Well, I now have the top of the transmission off. Everything looks good that I can see. With the transfer in neutral, I can spin the gears, change gears, etc. No chipped teeth and no metal in the oil. The forks also look good, but looks can be deceiving. I fully expected to see bad things...
I plan on pulling the top of the transmission later today to see what I can. I hope you are right and the fork is worn. That would be much better than having to pull the transmission. Thanks.
A neighbor with a shop close by that is big enough to hold the deuce is going to help me pull the transmission next week. I'll find out more then. In the meantime I'm looking for a good transmission, preferably with the winch PTO attached.
I picked up an MEP-003A at Ft Jackson a few months ago. It was 120 / 240 V, 60 Hz and 10 kw mounted on a M116A2 trailer. I got lucky, it was in excellent shape, and started right up. I intend to power my whole house and got a transfer switch off E-bay. It is also diesel powered, has it's own...
I may go ahead and replace the clutch when I have the transmission out. It seems to work well, but I may as well change it out so I will at least know the condition. I'm really worried about the transmission, it was really making quite a lot of noise.
I'll know more when I pull the top off, or at least I hope I'll know more. I was lucky that I drove it home 700 miles from picking it up and then I just drove it almost 300 miles to and from the Georgia Rally with no problems. My problem happened about 10 miles from home and I had no...
While driving my M35A2 W/W today, the transmission suddenly started making a very loud clicking sound in 5th gear when I let up on the accelerator. It was quiet when driving at constant speed. Suddently, the noise got much louder when either slowing down or accelerating. I shifted down to 4th...
Clinto,
I believe what you were told is true. Once a vehicle is registered in GA without a title, you cannot apply for a title. To get a title on an MV in GA, you either need to have an existing title from GA or another state transferred to you, or a copy of the SF97, Bill of Sale, and...
I was just awarded a Deuce from GL. The Deuce was located approximately 700 miles from where I live. The best quote I received was almost $1600.00, plus they wanted another $150.00 to deliver to a residence. I decided to risk it and drive it home. I was lucky in that it started the first...
This was my first rally and I had a great time. Many thanks to Big Case for letting me ride in his Deuce on Friday. I met a lot of really great people and saw a lot of nice MVs. I also spent too much money on parts, but also received some very good information. I've now decided that I need to...
I insured my 1969 Kaiser Jeep M35A2 with State Farm. They know it is a military vehicle and the agent had to request a quote from their headquarters. They issued me a $100K liability commercial policy, although it is not being used for commercial use. The cost is $285.23 every six months...
I read the Georgia regs on titles. The law says that titles are mandatory in Georgia for vehicles manufactured after 1985 and that before 1985 that titles are optional, back to 1963. No titles are ever issued pre-63. However, the law also says that a title will not be issued on a pre-1985...
I finally received a Georgia title for my Deuce! I went back a second time and was told the same thing I was told the first time. No title for MVs with less than 17 digit VINs. I went back a third time , each time seeing someone different, but the same manager, and when I was told the same...
No offense, but I believe you are making a very big mistake not taking the interstate. I recently picked up a Deuce at Ft Indiantown Gap in Pennsylvania and drove it 17 hours straight through to North Georgia. I kept it at 52 max speed on the interstate. The portions of the trip not on the...
I towed an M105A2 950 miles from Ft Riley with an F-150. I purchased a raised pintle hitch from Northern Tool and the result was an almost perfectly level trailer. The F-150 strained a little in the mountains with the 5 liter engine, but otherwise it pulled fine. I was actually amazed at how...
I haven't given up yet. I find it interesting that the Towns County tag people seem to know more about the regulations than the State MVD does.
I planned to go for another visit today, but had some unfortunate luck. I have a Cessna 152 airplane and I suffered engine failure on take off...
