Yeah and I'm sending you a pm tonight about that and some embroidery questions.
None yet. But give us enough time and Ferro will come up with a good idea. He keeps threatening to do some kind of Ga. Rally railroad but at this point, he might just be trolling us.
Let me talk to Al Harvey and see what we can put together. We've been kicking around the idea of doing some basic embroidery, like hats and maybe patches that people could put on field jackets and such. He has some capability and his stuff looks pretty good. I'll report back when I get...
And yes, we are going to have some great t-shirts for sale this year, like last year. T-shirt sales pay for the insurance policy that the rally now carries, so we definitely appreciate purchases. As soon as my buddy finishes the design, I'll post it here and if he gets it done soon enough...
Ok folks, the main information thread for the 16GMVR is up (http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthr...Oct-19-23-2016) and this thread is for buying/selling/trading.
The idea behind this thread is simple.......... The GMVR is a huge event, drawing people in from all over the country. Maybe there's...

We need volunteers for:

So this is a pretty big deal……………….
This announcement marks a big anniversary…………….. 10 years of the Ga. Rally. How many of you can believe we've done this for 10 years?
In 2006, the HMV hobby was growing fast. The govt. was surplussing a lot of M35A2s and CUCVs and this allowed a lot of...
I bought all of them at Napa. They're all standard straight hoses other than the lower. I trimmed a little off the lower and it fit fine. The Napa # is in the deuce civvy cross reference spreadsheet that's stickied at the top of this forum.
I would do ALL the hoses. Every single one. Do it...
This. A thousand times.
We did this to a deuce. Started with a standard 6hp 60 gallon compressor. Quickly gave up and rented a trailer mounted diesel compressor.
You need MAD volume to run a sandblaster.
If some of you are asking questions waiting for the OP (Santa) to answer, you will be waiting a while. Unfortunately Ernie passed away a couple years ago. If anyone else has done some of the mods he did, please feel free to continue this thread with your experiences.
Thanks
Wanna' see a neat trick?
Look at your pictures above............... see how the open end of the base is facing forward?
Unbolt the base, flip it 180° so the closed end faces forward and not only does it bolt into all the existing holes in the floor, but it clears the master cylinder access...

Both sets I've bought had the rings, although I thought the rings weren't the best fit (but I've never had a truck that had an...
That looks like a traffic accident, whereas most of the other incidents have been mechanical issues of varying sorts (wheels falling off, dukw sinking when it dies in a commercial traffic lane and is struck by an unmanned barge, etc.).
Thank you to R4x4 and Porky for answering so quickly. :)
Beretta and others: Yes, the rally is in full swing for 2016. This is a big deal: It's our 10th official Ga. Rally. The dates are Oct. 19-23, 2016.
We are finishing up the artwork for the 2016 shirts and as soon as it's done...
That is a phenomenally good thread (on the rebuild, I haven't finished the install thread). It was very gracious of you to take the time to document the process and of Moses to answer all those questions.
Every Jeep, whether it's the MB/GPW, the MC or MD series, all have sloppy steering boxes...
