I dont know why you guys dont get some proper kit and leave the radio control stuff to the modellers.

Ah, so you're leaving it up there for Beltring ?

A positive attitude mate...It's a catalyst...a spark that creates extraordinary results - you should lead your life by it.

Tut Tut....wont have you talk about Jacks ring like that.

Here is some math;

War IS Hell.

Remember :

A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events, and outcomes.

SWR is "Standing Wave Ratio" think of it as aerial efficiency. There should be instructions with it to confirm you tune your aerial to a "null" or "peak" to maximise performance. Once tuned the SWR meter is not necesssary and can be removed.

No... No... No..... 1051 was the number built, not the going rate.

Now why did I say that when I meant 1,051.

Not bad for one of only 159 ? built.

See,... I said the big round bit went at the top.

There was 6 different types in all. The M36 set up, was supported by three poles and was "free standing" over the canvas top, independant of the cargo bed.

The M23 and later M37 (in its 4 different versions) had two steel square sections for uprights with gussets in the underside corners, and was "attatched" to the front end of the cargo bed.

The actual ring (M49) was used on all configurations but the ring support structure varied, between 352, 353 and wood or steel cabs and / or bodies.

There were of course field mods from salvaged kit, but we're talking factory fit here.

I'd post some pictures for you but regret I dont have a hose at the moment.

Will it look something like this when fitted?

Hope not , thats a 37 set up ....for a 353 steel cab or 353 tanker body !

Did they deliver any instructions too?

Well I can tell you the big round bit goes at the top! Its a start.

Pop I've found it a real boon over the years, from being able to run the GPs and reversing camera whilst traveling to keeping the camping fridge going. Ease of starting is just a bonus.

Its a nut and bolt job than can always be restored.

Just my thoughts.

Dont actually know where you'll get one, but I know for one in a Mustang !

Not what you wanted I know, but interesting all the same.

I am planning on taking the Jimmy down to the pit and do some 'period' pictures - once I have asked the farmer for permission

They of course still have a working one at Bovington, up towards Clouds Hill. You could take some REAL pictures there.

....and are we talking Glass bead or shot or sand ? How big will the compressor be, single phase or three ?

This anomaly is because the jeep flywheel is not dowelled. It can be fitted to the crankshaft in several positions, hence the timing marks can become incorrect.

As long as one piston is on the compression stroke and coming to TDC the timing mark will be good, but of course you will have to correct the plug firing order.

Hope that helps.

It will work providing you observe the basic primary / secondary roles of the windings. The risk is possible long term "spark errosion" damage because the spark may well jump to the wrong place. They make such neat little holes.

In industry as we know, spark errosion is a technique harnesssed for steel cutting. Long term you would be best to get it right.

Next, you'll be telling us ..........Bar Grips, are a GOOD thing.

Google for a French site: Souchman. They were on there.

Or plead with me and send cash and i'll have a look thro my stencil fonts, but It wont happen for a few days till I get to the laptop.

Ooh nice dodge.

Jack, we gotta do some serious training here !

I'm not getting drawn on that one !

You pays yer money and takes yer choice, for a selection try:

or Google for "Stencil" fonts.

Use one you like. For I believe there is no correct answer
