Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Any update on a source for new bushings? Mine are pretty much gone.Mine were completely disintegrated and only the single thick bushing had been replaced by the PO on my truck. Fortunately I scored some new old stock units and rebuilt my latch mount and was able to send two (one thick and one thin) as samples to the manufacturer that's fixing this situation for us. I'm very thankful that I was able to get in touch with someone that was willing to help us out with a solution to this problem.
And if all possible do not tamper with the big nut on the end of item/part #20 it will get-cha !!!!
Contact @GeneralDisorder, he had some made and a bunch of us purchased new one from him. I believe you need 2 sets to get the three pieces you need.Any update on a source for new bushings? Mine are pretty much gone.
I will be sure to wear my helmet.And if all possible do not tamper with the big nut on the end of item/part #20 it will get-cha !!!!

Chucky had his cab half raised (never do that, btw) and he opened the big cap on the side of the latch base (where the little red tab pops out when it locks). The instant he opened it, the hydraulic pressure vented...and dropped the cab...on his head. He had to be rescued....lucky to be alive.I think I'm missing an inside joke.
Ahha! Now the other references about PPE, skull thickness make sense . Glad he is okay though, squashed grape is no good.Chucky had his cab half raised (never do that, btw) and he opened the big cap on the side of the latch base (where the little red tab pops out when it locks).

(we're still not sure he's right....but then again, it may not be a result of the accident )
;p
Ha-ha-HA AND YOU THINK IM CRAY CRAY !!!! You have alot more green/tan iron in your back yard than i do ! Thats how you take the pulse of sanity by just how far down the rabbit hole you have plunged with our hobby ! And i think im mentally just about back to normal since the cranium pressure check other than when the trash truck comes to the house ! I piss my pants and drop to all fours and start chasing the truck down the driveway ! They say that will pass as well !It's inside alright. View attachment 904361
76 to 94 Ft/lbsI finally replaced the disintegrated rear bushings on my cab, the improvement in ride quality is much greater than I expected - that A1R front suspension is STIFF. Does anyone know what the correct torque specs are for the bushing through bolt?
