shows passenger side hub with a "dot" on the end of the bolt. The lock piece is missing on the bearing castle nut at slot at 9 o'clock. Bolt is the recalled bolt. The second drivers side photo shows the new bolt with the "X" stamped...

Doc pulled apart the front hub.

Unfortunately, I received notification of another person that can't make it due to mechanical trouble. That frees up even more room in our lineup. I'll accept last minute RSVPs if you want to participate.

I understand your PM now, Steve. I had two Deuces drop out of the Orlando Parade. That frees up 56 linear feet in our entry. There's plenty of room in our lineup for your A3 and trailer. :-)

I now have TWO openings in the parade lineup. Please let me know ASAP if you'd like to participate. Thank you.

Sorry you can't make it, Johny5. :-(

The replacement steering column and box cost me $170. The steering wheel cost me $360. aua

Submitting the entry for this parade takes A LOT of work. I must provide a paragraph describing what Steel Soldiers is and what we represent. I was required to provide details on each vehicle that is taking part of the parade. I had to list the vehicle make, model, the length and width of each...

Doc sent me this picture today. The end of the replacement column is on the left, and the horribly butchered one is on the right.

One of the people that RSVP'd for the parade cannot make it due to a commitment at work. That frees up a 25 foot long space in the lineup. If anyone is interested in joining us in the parade, please let me know ASAP. Thank you.

Here is the parade route. http://www.cityoforlando.net/veteransparade/

WE WILL MEET AT THE CHICK FIL A PARKING LOT AT 9 am. WE WILL DEPART AT 9:30 am. I received the information packet from the City of Orlando. Here are the details. As with last year, adherence to the US Flag Code (Public Law 94-344) is mandatory. EDIT: I attached a copy of the law. We are...
