    Clutch Replacement

    It's probably made for multiple applications. If the same number of holes line up with the original mounting holes on the flywheel, you should be fine. Make sure the clutch disc is the same diameter as the pressure plate.

    Official 2012 SS Ga Rally Info thread

    Use a nylon rope and set the parking brake on the Jeep. Nothing like that good rubber band action!

    Official 2012 SS Ga Rally Info thread

    I liked the tie a rope from the Jeep to a tree and drive the deuce out from under it idea..... No spine damage is a good thing....

    Official 2012 SS Ga Rally Info thread

    Make sure it's pointed towards the back so you can "Dukes of Hazzard" unload it if no wreckers show up.... Maybe Durhamtown can dig us a loading ramp.

    WWI era Swiss Mule Cart

    That's pretty cool. Now all you need is a mule to pull it around. We may have horse (mule) pies in the GA Rally pasture after all!

    New Stencils

    What gringeltaube said. If I didn't have the ability to make what I want, I would just use what I could find. But, it's not hard and doesn't take long, so I don't mind doing it. I prefer the "stencil" look. Letters and numbers with no breaks in them on a military truck just doesn't look...

    New Stencils

    I'm making the font as I go. I've looked around and none of the fonts I have seen match what is on my trucks. The Phantom Stencil font is pretty close, but still has some differences. Mostly the webs that hold the stencil together are in different places. This picture is an example. Note the web...

    New Stencils

    Depends on how big you want the stars Ray. Do you want to paint them on Phil or stick them on? I guess you can do either. I had all the letters left after I pulled the stencil off. How tall do you want the letters?

    New Stencils

    I'm getting ready to paint my M1028A2, so I made up some stencils today. I thought I would do a test to see how they work. I'm painting the truck so I didn't try to line it up with the current marking. I did a quick alignment with the bumper and slapped it on then masked around it. I'm very...

    Who Bought Those Oshkosh MK-48s???

    I have seen several auctions at FL sites within the last year (mostly GSA) that say no SF97 will be issued because the vehicle is considered junk. With that being said, you can buy and sell a vehicle in FL without a title. It is considered junk. I have bought and sold several. I am not a...

    My first sled pull

    OK, maybe that's a different kind of sled, but I've never seen the skid come off the ground when the truck is dragged to a stop. Is that really a guard around the skid? It almost looks like the sled operator put on the brakes.

    cant find a m1028 Dually Anywhere?

    Somebody couldn't give one away in another thread; but I can't remember which one. It was in the last couple of weeks. They come up on GL from time to time.

    Who Bought Those Oshkosh MK-48s???

    I've bought trucks in GA and SC and got a FL title. And they had the correct VIN number on the SF97s.

    Towing a deuce on a trailer

    If you don't want people to go where the truck is, then tow it out to the road where it can be loaded. A goose neck trailer big enough to haul a 13,000 lb deuce is going to weigh 6 or 7 K. that and the deuce are 20K more or less. Your F250 weighs about 7K, maybe more (my F350 SRW 4X4 short...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    This weekend I changed the coolant over to Rotella ELC. Also changed the upper radiator hose. The driver side alternator belt was loose (I tightened it) and cut half way through the hose. I made a guard for the hose so it doesn't happen again. I was going to change the lower hose too, but...
