Well here is the windshield. I am honestly really impressed with myself. I did not expect it to turn out so well. Just one more bracket and it will be fully mounted. Looking for some rubber pieces to...

Alright folks, I know it has been a while but not cause nothing has been done. I will post the pics later tonight when I get to the house.

So I got everything back together without too much...

LarrBeard, I understand that. But I can't promise that it won't still irritate me a little bit. Really appreciate the kind words. Thanks to the rest of y'all too. I went ahead and ordered a couple of...

Transfer case is complete. It cleaned up really nice and I am pretty proud of the finished product. I have to get a new yoke nut cause one of mine was boogered up pretty bad. Other wise it went...

Bmorgil, I have made sure to take a look at that correction you put in the Tech Info for sure. I have also been taking some time looking over most of the stuff you have put up on there. I have also...

TJones, yeah I had that exact feeling. I have a bunch of pieces in the garage and I am sure the Mrs. is wondering when it will get put back together...lol I still have some cleaning to do, but only...

Great to hear that from y'all. The way Rick talked if it isn't prestigious, replace it. But I could have been misinterpreting for sure. Definitely bearing need replaced and the synchronizer was...

It is looking pretty bad folks. I'm not sure much of anything is reusable. Granted I still haven't done any cleaning, but it is bad. Don't worry about the makeshift table I have it on...lol But y'all...

Bmorgil, alright I will plan to do that as well. Plus making sure to get the flywheel resurfaced as too.

Jeff, good call on those yokes as well.

Gonna start tearing things down this evening...

So are you saying that while I am in there I should replace that too? Or depending on how it looks? I know I got some bad leaking on that transfer case too, i'm gonna have to at the least replace all...

Alright Bmorgil, you have convinced me to attempt it myself. I will make sure that the Mrs. knows we can do this...lol Just so happens that my Harbor Freight here has one of those on hand as well. So...

Bmorgil, I cannot emphasis enough the pain it was laying under that thing with my wife and maneuvering it out. Granted, I am sure it is much easier with ALL of the shifter levers unattached but that...

GM, gotcha that makes sense. I just hadn't screwed it off far enough, but I got it. Yeah I had to take that clutch arm off all the way in order to get the transmission out. I did not take the the...

Alright, so I started the removed today and I have everything disconnected. There is one thing that I cannot find anywhere. It appears to be a rubber hose that runs out of the transfer case. As you...

Alright then...I am starting to decide why not just go for it and do the tear-down myself and see what I got. My real worry is actually getting the box and case off without messing something up. I...

Oh man...so you are both saying I should probably just cut the losses here and do a complete overhaul or drop in a new one altogether. I did find while I was in there that at least one plate was...

Borgia I think you are probably right. I am doing some more inspection now and it appears the springs are either broken or past their use. The synchronizer just keeps pushing the plates out and they...

Sorry y'all, I have been out traveling for the holidays and am just now getting back home. I will get a few pictures this afternoon and put them up here. I think y'all are on the right track here...

bmorgil, I was hoping for at the most the same thing. However, I took the top off last night and it just seems bad to me...not an expert here by any means though. One of the sychronizer shift plates...

bmorgil, I am saying that the stick won't move out of 2nd gear. Like I said it was really strange to just happen with no indication of an issue.

gmwillys, that is what I am hoping for. I am not...

Just checking in folks. And I agree with LarrBeard, no paint for the Heep. I have made a few additions but nothing crazy just yet. I am working on the windshield frame right now but probably won't...

gmwillys, i have always liked the look of your old Heep. I feel the same way about taking mine to the trails and eventually retiring it to farm and hunting use once my time in the service is over. My...

LarrBeard, you are absolutely right...Christmas came early. And it certainly feels good to correct a problem. Hopefully that means I can ask the wifey for other things for it now. Mom got like a half...

Just a couple pics of the seat I made from the old canopy it was originally sitting under. The Texas wind destroyed it, so I repurchased the piping, got the vinyl material and some seat...

Well folks there you have it. Another instance where a "new" pump was no good. My old pump had a leak that was keeping it from getting enough vacuum. I replaced with the "new" one, but that one was...
