There is a guy on ebay in Ga who sells a lot of mil Jeep stuff at great prices. I think his username is wcf4.

You have it down 100%. No, the drain and fill plugs are tapered, so the further you put them in, the tighter they get, removing the need for seals and gaskets. A torque value may exist, but I just tighten them to where they are snug. Better to have to go back and add half a turn than to get...

Very nice. Welcome to the deuce world.

That is super nice! Congrats Nick.

Cool-someone already spent the money for you. :D I would disregard advice from this source in the future. I am not sure what this even means- "too small" meaning it won't have enough power to "push" the taller gears? That's baloney. "Too small" meaning it is such a little 4 cylinder that...

Congratulations Carnac, I am happy for you. I know how much you've wanted a WWII Jeep. I can't wait to ride in it! If you need any help with it, let me know. C

flyusn99 had one in Florida but it was an older one and didn't have the cargo tie down thingies.

That is crazy and awesome. Crazy and awesome is the best kind of awesome.

Carnac is a great dude.

Kenny, that just looks great. bravo!

CJ5 is probably close enough. I don't know the limitations, but it's probably waaay more than sufficient for the vehicle, especially when run through a snatch block. I've never seen a factory winch on an MV that was insufficient. The M38A1 will have "drive flanges" like a deuce. There is no...

I've never counted that first year as an official SS Rally-it was an impromptu cookout. In 07 when we had a pavilion at Unicoi, I'd call that the first rally.

Welcome to the site, Zack. The rally is in Union Point, Ga.; which is East of Athens. We don't have a thread up yet, but you can check out last year's rally info thread for the basics. Most of this year's rally will be the same as last year. Simply change the dates and I suspect 95% of the...

ditto. Keep your water can for times you need 5 gallons of water. Keep it in your truck for long trips so if you spring a coolant leak you can top off the system until you can get the leak fixed, have a way to wash your hands at rallies, etc. Or use it the way the army intended-boil potatoes...

I am sure you can find someone who will give it a good home. That's definitely a restorable truck.

I occasionally have the same problem. Worst chat software EVAH!

I believe most of the harnesses out there are more like 5 year old NOS, not 25 year old NOS. My 2 ebay rear tail light harnesses were pretty recent.

I think the OP is asking where the most reasonable price would be found, not just where the bearings could be found. I agree that high quality bearings can be expensive. The '55 M38A1 that clintogf and I had needed all the front wheel bearings (some douchebag drove it in water and mud and...
