That's what I thought. But the diameter on the cone is the same as the cup. It wouldn't go in the cup, it just sat on top of it. That's why I think it was off of another vehicle and was tossed in when I bought the jeep in parts.

I left it off, it didn't fit with the replacement mount. If I would have used it, it would have been a metal to metal mount since the rubber wasn't tall enough to separate it from the frame.

I've got it somewhere, I'll have to find the data plate. Would that affect the mount?

Well I've made a little more progress. Though getting the transmisson/tranfer mounted to the engine was a bit of a pain. I am having one piece that is puzzling me. I can't figure out / remember where this cone shaped piece was. I thought it was on the transfer case mount, but if I put it...

Okay, well after looking at them more and more, I decided to try and drill out the welds. It was actually a lot easier then I thought it would have been. The plates came right off. Now I'll get some bolts to hold it together and weld the weld holes back up. First gotta clean the lower plate...

Well on the passenger side I think that could work, but it is extremely off on the driver side and would requite being almost half the size. I think I'm gonna call the supplier Monday and see what they say. The bad side is that I ordered them a good while back, but we will see.

Well I decided to mount the motor and trans today and get them on the frame. But I just realized my motor mounts don't fit the frame right. The V on the bottom of them is too deep and they won't sit flush. I'm wondering now, are these CJ5 motor mounts? I did find one thread where I believe...

Well I started looking at all my projects in line and finally realized I have to stop taking on more til some get done. Lately I've been half tempted to hire someone to help, but then again finding good TRUSTWORTHY help is hard now a days. As for the engine, I thought about building it myself...

Okay it's been awhile since I've actually done anymore work on the M38A1. It's amazing how time flies by and then you realize what you thought you put off for a week or two has almost become a year. Got the motor and trans painted yesterday. Gonna let them dry for a couple of days then get...

Got the engine back and ready for paint. Now I'm working on getting the transmission cleaned and painted. Gotta get funds up so I can order seals, gaskets, clutch, mounts, etc. Then get it mounted to the frame.

[ What are your ramps made from? Could you post a closer picture of them?

I know that feeling too well. I see so many that I want to save but the funds just don't spread out far enough. That and the people you run into that think their field find (rusted out) is worth the price of a restored one.

I hadn't really thought about it but it does seem appear to be CARC on the tub. That would indicate a NG "old timer" that wouldn't retire. lol I know when I got to my NG Trans unit in 2007, we still had 2 M151A2s in the motorpool. They were "demilled" by the distributor and carb being hit...

Well first off I've been a member for a short period of time but this is my first posting on here. I usually don't join too many forums but after reading through the vast amounts of information and the support of members, I figured I'd go ahead and jump in. Hoping to be able to go to some of the...
