    what's it worth? In cab trans hoist

    Paid $150 for an NOS one a few years ago. Works good in a rough environment where you can't use an engine hoist. Can be difficult to get in place - there were no air shift switches when they designed it.

    Difference Between M35A2s?

    Ok, here's the early style A1 (and early A2-this is my '67 KJ M35A2) mount: And here's a sagging mount on a low mileage (14K mile, verified with all paperwork since the truck was new), never deployed USAF truck that's reasonably new (1988): As requested. This truck was Army, Field...

    Deuce was dead on side of the road.

    So, I have no idea what Andy's budget is or how much of this he wants to do himself or if he wants to farm it out to somebody else, but if it were me: I'd pull the pan and inspect the bearings. See what the bottom end looks like. See if there are parts floating around. If the bearings look...

    Going back in Forum Time

    People say to me all the time "You're so good at search, how do you find this stuff?" It's sad but the best way to be good at searching is to read all of it. When I joined SS, I'd try to read at least 2 or 3 pages of threads, starting with the oldest and just slowly work my way forward. When...

    Difference Between M35A2s?

    I can't speak from experience on the gasser, but there are 2 totally different front engine crossmembers and 2 totally different transfer mount systems. The M44A1 front engine mount is vastly superior to the M44A2 which can bend and sag under the weight of the multifuel. I have several trucks...

    Oddball deuce or?????

    On the drivers side framerail near the pitman arm. Super common for them to be mistitled by previous owners who have no idea (and probably a few DMVs who have no clue).

    Oddball deuce or?????

    Your both correct. What are the odds that the person at the DMV who typed that out also knew that? How many deuces out there are titled as "Kaiser" or "Jeep" instead of "Kaiser-Jeep".

    The EPA/DLA stoppage and where we stand and what we should do

    Ok, we've gotten a few pm's about an unrelated issue that some folks think is related, so I want to cover it here. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) have seized a bunch (40-60) Land Rover Defenders. This is totally, 100% unrelated to our hobby and the EPA really isn't even a part of the...

    EPA / Home Land Security Seizing Land Rovers

    I want to add something to this, since I have a lot of Land Rover friends and am somewhat familiar with the Defender issue. The best article I found online was this C&D one, please go read it: http://blog.caranddriver.com/exclusive-feds-declare-war-on-black-market-land-rover-defenders/ In...

    The EPA/DLA stoppage and where we stand and what we should do

    We are receiving unconfirmed reports from a couple sources that sales will resume again soon. We don't have anything like memos, emails, etc. that are "official", simply verbal declarations that this is the case. I am trying to verify the authenticity of these claims, but sometimes, the policy...

    No clue, it's an old pic from SS I had saved. I can't find the thread it came from.

    Strength of fiberglass sides?

    This was posted on SS a while back and I kind of think the side racks are wood, but the end racks are definitely fiberglass.
