So, I forgot to create this one when I created the rally thread and the rally buy-sell-trade thread. We've worked for a long time to get the rally streamlined and I think at this point, we're pretty efficient. This is what we need: Registration tent: People with people skills, diplomacy...

This year will be very similar to last year’s event, obviously the date is 2018 specific. So if you’ve been in the last few years, you probably know what you need to know. We'd also like to take this opportunity to thank our 2018 sponsor, Memphis Equipment, for their assistance. Without them...

So they WWII halftrack takes two different axle nuts, serviced by one 2-sized socket. The front one, you can't use a modern civvy one because the axle stub sticks out too far. The socket bottoms out before you get onto the nut. Is there a way around this? Do one of you have an original...

I need a button for the parking brake handle. There's a threaded rod, looks to be a 1/4" course thread. The button screws on to the top of that and you push down on it with your thumb when you want to release the brake. All this one has is a nut. I called Gary Hebding, who is the king of...

Is there an M38 / M38A1 civyy cross reference sheet out there on the web like the excellent one we have for the deuce? I have a bunch of customers with Jeeps and I'd like to be able to buy stuff like wheel cylinders from Napa when possible. And although I'm looking for an overall sheet with...

So everyone knows the repro 24V coils for the waterproof distributors suck. Very bad reputation. To the point that people are starting to look for good originals when theirs dies. Apparently the distributor caps are the same way. I have a customer's M38 right now and he has 2 new Newstar...

So I think most everyone who deals with the 24V L and F head engines knows the reputation of the repro coils (easily identified due to their chrome exterior plating) to be just awful. I have a customer with a dead coil in an M38A1. I hate to sell him one of these awful chrome coils only to...

Ok folks, sorry this took so long. I like to try and put these threads out about 6 months before the event, but it just didn't happen this year. Also, yes, I will pressure our videographer to finish editing all the 2016 footage. He does this for free and it's hard for me to really lean on him...

I got my Mule from Maccus in 2008. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?21797-1800-miles-in-47-hrs-for-an-M274 When Maccus did the restoration, repro fuel tanks weren't available. And the tank, like pretty much all Mule fuel tanks, was dented. So Maccus made an outside cover to give...

I am in the process of trying to manufacture the hardest part of the dual circuit conversion: the master cylinder/ pedal assy. mount. If I can bring this to market and find a master cylinder, then peope can add their own 2nd airpack, bend some brake lines and have a factory designed and tested...

I shall walk forth in the dark valley of servers and hosts, fearing no cloud crashes or dropped packets. I shall not be fearful of web hosts that can't get their acts in gear.

I know that Patracy has very little control over TT, so I know this isn't probably isn't an issue on our end.................... but I am having an issue where when I look at threads on TT, I see the posts, but they're blank. No words or images. If I swipe down, the text "flashes" and then...

So this is a pretty big deal………………. This announcement marks a big anniversary…………….. 10 years of the Ga. Rally. How many of you can believe we've done this for 10 years? In 2006, the HMV hobby was growing fast. The govt. was surplussing a lot of M35A2s and CUCVs and this allowed a lot of...

I went to the Ga. MVPA monthly meeting today and we (SS) were invited to their fall rally. They're having their rally in conjunction with the Southern CJ Jeep sales group's fall rally. It's this coming Saturday and it's a one day event. You can see the event on their Facebook page here...

I want to buy a voltmeter that looks identical to the standard M-series 24V unit, but that is for 12V applications. Does such a thing exist?
