My 416 has always been missing the cap on the steering wheel so I decided to fix that little issue with some aluminum plate and my favorite CNC mill.

Alright, my mog has been trouble free for years, and of course when I go to
sell it, gives me issues (I guess it's telling me something).
I tried to start my mog last weekend, and it went 'click' when I hit the
starter. Did not turn over, sounded like low battery to me. Long story
short, ended up charging batteries, same issue, and ended up going out and
getting a few new batteries thinking maybe the old walmart batteries were
shot, and still, same story.
List,
I have two military, towable aggregate spreaders for sale. This is the

Asking $950 each. Photos available. Email me off list. Located in Wall,
NJ. Delivery available.

Last night I went down to Jay Couch's place and picked up my 404 that
has been chilling its heels down at his place. It needed some TLC to
replace several broken bits, but now it's home. It has some
electrical wonkiness that I need to fix before I drive her too much,
but I could not resist today, so I fired her up, got her all nice and
warm, and took her for a spin around "town" (a few blocks of dirt
roads with about a dozen buildings).
Mmmm.
Hi guys-
One more question here. I had a 'pie pan' tailgate with the typical latch /
hasp, but the new one has a swing over lever thing. It doesn't appear that
this will latch to my existing pie pan side boards. Is this true? I can
modify my new tailgate, but if this lever thing will work, I would rather
spend the time on something else! Take care,

Hi guys-
I'm putting my track bar, drop arm and steering (gear) box back on. Does
anyone know what the torque values should be? I imaging the steering gear
is high as it takes a 1 5/8" socket! Also, any good ideas on how to keep
the steering gear 'bolt' (with funny head) from rotating? Please email me
direct as I'm on digest. Thanks,

Question to the U1300 Krankenwagon owners,
Could one of you explain how the box heater works on the 80's models
U1300 ambulance box?
Does it have a thermostat control?---Is it 24volt electric/diesel fired?
---How loud are they? --What brand are they?
How much fuel do they consume? Where do they pull their fuel from?

I stopped in at my local bodyshop today, and a friend there gave me a

The Magazine appears to be Canadian only:

If I had a scanner I'd scan it and post it but alas, I don't.
If anyone can get there hands on it its a decent read, with some good
pictures, not sure how accurate the in
