:) :) Air the wheels down and try again. That is only if you are not high centered on a piece of gravel. And remember to post some pix.

So what's the deal, are you sitting behind a fence in an impound lot, and need someone to loan you $50 to get out the gate?

Sorry to hear you are sour on Eastern. You should have also ordered a set of their goat seat cushions. :) That would have raised your total. Dealing with shipping has to be the @$$ end of the retail world. But I figure it evens out on my end in the long run. When I ordered arms for my goat I...

Here are some pix I snapped of the brackets on mine, in case you go the DIY fabrication route. Also there are some pix of aftermarket Jeep brackets that could be modified to work as a temp fix to get the Old Girl on the road. Here is a link to my Gama gama hey! post.

Next it was time to shed the Search & Rescue roll bar. So I drove it into the pole barn, strapped the bar to the chain fall hanging from the reinforced truss overhead and raised the bar until it cleared the cab. Then backed the goat out of the pole barn. Then used the tractor to move the roll...

Since it is becoming all the rage, all the cool kids are doing it, and since the gama goat website doesn’t look like it will be revived any time some, let me post up my gama goat recovery. I too have been enamored by the ugly mug of the gama goat, a mug that only certain ‘muthas’ could love...

Is the oa-331 anything like the 6602*continental gas*engine? If so, you might try White Owl in NC, or Boyce Equipment in UT. I have sourced parts for my 5T gasser from them previously.

The support bars for the windshield, or do you mean another part?

I had troubles with this part last year when I started fixing up my M561 I recovered from Utah. For mirror arms try Eastern Surplus on their specials page. I owe them a plug, as they were very helpful replacing inferior mirror arms. http://www.easternsurplus.net/specials.html Search for...

I can't believe some idiot would be so delerious with the green fever to buy a Bridge Truck on a whim like that. Guy must have rocks for brains. It's not like he didn't have enough unfinished projects as it was. The XXX Root beer MV show was great though. Heard that guy got a trophy for...

If you don't, have a tractor, but a cargo bed instead, you can stow a medium towbar under the front foot of the bed. There are two box shaped brackets meant for lashing the staves from the cargo cover bows under the front of the bed. If you are lucky the straps, for securing the staves, are...

Here are WA rules for what Storm is talking about. You can not put an 84 sticker on a non-84 plate according to rules. But you could always get an older vehicle. Restored plates A restored license plate is a Washington-issued license plate that was designed for use in the year of the vehicle’s...

This is where the horizontal pieces from your rear cargo cover bows get stowed when not in use. They go from one side to the other and then get strapped on both sides. I strap my tow bar in there. The uprights with corners attached go in the mall rectangle holes in the lip of the bed frame next...

Nice clip. I think the guys at the guard gate were waiting for you to slow down as you were leaving. :) So what is the box you have mounted under the front bumper? Is that hydraulic fluid storage?

Here is another essential D.U.K.W. training video. Was that :papabear:at 20:41??? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tT_SChzTGvw#t=1241s I tried to embed the video, but just couldn't figure it out. PM me if you know how and I will edit it.

Rkrug, How difficult was it to remove the entire doghouse & gear shift column along with disconnecting the linkages? I think I like that path better then cutting holes, plus there seems to be a lot more room to work. Patracy & Rkrug thanx for the step by step pictures.:beer: And for those who...

I thought that all of you DUKW enthusiasts would enjoy watching this video the local news station recorded about John Ingleke, who is planning on swimming his DUKW down the Columbia river to the national MVPA rally in Portland this year. In the most recent MVPA magazine, Steve Preston, mentions...

tburk/Tim, Danielle speaks the truth. For the last few years Varyag and crew have made it from Garfield down to my place in Kennewick, as a first leg. Then we head over to Napavine, via yakima and hwy 12, the following morning. There is plenty of room for your rigg and a place to sleep if you...

That is a great accessory build. Thank you for all of the detailed pictures. I have always wanted to do something similar for parades. I was going to with card board tubes, epoxy and a baby seat to the side of the blast shield. That way way we could throw a helmet on my buddies toddler, strap...
