One of the "What is that?" questions I get when folks look over the '48 is a question about that little pedal in the middle of the firewall with the spring wrapped around it.
I tell people you...
You need a replica Garand to fill that scabbard:

The heck of it is - that replica costs almost as much as my first CMP...
You just need a Garand to put in that holster

Would we call that a case of F-head constipation?
"I dont know, i think Ham's 48 needs an aluminum head!!"
I don't theenk so. That pile of aluminum is so ugly you would have to sneak up on it in the dark. Cast iron works just fine in the '48.

Memorial Day is the time when we stop and give thanks for the servicemen who gave their lives for our county and our freedoms.

First, The Orange Crush and now The Grey Ghost. You have a knack for putting together pretty vehicles. Double WOW!! Attaboy - we can say that here - not "Attaperson"!
Now we need to see a...
The oil must come from the same place that Milodon thermostats do:
Accel 22500 SAE 10W-30 SF Motor Oil - 1 Quart Bottle (Case of 12)

Good fix on the shock mounts. The isn't much a big saw, a hammer and a welder won't fix. The body looks great too !
[QUOTE If your bushings on the pedal assembly are wobbling about, that may be why your clutch doesn't feel right.[/QUOTE]
The clutch pedal (and to a lesser degree the brake pedal) on the truck...
The Browning M2 is one of the world's greatest fight stoppers.
When Ma Deuce shows up, the other guy very often loses that urge he had to fight or decides he has business elsewhere.

More than you really want to know:
The whole rig in your Jeep is a Radio Set AN/VRC-9. It consisted of the the two big boxes; the RT-67/GR and the PP-112 power supply as well as several cables,...
"... Do you think I should pull it off and do so..."
While you have it apart, I'd do it.
The Milodon thermostst is made of non-obtainium by elves in never-never land or far-far away:

WOW! Congratulations on the find. It sounds like it was an interesting trip getting it back home.
You are doing all of the right things with lubricants and the little details that often get...
BMorgil and I did some science project work on thermostats several years ago.
Back when most of our Jeeps were new, thermostats were rated at the temperature at which they were fully open. If you...

Thank you sir for the compliment. I'm either a storyteller of BS'er depending on who is making the judgement.
Here is a link to pictures with colored wires. They are for an MB, but you get an idea of what colors were original.
Now, a two-cents worth. The wiring on the '48 was a mess. I thought I could...
Here is a link to at least one version of CJ-3A wiring. I was trying to find version with wire colors - think I've seen one somewhere, but ???.

There are several old airplanes flying today (Doc and FiFi, The SuperConnie and numerous B-17/24/25's) that can't fly above about 12,0000 feet because above that altitude they need boost on the...
Probably a good idea. One of the almost lost skills is finding a shop that knows how to undercut the slots in a commutator and then true it up.
