Enigma

Yeah very tiny bikini's with miniature logo......so you can play dumb when you stare from up close........

:dunno: :computerterror:

 

Crap, you %#@$* computer! :argh: :computerterror2:

try again, think its works now...

please correct me if i am wrong.

 

You can make up dummy flanges without machining anything.

 

It is only the splined hub that causes the axles to rotate

 

Once that is removed the front axles do not rotate at all, UNLESS the

front axle is engaged via the transfer case.

 

I made dummy flages out of flat aluminium and simply attached them using only

4 bolts ( i only drilled 4 holes in my dummy hubs )

The axles simply sit there.

 

The reason I did this is my front inner oil seals were leaking badly, causing dif oil to foul the brakes. They do not leak once this has been done.

 

I subsequently put the hubs back on, once the problem was rectified

 

The info I used to do this was obtained over the 'net, as per dr deuce, i think.

 

A search on CCKW should reveal regards tony

 

Yep, I did the same on my Dodge WC 21, don't forget to take the original hubs with you though!

Tootallmike, thanks for the thought. Yes I'm still interested in split drive flanges, perhaps you can drop me an e-mail to Belringer @ ntlworld.com .

 

I had considered machining some hubs out, but after experimenting I'm not totally convinced that a "real" saving is to be had. It may well lessen steering problems and reduce the noise a little, but is the hassle worth it, when you actually do get stuck !

 

If like Dr deuce I was doing high milage it might be worth it, but by the time you've fitted bigger tyres, larger engine and an auto box , you might as well have started with a different vehicle in the first place ! I like my jimmy just the way she is,....... Vanilla.

 

You can machine the hubs...just make sure you've got a good set in reserve with you in case you get stuck!

Selling stolen property, it is illegal to remove sand, shingle etc from a beach.

 

Clad him in irons!!!

Well done Jack!!! Pretty soon you're gonna be indispensable (sp??)!!!

 

What does (sp) , mean????

My brother has the Battle of the Bulge, from after the battle.

We took it along for our vacation in the Ardennes last summer.

A very good book, suppose the Ruckmarsh will be as good.

Now there's an idea for a photo - all the vehicles owned by HMVF members gathered together.... Need some serious lenses to get that lot in!!

 

 

 

Sounds good!

"Sheeple" ?????????????

 

Whats that?

A combination of sheep and people?

If so, I say a lot humans are sheep....

And Enigma, this is a gentlemans club :whistle:

 

So why are YOU allowed then??

Not me :evil: but I do have some sand from Utah :-D

 

I got a bit of Omaha beach sand...

I remember the plane found in 1991, mot flight 19.

The Methane gas theory is quite convincing.

Gas expanding under pressure and igniting gets very hot; I know...I got 3rd degree burns by such a incident.

It was a clean burn, it healed fast and without scars

It may also reduce noise levels.

See the guy with the glasses in the photo?

Above him slightly to the left.

That's a massive vehicle!!

Cool photo.

You don't see those IHC around much!

Don't trash the place before I am allowed in :argh:

No snow here, there is mist....

I am (as usual) in awe about the amount of work on this truck - well done!!

Tha AMTRACKS were also succesful, employed in the Pacific and Europe.

Have you got photo's?

So Jack; in the future you'll have lots of munchies at tea time?

Richard, thanks, sounds good!

Bodge Deep, Barrow on Furness.

FV601, I'll go to Beltring anyway.

Artist Rifles (and Sirhc), I have since 2/3 years a proper KILT!! (well 2 actually).
