    GL SUCKS!!!!!!

    Re: RE: Re: RE: GL SUCKS!!!!!! Robyn is not here on the weekends. Give her a chance on Monday. Persistence is the key with GL. Once you get it down pat, you shouldn't have any more problems. I had a couple of issues with my first EUC, but haven't had any with the last 6. Just keep...

    HMMWV in MD for sale $6300

    My money is on a scam. Maybe a Nigerian? Too good to be true price. Words like armour and wenches. This seems like the always included phrase too:

    Grrr...Mon camion est merde (Truck broken again)

    RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Grrr Could be the bendix on the starter is locked up. I had to replace several of those. Could be the ring gear on the flex plate is toast. I had to put a new plex plate on mine because the teeth were worn/broken in a few spots. Easy fix. I would sit on it until you get...

    M1009 Replacing Rear Driveshaft/Differential seal

    Yep, the "paint" on the outside of most seals will heat up from the friction of being driven into the bore and it helps to seal everything together. Did you put some red Loctite on the pinion nut? I would recommend that. I wish I had my 1009 to measure for you. That seal gap looks good to...

    M1009 Replacing Rear Driveshaft/Differential seal

    I have poor-boy'd one before by marking the end of the pinion and the nut with paint before removal and also counting the exposed threads. It worked for several years and was still working when I sold it. The flange of any seal should be flat against the end of the housing after being driven...

    Bad lift job?

    Yikes. There are some tremendous side loads on that thing when making a turn. It wouldn't take long to work that loose and spit it out. Then, it would get real ugly! Don't forget to use the short links programs for those monstrous links guys. I chopped it for you Stretch. It was almost as...

    686A Tan - current sources, Gillespie and others?

    Cool site, Mark. I plan on painting my next truck in the water-based CARC from Sherwin Williams. I have used the solvent based CARC before and it does a nice job, but water-based would be so much easier to thin and clean up.

    686A Tan - current sources, Gillespie and others?

    Mark at RAPCO stocks it as does George at Army Jeep Parts. I'm sure there are others. I have had good luck with the GC Tan paint in the past.

    I like to give them a quick shot of silicone spray and keep the covers on them when not in use.

    John Winslow

    Yeah, John is a good guy. He was a huge help on my 923A2 project. Big selection of parts and very reasonable prices. He has some trucks for sale too.

    Truck without front drive shaft and hubs

    Re: RE: Truck without front drive shaft and hubs I think Matt was being very literal in that removing the hub would make it impossible to mount the wheel and make for very slow going.
