ATTN: M43 OWNERS NEAR SOUTH DAKOTA
would really like to be able to look at, photograph and measure the bunks in the back of an ambulance.
So i could get an idea of the feasibility of making them for mine.
I am in rapid city
Thank you in advance

i called my willys jeep the crack ho for the following reasons
made horrible noises at the worst moment for no discernable reason
acted like the world was ending and 2 minutes later all was sweetness and light
demanded all my money and still wasnt satisfied
erratic behavior 24-7
Coming back from shooting a hear a loud noise.
Pull over and look at everything under the truck.
Hmm looks ok
Drive some more
BOOM!!!!
Pull over and find that the parking brake band came loose and whacked the underside of the ambulance.
Zip tied it out of the way and came home
I caught my parking brake pad on fire today.
I forgot to release it and drove about 100 feet when the cab filled with smoke
I stopped and looked under there
Sure nuff a little bit of flame.
Used my fire extinguisher for the first time in my life

Good gawd installing the channels was a total nightmare.
Gave up on trying to even get the rear ones out.
5 hours and got it only half done.
At this rate it would be more time and cost effective to buy entire new doors with good window seals!
It looks like you hafta...
The MV community needs folks that know their **** about these vehicles.
The old guys are dying and the world needs replacements of kind,generous and knowledgable gents to carry the torch.
That means us.
So soak up every bit you can.
Because some earnest young pup is going to be looking for help.
So far mine has
12 volt
318 engine
435 transmission
205 transfer case
Power steering
Locking hubs
40,000 BTU heater
and lots of sound and heat insulation.
Interior lights are LEDs
Complete new wiring throughout
Electric wipers
Thats all i can think of right now
I haven't decided on disc...
Trying to figure out what exactly the window sweeps and channels need to look like in profile so i can get the best stuff.
I think the sides need to be L shaped because the windows have no frames.
But inside the door is a U shaped deal and it looks like it had fuzzy stuff on it
