I have an unused MileMarker hydraulic, I think it is 8000lb, might be 9000lb. Comes with new cable and roller fair-lead and some plumbing (may or may not fit your pump).
Bought it on eBay; a shop attempted to mount it for a customer, stripped a thread on the base, and then customer changed their mind - or some similar story...
I was going to save it to mount under the rear of the 80. But have too many "one day" projects, so if I can get my $ back; I'll sell it.
I'm out of town until Sunday night; will look for it and figure out my costs early next week.

Broke out the glue gun, my best friend the zip disk and made some new wheelwells.
All those fresh air vents would've helped clear out the poutine fumes...
Looking good tho, hoping for a 2012maiden voyage date?

its not the poutine fumes i'm worried about, its the blue smoke and fumes from that 3B when it fires up!! As far as mayden voyage goes, i might try the milk crate drivers seat next time i'm home. Got a couple more holes to fill yet and done with the body work shyte type stuff. Next up is the fuel system, electrical and drive shafts...

on that mayden voyage note, we should have a little doer at the rez-fab-chop-shop, get the crew together and put the hurt on some luckys.
mmmm. lucky....
Sounds good. Mootard should be mobile again after tomorrow, finally got some parts yesterday.
Was off last week, and was at home on foot...probably a good thing tho, I was too lazy to walk to the beer store

Milemarker hydraulic 9000 lb
.
.New 9000 lb hydraulic winch, with line and hook, fair-lead, remote, remote-mount valve, and assorted hoses and fittings. I assume it works, but have never got around to mounting it. Model 151-2600. I was told that it has a stripped thread on the base.

BJ70 harness, hybrid steering BJ70/4Runner fits just perfectly. We'll see how it adapts to the steering box next i guess.
moving right along now... looking good... looks like my 40 will be done in the next 5 fridays... so if you need an extra hand let me know..

Not sure yet, i'd like to find one from an industrial application that i work with and make it fit. I'll see when i'm back at work.
s*** yeah, i'll have a pile of little things that'll need to be done and an extra set of eyes cause i'll probably forget to bolt something togethter, needs to be welded etc...
Dan... You should take Adam up on his offer. He doesn't drink and refuses beer for payment! His skills are great and I bet he works harder than any other Cruiser head, stick burning idiots you may know.

LOL, yup i have no doubt that he has the skills(i'll make sure my little glue gun is there). I'm thinking we should have a little round-up at the shop, bbq and beers next time i'm back before you head north like some of us poor saps... Flyinglow said he'd pick the potato up on his way through and down to Vic. Maybe we should break out the bender and get some armour on that thing while were at it.
