    Colorado Bill SB19-054 RE: (Former) Military Vehicle Motor Vehicle Regulation

    The last time I asked what happened to this, prior to session ending, was that it had made some gains thru the bureaucratic process. The session ended with no vote on it, but "should" pick up where it left off when the next session starts up.

    USMC M151 rear lifting shackle brackets

    Greetings; I'm interested in buying a set of rear corner lifting shackle brackets for a USMC M151. Mine is an M151, with no BO brake light above the tail / turn signal light. I'd take a set for an A1 if that's all I can find.

    Greetings all!

    You know......guys that think that way have a tendency of helping me get into trouble. I like the idea, thinking out of the box like that. So I'll betcha you would like knowing how I had a CJ5 in the garage for 3 months before she finally saw it. I parked my car in the attached garage to the...

    Greetings all!

    I hope everyone is having a great weekend. I have been diagnosed with a having a bad case of "green machine-itis". I noticed myself that the lull time between buying "another one!" as my wife calls them, has gotten shorter and shorter. I just bought Mule #2 maybe 4 months ago and now I've hauled...

    Need some help

    Yes sir, you are not wrong. I failed to identify what the exact problem was and in the spirt of how most of the contributors are on here with a detailed run down on exactly what they did, what they found and what was the cure......I failed you all. As for my knuckle busting, fat finger twisting...

New carburetor, new fuel pump, drained the fuel tank, blew air thru the fuel lines, replaced and installed correctly the fuel filter, could not get the screws loose to drop the tank, tightening, tinkering and it runs again. The idle seems to be...

    M151 shotgun mount

    You are correct, it does not work well, but that is what it was. I have seen some move the mount to go up against the MG mount in the center.

    Need some help

    I started to tinker with it yesterday as my first real adventure into turning wrenches on a Mule. I replaced the fuel filter with a NIB filter, the old one looked brand new, no garbage in it at all. I removed everything up to the carburetor and it is getting gas as I work the linkage. (I'm...

    Need some help

    OK, I just know it can't be too complicated since it still starts and wants to run (most of the time). It's as good a place to start as any. Thanks!

    Need some help

    Hi gang, I need some help with an issue my Mule is having. It has always run like a champ, starts right up in subzero weather after being parked for months without running. Always no issues. Last 4th of July at the end of a parade while driving back to our staging / loading / loading area and it...

    I joined the crowd.

    Wow how time flies. It's only been 3 years since Mule #1 came home and it already has a stable mate. I officially own a team of Mules.

    Gama Goat Swimming or Skinny Dipping

    I know it's an old post, but I like going bac in time and seeing what was talked about previously. The comment about the flat bottoms on Goats bottoming out is no lie. I don't have the mud experience, but I sure do about it happening in deep snow. digging one of these babies out seeking ground...

    Cargo racks and troop seats

    They are very similar. I was missing the troop seats and sidetracks on mine when I got it. I located a set of M35 seats / racks and made a few easy modifications for a perfect fit.

    Gama Goat Swimming or Skinny Dipping

    Be sure to get pictures, I'll get popcorn. I have 2 sets of USMC issue fording freeboard kits if you decide to make this a regular thing. Oh yeah and what was already said about bottoming out with the flat surface ....be sure to go as fast as possible when pushing out as far as possible to get 2...
