    How many of us are going to haspin this year..

    I don't think the bus would be a good canidate for the off-road.... I have yet to take Kenny's suggestion to stick some 5 ton axles under it. I would like to see a mess load of MV lovers there. Even if they just stop by for the day. I hope by bringing another vechicle, I can cut down on the...

    How do you remove the Hydroboot mount square nut see picture

    If the hydro unit can spin in the plate, maybe put the plate in a vise and turn the hydro with a pipe wrench, instead of the nut? Might break it loose for you. Dennis

    boy, am I in trouble

    Supposably my soon to be wife mows the grass. So far she has mowed the front once. I figure it takes me hour and half to mow, and her 3 hours, so might as well get it done. ( I mow like a madman) I did mange to take out my buddy's fender with the bus. Didn't feel that one. Dennis

    How many of us are going to haspin this year..

    I will bring the willys! And maybe a couple of crazy lawn mowers.... I would like to set up a good generator for the camp. Mine is louder than I would like, but big enough to run a couple of a/c's. Anyone got a quiet generator? I was thinking of setting up camp in a corner somewhere, and...

    help with willys

    This is just my 2 cents worth.... I have the orginal style military tires on mine, and I was climbing hills at the rally last year that the larger tired and newer jeeps couldn't touch. The jeep in orginal form will suprise you with it's ability. The only things that get me stuck are soft...
