  1. These are impossible to find. Bows are easy to make, but this is one of the hard parts. One set only CNC milled in the USA from original drawings. 90/set. contact me on the board or at flxdsn(at)gmail.com Thanks
  2. Guys, These are those often missing, non existent weasel body studs (6 needed in total) Made in the USA from original drawings as always... 15 ea or 75/set of 6 Contact me on the board or at flxdsn(at)gmail.com Thanks, Rob
  3. Guys, These are #1 grade, very nice copies of the wing nut for the top bow....always missing. These even had the little Studebaker "S" in the casting. Just a couple of sets. Cast from originals. 75ea. contact me on the board or at flxdsn(at)gmail.com Thanks, Rob
  4. Guys, these are the first version of these made...top bow wing nuts, they were a bit of work...drilled, threaded, thread inserts put in with loctite, counterbored. etc They are not "perfect" but they work great. "similar" to original. $50/set contact me at flxdsn(at)gmail.com Thanks Rob
  5. Set of three 75/set contact me on the board or at flxdsn(at)gmail.com Thanks
  6. NEW Weasel Steps... M29/M29C One set correctly made from OEM drawings. often messed up. 35/set of three
  7. NOS in The BOX, doesn't get any better. Just a couple left $175 ea.
  8. Guys, I just have a handful of these. $50 ea I think they are $65 on ebay.... (and I sold those to him😂 🤣)
  9. One only... correctly made...unique to the weasel. $55
  10. Guys, A few spare ones for sale. PUSH START NOS....good as it gets. $50.00 ea. These are $80 on ebay.
  11. Guys, I have a couple of full weasel hat channel kits available. These were made from original Studebaker drawings and are dimensionally correct. They are laser cut and CNC press braked to the proper leg length and radius for each piece. The channels are indistinguishable from OEM and correctly made. What you get, enough pieces to do one weasel. The assembled section is for reference only and will not ship with the kit. The kit has enough to basically make this setup 4x.(though each corner of the weasel is of course not the same) Packed and ready to ship... likely around 100usd via fedex ground. Kits are $450 ea These is the same kit Patrick, the sponsor of this board used on his excellent weasel tub restoration video series on you tube. Rgds, Rob contact me at flxdsn (at) gmail.com (replace (at) with @ ) Thanks I don't want the spam..
  12. Dan, Nice job...lots of work! That's a viable solution for those folks that have decent inner bands! keep it up... you are going to be ready to get your machine going now! Rgds, Rob
  13. Hi Larry, Sorry for the late response, I don't go on here much. Yes, they are all the same. Mid height and centered on the bulkhead, in the passenger compartment. Show very nicely in the Manuals which our board host Patrick offers. Welcome to the weasel! Rgds, Rob
  14. Thanks Guys.. There are several different versions in the pix. I know it's kind of confusing at first look, but just imagine the standard weasel bands only modular...and they bolt together on the grouser. Much easier to manufacture then a continuous band....and much easier to repair by replacing a section vs scrapping the whole band. Progress is slow, but there is progress. Track projects don't happen over night. Some momentum now though...time to make tooling and cut molds. some test blanks, not bent or milled are shown below. Mike can be reached at mhowardems at GeeMail.com (not spelled that way, just trying to keep him from getting spammed) Tom, got you message...will give you a call soon, Rob
  15. T-15's in the Aleutians. https://books.google.com/books?id=MrLvCwAAQBAJ&pg=PT29&lpg=PT29&dq=aleutians+weasel+t15&source=bl&ots=6U2LfGJfSo&sig=ACfU3U1gqEk68n5eYB4JiE1w8e42Jo_MiQ&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwi_gL-IyrPoAhX0IDQIHYpyA-8Q6AEwAXoECAkQAQ#v=onepage&q=aleutians weasel t15&f=false
  16. Guys, Here’s a weasel track project from the T-15 ” skunkworks” you all might find interesting: This project has been in works for some time and is finally getting closer to fruition. Basically, the scope of this project is to remake OEM style bands for the T15 weasel. (T-15 tanium) 😉 (though a similar process could be used for the T-24/M29 series.) There are currently no plans to build those. The concept is to do the bands in a modular form, instead of a continuous band. The modular design is very similar to that of the M114/M116. That way if you break a band, you just replace the band/section and not the whole track. You still need a serviceable set of grousers to make this work. The band wires are fully vulcanized and encapsulated in rubber similar to the weasel. The wires terminate in steel blocks that are then bolted to the ½ way point on a grouser. Several sections of band make up a band assembly. Because the number of grousers on a T-15 is a prime number there will be one odd, band with one less grouser attachment. Bands, h plates and end terminals are vulcanized and encapsulated in rubber. Terminal blocks of different design have been tested in a tensile tester to 8,000 lbs pull before failure. The following photos should give some clarity to the design. Here are some screen shots....most of this is the early work that has been revised already....many revisions... final design before molding is not show. We hope to be cutting the molds soon. This is project is being done for Mike Howard. Contact him if you are interested. This particular band could also be used on the M7 snow tractor with some modification to the mold, but plans for that have not been solidified. Enjoy... tb.TIF
  17. Dan, One of those stiffener pieces is for your T-15 (made one extra)... do you need the hinge and pull too? Let me know, Rob
  18. HI Patrick, Looks like I posted twice in the buy/sell section is there an easy way to delete one of these? For that matter how do you edit posts? I am prone to typos. Thanks, Rob
  19. Thanks John! These are ever so slightly different from the first batch. New flange metal is not plated, no beveled edge on the socket, slightly different pigtail. Can put that almost indistinguishable edge in there and plate them, but the price per unit goes up. (doesn't seem quite worth it.) You will likely replace the pigtail if you have them made into a new harness...or use as is. rgds, Rob
  20. Thank Guys... Scott, I can just bring you a set if you are going to the Plymouth, CA show. Rgds, Rob
  21. Wiper and accessory sockets. 1 pc $30 ea 2 pcs $27 ea 3 or more $25 ea
  22. T-15 Demolition Charge cases for the T-15 Each held 3 lbs of TNT in the original configuration. 3 required per vehicle. One on engine bulkhead and two on either side of the driver. often missing our cut out. $125 ea
  23. Guys, I'm doing a short run of weasel ski racks. these are made like OEM from an original blueprint. First picture has a spacer in there to hold the rack closed without skis. I'll have about 5 sets that are unaccounted for. 365/set or 315 if you supply and weld on the pull. The pulls I supply are NOS. Thanks, Rob
  24. Patrick, Thanks for putting this together, and doing your informative sheet metal videos on your T24! As you can see there is a lot of interest in both. Great Job, Rob Rob Walsh
