I am about to make a small production run of the threaded flanges that are welded into the bottom of the hull of the GPA. This is the large flange that the drain plugs screw into. Please send me an Email if you would like some. Normal there are 5 per vehicle, but if you want to fit them to the bow o...

Hi Leo,
The black paint is just primer after sand blasting.

The dealer in Australia has a few of the steering arms if you need one.
I have the spring settings if you need a copy of this.

Hi David, You are doing some great work to your hull. I am not far behind you and I have similar repairs to do to the rear of my hull.

The rear axle is finished and the front axle is close. I am at last fitting some of the parts I have made for others to my new GPA. Li...

Hi Tony, After swimming my GPA I would check the diffs had no water mixed in with the oil. If in dought change the oil. It is wise to check the wheel bearings. Do this by sliding out the rear axles and checking for water droplets. If there is no sign, no need to dismantel further. If there is water,...

Hi, Well work is progressing on the hull. I have had to replace the reinforcing panel that holds up the floor pan. This proved to be a fun job un doing all those spot welds. And even more fun drawing the panel and making it. http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f58/richardfs/Jeep%20album/156_5616.jpg T...
