Parts manual does not show any screws, it has a channel in the foam that sits on top of the WS frame. I bet a piece of 1/2" foam pipe insulation shaved to the proper height length wise would work.
Looks great, I remember help setting up the old canvas maint. tents. If we were lucky we had a bucket loader to help, if not standing on top of the 5 ton cargo cover was the norm. Of course uncle sam had plenty of privates at his disposal.
When you replace the fuel filters you need to fill the canister with fuel, as much as it will take before you put the can back on. It doesn't have an electric fuel pump, it has a mechanical pump and without fuel in the filter canisters it may never prime. You may also want to check the air...
Installed the new tractor to carrier brake lines, blasted the carrier wiring harness connector with plastic media to clean it up. That finished up what was needed to be able to connect the carrier back to the tractor. Enlisted the help of my son and we attached the carrier, a little tedious...
The total with shipping was $115.55, I shipped my old ones to the GA store to copy. Here are the part numbers:
13.25" X BQ101RB HF31 & HFIM19 2EA @ $22.03
12.00" x BQ101RB HF31 E/E 2EA @ $26.10
The longer hoses are the ones that are exposed and attach to the tractor, the shorter...
Flexible lines arrived for the carrier to tractor. Raining today so I broke out the tubing bender and some 1/4 tube and fabricated the hard lines that mount on the carrier flex coupling. Will unbolt the engine mountings today and perhaps will pull the engine power pack this weekend. Glad to...
Well it seems there is a demand for goat thread activity so here is what I have. First a stuck engine, plan is to pull the engine and get the head off to see what's going on, probably a re-sleeve and new pistons at a minimum. I received a few parts recently and finished the final two lights...
The only two official storage bags were the tool pouch and document bag attached to the rear of the drivers seat. I suppose they would fit in the tm bag, the goat doesn't seem to have any real hidy holes to stash stuff.
I recall two reasons for the exhaust pipe move, one to help prevent fumes from entering the carrier and to prevent swimming. I don't see it preventing the goat from swimming as the water line is well below the exhaust manifold. I think the fume issue is the most plausible. Mine has the...
All the fuel lines should be 1/4" steel tubing. I recently restored a M38A1, I used standard brake line tubing. You will want to buy a tubing bender and a double flaring tool if you don't already have one. Or you could cheese out and just buy them pre made from one of the many jeep supply stores.
