At least Bubba used different colors... I had one that ALL the wires were blue....and wrapped with blue marking tape.

The 15x5.5 are pretty common on the open market. Those would probably bring $50 to $75 per wheel being refreshed. Ford, Dodge, and IH Scouts all ran the same size wheel up through the early 90s....
With so many drive line components, in our case at work(four differentials, four drive shafts, eight axle shafts, eight wheel ends, eight road grader run flat tires, two axles that turn, eight...
Welcome Sourdough TJ. I have a soft spot in my heart for M38A1s, so feel free to ask any questions you have. The Sears and Monkey Wards catalog plus the JC Whitney catalog were great wish books!
Welcome Todd! Great looking 3A. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have.
That is a very interesting chart Bmorgil.
I'm having to relearn on how to troubleshoot electrical since transferring to our new production branch. All the electrical has gone to a can bus system. In my opinion, we have overcomplicating a...
It's only down in spirit. I have a spare starter and a generator that can be used in a pinch, but neither are direct replacements. The generator is clocked different on the front mount, and...
That about sums up the process Chief.
I am certain you are spot on Senior Chief. Cooking oil is a good fuel source if it is warmed up, but it makes everyone riding and passing by hungry for French fries.
Hamm is out again for another ice cream season.
The Heep is down right now. I pulled the starter and generator to get them cleaned up and bearings put in the generator. I haven't had time to...
56, larrbeard is 100 percent correct in regards to educated idiots. I too work with engineering, and some of the most educated are punctuation illiterate. If you wouldn't have told us that you...
You don't have to be a subject matter expert to teach. Whe I was in school, our metal shop teacher was a retired Army drill instructor, and the auto shop teacher was a former Chicago cop. The world...
The building is half the fun. The other is the years of smiles you'll get from driving Flossy.
Fuel has come s long ways since then. I had a John Deere B that had a small gas tank to warm the engine up then you turned the main tank which was for distillate, (low grade fuel). The deuce and a...
I really like the "light bar mount" design and execution. Well done TJ.
Well done 56! You'll have the body mounted in no time. Your carb rebuild looks good too for your first time. Now you can get it mounted up and tuned to perfection.
Bmorgil would know better than anyone when it comes to hopping up engines. His daily runner pickup sounds amazing with a great throaty note.
As with the links provided in my previous posts,...
A little more food for thought;

The key thing is, (and I'm sure you hear this all the time) enjoy this time in your journey through life. The skills and knowledge that you have been honing and acquiring through the course of this...
The only thing I could find was that there were 7.4:1 or 7.8:1 compression heads for the mountains. The casting would have a number cast in it as 7.4 or 74, 7.8 or 78 on the top/passenger side of...
Those are some good looking kicks!
You'd get way more thumbs up in the Jeep then Jungle Pam on the staging lane.
Keep at it 56. You'll be able to drive your Jeep through your Senior year. I drove my wagon my sophomore year and it was nick named the aquarium. It was a blast to drive around, but with the low...
Great question! I do not know off the top of my head, but will do some research to see. I know on the L heads, a common "upgrade" was to use the head off of a Kaiser Super Sonic head. Our Heep...
