    5 layers of paint removed.

    The barrels.

    Patrick. I boil parts in a barrel of water, dish soap, and sodium hydroxide solution. One gallon costs less than the stripper your using, and will do everything on a weasel that will fit in the barrel. For large parts I build a fire under the barrel. For small parts I use a GI immersion burner to boil the water. Takes about an hour. In the summer, parts left in the solution for a couple of days have the same results. Just hose them off afterwards and they’re spotless. Works on grease and paint. I used to spend thousands on paint stripper.

    A guy I know just bought a set of seat backs, canvas, and a top from SOS.

    There is a picture of a 6th Marine division weasel on the forum gallery.

    Not original, but definitely safer. When I used to drive military vehicles, I would find a way to mount a detachable mirror. Then take it off for display.

    Can someone please verify the length of a weasel oil dipstick. Ive got several laying around that are different lengths. Thanks, Jesse.

    I tracked down your quote. Looks like you need a differential. Shipping is going to be a lot. It may be worth a drive for you. Take some of my other junk home too.
  9. Jesse Browning
    Yes. What are you looking for?

    It has the two arms, and the piano hinge.

    I have a windshield frame that needs some repair or filling inside the bottom track.
  12. Jesse Browning
    I have 2 of them. Condition unknown. Where are you located?

    If everything is adjusted right, and the linkage well oiled, it steers with very little pressure. On grass it steers harder. Asphalt is pretty good. Steering is unbelievably sensitive on snow, and quite a thrill.

    I have a set of those.

    That cover should have a felt seal on the bottom. It’s part of the heater duct for the rear compartment.

    BTW, we dont make seat backs. They dont look too complicated, and we toyed with the idea once, but moved on to other projects.

    The belts show up on ebay from time to time. You gotta do a lot of searching and hope you find them before another weasel addict.

    Where are you located Bryon? Ive got 2 final drives extra. You can have one if you come and get it.

    Search for one of the rock crawler forums or one of the suppliers. This is a very popular transmission among them, and lots of parts and info are available.

    Now the fun part of trying to install all the impossible to reach parts the engineers added after the vehicle was designed. 😆

    My experience with the fuel pumps is that the die-cast material is the weak point. Many parts are screwed to the die cast and the threads tend to rot away. Especially had trouble with the brush retaining screws coming out. I finally went with 1970s Cadillac fuel pump inside the original case and brackets. Works perfectly, and sounds exactly the same.

    Let me know before it gets too cold and I have to dig them out of the snow.
  23. Jesse Browning
    I have those parts in my junk pile if you are interested.
  24. Jesse Browning
    The answer is: I dont know. I dont have proof either way. Maybe that piece is in the background of a picture in one of the manuals.

    Looks great John. We had to do it a different way on our 2 floaters. We put the engine and capstan drive shaft in first, then the radiator and shroud. It may be impossible to connect the drive shaft to the engine once its installed. Theres just no room to get your hand in there. I hope it works for you.
