Tonight I removed all the brake components from the rear axle. After removal, I gave everything a nice hard cleaning (it REALLY needed it!!!). All I have left is the drivers-front to remove and I will have all the brake components removed. So far I have found only one wheel cylinder that was...

Earlier today I ordered two new pinion seals off ebay for my front/rear differentials. I also ordered a set of those box end wrenches that ratchet and swivel (I also ordered two individual wrenches in sizes that I use on the jeep most that only ratchet and do not swivel). Almost every time I...

Today after work I re-filled the transmission and installed my new seat cushions (I have not purchased a new cushion for the pass seat). After getting everything buttoned up I thought "what the heck...why not!??". I hopped in the jeep, cranked it over and drove it around the field next to my...

Ditto X10000

As stated above: 5.38s...these rigs come w/some CRAZY low gearing.

You are right about Ms. Cindy! That woman is a steel guitar playing prodigy. Funny that you mention asleep at the wheel. They are actually playing at bob wills (they do every year). I will see if I can snap some good pics. They play saturday which is our main day. Here is the link to the...

I agree! He and his group were talented musicians. Unfortunately, no he did not get his start here. He was actually born in OK but he lived on the far side of Hall County in Turkey, TX for a portion of his life. The festival is held there every year on the last weekend in April.

My new tool box arrived today. This evening I had planned to button up the transmission then purge the coolant system. That plan was blown out of the water by the weather (which ended up missing us). We were forecasted for 2in hail, 60mph+ winds, etc. Thankfully the storm system decided to track...

Sharp looking M38A1! Those HMMWV seats are pretty comfy compared to the stock hmmwv seats. I have been considering that mod to my M38a1.

amazing!!!

Today I mixed coolant (just a hair over 50% coolant) and filled the M38A1s cooling system. I did not run the motor to purge the air pockets because the motor oil is still drained. Once I re-fill the motor oil I will run the motor for a bit and let the air pockets purge/t-stat open/etc. and top...

I installed the 78in rack in my kitchen. I live in an old farm house which means that storage is very limited. Ill snap a picture if I remember...but no promises. The 3 72in racks I installed in my shop/garage room. Until now I have had to just keep stuff in the floor. It made everything...

Yea but that is part of life I guess hahaha thanks. It looks super sharp all setup. I am uploading pictures as I type this.

Last night I ordered 4 new wheel cylinders from eBay. They should be here in a few days. the extra money I usually put toward my savings account went elsewhere this time. I decided to splurge on myself and bought some more toys for my shop room. Pics will be posted when they arrive. 1X of...

Back from the weekend. It was nice to see my younger brother before he ships out to Korea w/the US Army. I got my brake drums back from the shop. They were turned and look super pretty now!!! No more of that nasty lip that had been worn in the drums from years of use. I need to order some...

today I knocked out a few things on the Jeep. I re-filled the transfer case, installed new rad hose, and diagnosed my generator shake. X-fer Case: There isn't enough room under the jeep to tip a gear oil bottle so I had to engineer my own solution. I found some old fuel line I had in the...

Well my rear diff was leaking after the re-fill. I half-way expected it. When my gasket arrived, the sender had written on the package "DO NOT BEND" in several places around the package. The mailman choose to disregard all warnings and folded the gasket/package to fit in my mailbox ARGH!!!! USPS...

that is true on the t90 fluid. The designers probably had an engineering degree...I do not hahaha. I will heed your wisdom and err on the side of caution. I will stick to the 1qt of fluid. I am not worried about braking performance and fully understand old car vs new tech (not expecting it...

awesome! Thanks for saying thanks. I really love sharing projects on forums...especially if it helps someone else along the way. I have learned so much off forums, I try and give back every chance I can.

Question for all for the T90 experts out there. On my old Ford F350 w/ZF5 trans, you could pull the shifter and add another qt of fluid through the top of the trans. This extra qt really helped quiet the fly-wheel noise (if you had a single mass flywheel) along with several other pros. Will...
