I want an UAZ 469. All I'm interested in is the body and the frame. It wouldn't hafta run, or even have an engine to to what I wanna do to it. :twisted:

Here is a link to a very good primer on air brakes. It's on the Flxible Clipper website (was contemplating picking one up several years ago), but 99.99% of the info would still be applicable to one of these trucks: http://www.flxibleowners.org/flxbk/brakes.htm

I'm deinitely going to try and make it. I'm afraid I'll probably still be truckless, but I'm working on that. What was I thinking all this time that Uwarrie was further away than it actually is? :oops:

Check out the vietnamjeep.net link in his sig. Looks like they have quite a few UAZ 469s and the similar Beijing Jeeps, as well as a smattering of more contemporary hardware.

Welcome to the group, from a truckelss member in Wake Forest! The truck looks great! Dig the Tokheim 39 as well. ;-)

ODdave is buying a set of M101a2 trailer springs from me. Problem is, they are heavy, and I do mean HEAVY! And I'm afraid that Brown or White Santa would want an arm, a leg, and a first born to get them up there. Not only that, they would need to be in some mighty stout packaging to make it...

That thing looks like it would be more fun than the proverbial barrel of monkeys!

A few years ago, three Blackhawks and a Chinook landed at the local airfield in Napoleon, Michigan after doing a flyover as part of the opening ceremonies for an MIS race. Gobs of people flocked out there and they opened them up to the public! It was great to get "up close and personal" with the...

Didn't think a Blackhawk had enough balls to do that! Suprised I haven't seen anything like that down here (never saw an Apache or Osprey in action prior to moving down this way).

The Mrs and I stayed at Prizer Point several years ago with our Travco. It's a beautiful area!

Arrived home @ 1800. Aside from a couple missed turns, the trip was uneventful. It was a pleasure to meet you all and I DO plan to come back in the future, hopefully driving something other than a Sprinter. :oops:

Is it too late to put me down for a couple XXLs? Thanks, Don

This method will NOT work, because there is a little metal shelf sticking out about halfway down inside the pocket, I guess it's there to keep the stakes from going too far down inside? I tried to get a pic of it, but none of them came out very well. :(

Managed to get most of them out by driving a crowbar into the 2x2 with a hammer and prying up. Managed to bust off two more though, :( so that leaves three that I am going to try the "wood bit and chisel" trick on.

Not until I get at least a couple more good jokes out of it first. ;)

Just tried to post a bupkiss ad...and it let me! :oops: I was under the assumption that the forum software would automatically "switch on" the privilege once you crossed the 100 post milestone. I guess that is not necessarily the case? :confused:

It still sez I need 100 posts, yet I now have 141. aua What gives? :confused: Don

It is an 8 lug axle.

What is a "brake fluid cup"? Don't have any extra brake line, sorry.
