That may explain the hockey puck, broken mouth guard, a bunch of teeth and a picture of a guy with a mullet that I found in it! Pete

I have continued to take the Jeep apart. I have discovered the frame to be scale and rust free. Bottom of body is clean too. These things are very simple machines. Pete

First time posting. Have not researched what year it is. There is indications painted on the side-old failing paint, that it was in Viet Nam. I appreciate the help and tips on the Mule. I plan on getting her to run and clean it up to original. I plan on using it on my farm-mostly for fun. Pete

I like that. They look great with narrow tires and canvas seats. That CJ5 is hot. Pete

I am rebuilding it now. Installing the venerable AMC 258 with a 4 speed and Dana 300 transfer case. Maybe paint it olive drab and put my dad's First Cav sticker on it. Pete

It was a fire fighting rig with two 1 1/2" hoses on it. There was the remains of a pump on the front-the type found on brush trucks. Electricals are 12 volt. Seats have canvas bottoms. Mileage shows about 15K. Zero rust with frame looking near perfect. The master cylinder is leaking which has...

Picked this up last year out of Sparta. I have begun to rebuild it. Question-what does CF6390 stand for? The old fella is my wives uncle from Queens. He helped me recover the jeep out of Sparta. Pete

Thanks for posting. This encourages me with my Mule. The deck on yours looks to be in great shape. Pete

Thank you for the heads up. I would have not known about the key difference. Post pictures of your installed engine if able. Pete

Thanks for posting. She looks to be in very good condition. The tub looks great. Pete

Price was right-he had just dropped it due to no takers. Got to love craigslist. Will post when I start rebuilding the Mule. Pete

Finally found a local Mule (Genny) motor for my mule. Current engine is good for killing bugs with a ton of smoke. Finally found a local engine through Craigslist. Motor was across town which made it a snap. Got the crate into my shop and opened it up to see if good or bad. She looks good...

If my work schedule allows, I will be going. I plan on driving my A3. I am out of the St Paul area. Pete

Tucker was way ahead of his time. Thanks for posting this. Pete

The MK48 is a strange beast when backing up. Given its articulation, the rear of the vehicle goes out of sight quickly. Perhaps thats why the big brackets. They do stick way out. I have broken the small spotter mirror because it sticks so far out and hangs up on everything. Pete

I had a similar problem. Mine was inside the solenoid. There is a large copper washer-disc. The surface can get pretty rough and inhibit the starter from starting. I took mine apart and found mine to be very rough. I flipped it over to the fresh backside. Put it back together and installed in...

We have recently learned that. DMV was supposed to have bridged that when we registered the truck. The point I was trying to make is the paperwork and the method of that paperwork. It's a veiled tax. Makes me wonder how many folks sit at the DMV and do the paperwork vs pay for them to do it. We...

My two cents here. Those receiving a check from American taxpayers by proxy (city, county, state, Fed job) have been turned into revenue generators. Best to follow the speed limit and every other rule of the road, and you will avoid this "tax". My business bought a new 1 ton Silverado that has a...

My A3 developed a sticking brake pedal. I can use my foot to pull it back. Just started to do this before parking her for the season. Have a hunch that the cause is corrosion. Pete
