Re: Vernitis and Back -up Lights

 

Not being an engineer, but having OK cognitive skills, I would immediately think
of going to the Riding lawn mower repair shop looking for parts.... They have a
number of very basic and simple cut off switches that stop everything, that are
just flat spring metal that contact other parts and short the plug out....
Works both ways.. Just my .002 mil worth

Sounds great Mike. I think the 3B would dig to China in the sand with the
tires I'm currently running but it would be fun putting around the dunes
with my little four banger. I just need a tow to the dunes ;-)

Re: 'Ya gotta see this.

$39000 divided by 200 people is $195 per person. Problem is there are only
78 jeeps. That would be .39 of a jeep per person. On the other hand, 78
people putting in $500 per would cover the $39000 and leave one jeep per
person. Not a bad deal on the surface. However, where are they, what would
be the cost of getting them to us, how much time would we have to get them ,
are there import duties, shipping fees, etc.
Then we would have a fight on our hands to see who would get which
jeep*chuckle*

Good God, tell me that photo has been touched up or that this is some

that would only be about $2,000 a Jeep per person. I'd sell something to
get a stock MB at that price. ;-)

Do you think out off all that we could put together one decent Willys?

Re: List Policy Suggestion

I agree! Too complex, not enforceable enough, the vehicles all share so
many components, and the traffic on this list is manageable enough.

I was just thinking; another mailing list I'm on that deals with several
different "flavors" of vehicle under the same general topic encourages
their users to put in the subject line, which model they are referring
to.

Would it be a good idea if we started doing the same thing here? For
example, they have [1], [2], [3] (for the three different "generations")
as well as [misc] and [none] - for things related but not to a
particular
model, and things generally unrelated. [humor] is also in use;
hopefully
self explanatory. :}

What this does is it gives people the opportunity to ignore messages
that
they know aren't interesting to them. On the other hand, that's a
pretty
high volume list; maybe we don't need a scheme like that here.

We could have [2a] [3a] [5] [PU] [DJ] [FC] and [W], for example.

Would this be of value, or just needlessly complex?

Re: Back -up Lights

Ronald L. Cook
 

uhhh---well....could be. As a matter of fact, that kind of dawned on me
earlier today, but it is hard to overcome vernitis. Reinventing,
backing up, wheels, windshields--whew.

Maybe someone on the list has a new enough t90 equipped vehicle that
would have factory back up lights. I hate to mention it, but IH Scouts
come to mind. Didn't they use the t90?

Guys,

This is just an idea, and I could be completely off-base here, but didn't Kaiser
use the same T-90 in the Jeeps at least till AMC bought them out (and maybe
later)? Did some of those late '60's or early '70's Jeeps have backup lights? If
so, you see what I'm getting at here.
Or did they not put backup lights on Jeep till after they stopped using the T-90?

A zero was dropped on the cost. The site states $390,000 for all or $5,000 per jeep.

Good God, tell me that photo has been touched up or that this is some
Urban Myth or something. Let's see, we have a few hundred list member,
that would only be about $2,000 a Jeep per person. I'd sell something to
get a stock MB at that price. ;-)

Was goofing around and found this.... MB for sale :-) Anyone want to split
the cost? I would be willing to bet the guy would come down on price a good
50K if we talk real nice.



Do you think out off all that we could put together one decent Willys?

For disassembling the T-case the book calls for Willys Tool W-139. For those
of you that haven't seen this mythical tool you can see the one from the book
at:

Since these tools are few and far between, I decided to make my own. This
I finally
settled on the following approach. It only cost me $5 to make and it works
great:

I used a grinder to cut out the center. I bought the cheapest one I could
find so it would be softer. I'm sure my grandchildren will find this tool
after I'm dead and gone and spend a lot of time scratching their heads. :-)
You're a genious. Simple, cheap, and effective -- there's nothing
better. This was the biggest problem I had in getting my xfer apart,
and my SM420 as well. I spent hours working through this problem. You
can be sure that I'll remember this for the next time around, I'll even
be sure to pick up an extra one or two at the next auction I go to. I
especially dig the notion of exploiting the inferior steel of the
cheaper axe.

Well done.


I feel a bad case of Vernitis coming on. :-)

List Policy Suggestion

William T Wilson
 

I was just thinking; another mailing list I'm on that deals with several
different "flavors" of vehicle under the same general topic encourages
their users to put in the subject line, which model they are referring to.

Would it be a good idea if we started doing the same thing here? For
example, they have [1], [2], [3] (for the three different "generations")
as well as [misc] and [none] - for things related but not to a particular
model, and things generally unrelated. [humor] is also in use; hopefully
self explanatory. :}

What this does is it gives people the opportunity to ignore messages that
they know aren't interesting to them. On the other hand, that's a pretty
high volume list; maybe we don't need a scheme like that here.

We could have [2a] [3a] [5] [PU] [DJ] [FC] and [W], for example.

Would this be of value, or just needlessly complex?

Prime network- win a Willys contest

Hey fellow Canadians,

There's a 48 Cj2a to be won, watching the Prime network's M.A.S.H series
until September. I didn't catch all details, but they did show the jeep.
AAAHHH, what a beauty!! Unfortunately, she's not completely original, she's
disguised as military.
Keep it tuned to this station for further details.
And to our friends south of the border, sorry to be teasing you.

Later,

Napa sells a kit for this. Kinda neat really and should have worked very
well. It consist of a puller that is a headless screw driver that has a hole
instead, a wire with a "Chinese finger torture" type device on the end that
you use to thread a new rope seal through the groove and a couple of
flexible pieces of steel in case of trouble getting the seal to set properly.

Unfortunately when I pulled on the seal, the whole oil guard slid right out
in one easy motion. I simply installed the new seal as prescribed in the
book and slid the guard back in. All in all, took about 20min.

Did it fix the leak? Nope :-)
I did the rear main seal on my L head 134 and put a neoprene (?) seal in
rather than the old rope style, I'm guessing that the Fhead seal could
be done the same way. It wasn't that tough, and it did stop my leak
(at least for now).

Re: Bernie's Electrical lead

 

Thanks Frank! I called them today and they are sending me their terminal and
wire catalog. They also make wiring harnesses for the MB models and the Willys
Aero. I had to laugh when they told me that they could duplicate my wiring
harness if I sent it to them. They might have a hard time duplicating the rats
nest made out of the cloth insulation I found under the dashboard.

The cloth wiring is shot, and I don't want to start any
forest fires. Anyone know where to get these clamp-on bulb contacts? I
could use shrink-wrap on the old terminals and splice 'em to new wire
but some of them are corroded beyond rehab. Any ideas? [ Pic Attached ]
Get a catalog from Rhode Island Wiring Service 401-789-1955. You'll swear
some one sent you a Christmas Catalog!
