    1942 cckw project thread

    Maybe weld up the wrong holes. Not sure exactly what material the flywheel is made out of. But sure making a flywheel out of steel plate would work. The ring gear is shrunk on.

    Nothin’. I wondered if it was possible to use one hole and redrill 3 new ones.

    The 302 has 6 bolts holding the flywheel to the crank, the 270 has 4. The 302 flywheel for the hydramatic won’t work with a clutch. 302 manual transmission flywheels are impossible to find. The 270 water pump will bolt in place of the 302. The 302 does not have a front motor mount on the...

    The instruments are electric and show random readings until you turn on the ignition. Caged brakes only mean no parking brake. But you will want to uncage them prior to the ferry ride.

    Maybe center of gravity for lifting.

    The delineators are a Europe and I think Korea thing. They have been used there since the 70’s. That tailgate is used as a back porch when the truck carries a S280 shelter.

    Aloha from a newby

    Well you stole that thing. I see no red flags in the pictures except for the door butcheries. Those delineators say your truck only recently came to your islands. Any two car batteries will get it started, IF it starts. Good luck. Haha and no it doesn’t have “factory A/C”!!!

    M38A1C identification

    Well I cannot speak for the Canadian military, but the US military hand engraved numbers on data plates all the time. Your plate was indeed not factory stamped like eaw46’s, but I have never seen someone in the hobbyist market repop M38A1CDN plates. Very likely not done after being surplussed...

    M38A1C identification

    How could anyone dispute the 1971 year model when it’s engraved on the main data plate by the Canadian military. I bet the Jeep was delivered as a plain A1 and the Canadian military took the recoilless rifle pieces off an older Jeep and added them to this one.

    M38A1C identification

    Well that explains everything. You have a Canadian military M38A1. Says right on the main data plate CDN3. The VIN or mfg serial number is 100190. The other plate with 71-05014 is the Canadian military registration number in front of the serial number. I would guess 71 means 1971 date of...

    M38A1C identification

    The last USMC M38A1s came out in 1964 and the newest M38A1C that I see is 1955. Can you send pictures of the dash main data plate and the rear tailgate area. The VIN plates were not held on with screws.

    M38A1C identification

    Welcome. VIN is way too many digits. Should be maybe 5. No M38A1s or M38A1Cs were made in the 1970s.

    GMC m135 rebuild

    Someone just advised they removed the outer wheel bearing and that allowed them to wiggle the hub/drum around to unstick the shoes.

    Motor freight will be about $150 if you collect the item at the terminal. Brent Mullins Jeep Parts has new fenders for one side I forget which. Looks like you need both.

    Type of motor in Deuce

    Can you count the cylinders again and get back to us. EDIT: OK now we know she's a multifuel. Our newest site sponsor, SOUTHEASTERN EQUIPMENT (SECO) used to rebuild M35A2s and put 4-53 Detroits in them, hence my question.
