M561 Gama Goat Access Plate

Charlie 6 · Feb 8, 2013

Restoring a M561 Gama Goat that seen better days. The access plate located under the passenger seat, the bolts are all seized. I moved on to fixing the brakes. Anyone know what's under this plate? Anything critical that I should not put off looking at. Goat runs fine, just no brakes.

There is nothing under that "Hatch" It's just a void. Would make a nice tool storage but is not sealed from the bilge. Any water or oil goes in there freely.

Yup, no buried treasure ! lol Found this out first goat. I also found out how to twist my body under the dash to replace the brake light pressure switch. That was great fun too.

Thats funny you say that because I opened that plate also and only once...and I helped a friend replace the pressure switch...The steering box may be my next treat..

Front or rear?

Front..I will probably tackle it in March.....It also has an oil leak that I am 99% sure is the filter so ordered the adapter...You know you have the green disease when your giddy over getting an adapter..
