For the death wobble, my problem ended when I rebuilt my bell crank and drag assembly.

I've had my jeep down to nuts, bolts and frame. With that being said, I'm pretty confident in my jeep and it is pretty smooth rolling. This is by no means my daily driver but I do need to drive 55 to ... |

I just want to say WOW. What a difference that makes. I bought a new one from Herm as a complete kit with shifter and linkage. I did have to heat the shifter and bend it slightly away from the dash ... |

Here is a view of how close the overdrive is to the floor and how much the line would have to be bent to go around the overdrive.

I know it was not original but so nice to have.
After years of waiting, I finally purchased a new OD from Herm and got it installed last week. He accidentally sent me the wrong shift linkage so I ... |

I'm not very familiar with the M38 but if it's the same as the M38A1, just jack the jeep up high enough and you can drop the bellhousing, trany, transfer and shifters right out the bottom after you un ... |

Looks like I kept most of it in my email. I didn't write down the gauge but I think it was 26 and is plenty strong. I have 12 pics which are of old torn out boxes and 2 hand drawings that have measu ... |

Chris,
I had no luck finding a box anywhere and I didn't even have one to replicate. Thanks to Wes, for sending me a set of pictures with dimensions, I was able to fabricate one of my own. I had no ... |

Banging noise solved.

Should it only have one-dimensional bends (the zig-zag). Mine appears to have a slight bow in it also. Is it bent or should it be this way? I am about to re-assemble it along with a bell crank kit ... |

Took my first drive on the road last weekend and it was a blast. But I kept hearing a banging noise up front and couldn't figure it out until I got back to the house.
My hood hinges don't seem to be ... |

Yep Paul,
That's the same place I got mine from. Had to buy a whole box of 25 of them but it was only like $4 plus shipping. I also bought the screws (allen head) for the bottom of the windshiel ... |
