More joy, my rear bearing assembly was not installed correctly, think I will disassemble the whole thing this weekend, drive shaft, center bearing and rear bearing and get that all squared away. While I'm there I think I will disassemble the center bearing housing and inspect/ and re pack the...

This topic got me worried so I started looking mine over, no zerk anywhere, now wondering if I might ought to go ahead and disassemble and grease/pack the bearing

Interested to hear how it works out, we are all in the same tire boat so to say . I have 3 NOS tires that are excellent,plan on putting them on the front, most of the rest that I have go from crap to super crap. I wonder if that place in Salt Lake still has a trailer full of NOS tires?

When I got the truck the sending unit was stuck fast, cleaned it a lot, it ohmed out ok but the arm wouldn't move freely. It sat in diesel in my tank for couple years, I took it out last week, cleaned on it a bit more and presto, it started working, I'd call that an accident, I was just about to...

Will DUKW tires on a goat make it more amphibous?:p

On a better note got my new E brake handle, mine is so rusty it won't adjust, so while they are still available NOS why not.

Well that was a chore and a couple of 4 letter words were spoken but I got it done, now I know why the bolts weren't in there I had to re tap all the threads as well .

And more wiring hackery hopefully the last.

Better view

Sarge, do I really have to put all the bolts back in? It's 1630, 2 ought to hold it

All buttoned up, good oil flow now at idle, and I think I accidentally fixed my original fuel sending unit, seems to be working now.

Anyone here know of a source, or happen to have a driver's side seat frame? After installing the hard top I am no longer able to install the passenger side seat frame.

After installing the pump and getting great oil flow, still had one more bolt at the top that was less than good in the tighten up dept. So I took it all back apart, one more helicoil, tight working space in there but I got it done with the help of my granddaughter running off with my tools.

Thanks Sergeant Major

Finally about ready to put in a new fuel sending unit(that actually works) from reading here seems like the way to go is the M38 jeep sender, looks awful short compared to my original, looking for some advice.

Basically a helicoil allows you to replace the threads in a stripped hole, drill out old threads, used supplied tap to re thread hole, screw in the helicoil, I use red loctite, and voila, you have a new threaded hole

Ok I got that figured out, combination of a couple things, the two top bolt holes for the pump had the threads wallowed out and wouldn't stay tight. So I idrilled them out and installed a helicoil in each one . Then I saw that Saturn Surplus sells new pumps on evil bay so I bought one. I...

I'm having a hell of a time trying get my oil pump on the transfer case to actually pull oil, I have primed it, bench tested it, seems to work, but it won't pull oil out of the bottom of the transfer case . Am I missing something?

Thanks It's good to be back, i couldn't even climb in the goat for over a year. Lots of work still to do but I'm back on it.
