  1. Hi all,

    I've been searching through the manual, but cannot find any main dimensions.
    Or I'm looking way over them....

    Does someone have the dimensions for a STD engine for:

    - Pistons
    - Cilinder diameter
    - Crankshaft Main Bearing Journals
    - Crankshaft Connecting Rod Journals

     

    thanks a lot
    Frank

     

  2. Hi Corey,

    That's some nice work done!
    THanks for sharing.

    I did a similar extercise a while ago and attached the file to this post.
    My file is based on the M29C with the push/pull light switch.

    I also added the ordering number for the following website.
    I did not order any of these items yet, so there might be incorrectness.

    Good luck with your wiring.

  3. Beside work on the Weasel, my Willys MB had some heart surgery...

    Weasel works were to weld the bracket on the oil pan and make a new piece of wood which is fixed on the engine cover near the gas pedal.

    And found some nice gem....which needs to wait for the next years before even thinking of mounting.

  4. Hi Fred,
    I'm going to fit new bearing, but beside that, all is looking pretty well.

    One of the hubs was completely filled with grease, the other one only partially.
    To get to your question.

    I don't know if the hub should be packed yes or now.
    What I found in my hubs was there were some small cups fitted.
    I don't have a picture with me, and will only be able to make a picture on Thursday.

    On the hub filled with grease, there was only 1 cup fitted, approx 1,5cm in the hub.
    On the other hub, there was no grease in the chaimber, and there were 2 small cups fitted.

    Apparentely these cups might be sufficient to make sure the grease does not finds it way to the bottom chaimber.
    Although, there is a grease zerk on the hub, so overfilling is quite easy. 

    Picture to follow.

    regards Frank

  5. THANKS!

    I am indeed planning to use bronze bushings.
    The needle bearings were totally gone, and the shafts have some pitting on them which would not be ideal for new roller bearings.

    The seal number really helps! Thanks for that!

    Do you happen to also have the seal number for the Idler Wheel ( SD-900816 )
    Than I can order all bearings and seals at the same time 💰

  6. I got a very nice gift, which was a repro "push start" button.
    Having my dash completed with some small incorrect things remaining.

    Furthermore started on the return rollers.

    The seal in those rollers, is consiting of 2 parts.
    In the manual this only has 1 number: SD-908196
    Anyway it is possible to remove the seal seperatly.
    Does anyone know if there is a replacement part for only the seal (RH)?

    you do a really nice restoration, with lot of details!

    Thanks a lot Laurent!

     

    I know of the speedometer. 
    It is a repro one, and I bought it for a reason, although I don't know what it exactly was any more, I think to be able to substitute with my Willys
