No work on the 25 this weekend..........put it to work instead. About 1/4 of the wood in and only one broken shear pin on the PTO.

Jim why don't drill the shear pin hole out and put a 1/4" case hardened bolt that wouldn't break that way I'll know what is the next weakest link, the PTO unit or the winch

That is a cool looking rig. Always liked that one. 
I guess I'll go play in the 45 forum for awhile.

I was thinking of doing that, then welding the yoke to the shaft of the winch. If I get the PTO box recast in ductile, then it would be those pesky u-joints.............
No more broken shear pins!
A little heavy but I think this will work out just fine. Garwood 30K double capstan........................never too much winch.

Doh! You got me there! I was thinking about spy photos of LITP John's place, all those camo car covershave me thinking impure thoughts, and I have some parts for him...he's just got me on ignore right now...
Make CM08 the year of the 25! I WILL have something done, Krusty should be done...let's plan an invasion of skinny tires!

That's got possibilities, should be a lot less drama here next year, and the girls have been hinting about a road trip.
You going to have a running 25, or will we need to borrow a couple from John #1? 
I'm driving the 25 through my one light downtown tonight and some high school punks tailgating me in their mom's Sable yelled at me to: "Get a new Jeep!"

I'm thinking CM08 would be a great time for a large parts exchange. Maybe our leader should start a new tread with a sticky. Don't forget to include the early 40s too. This would force me to get the axles with the torsen installed switch to the white. So 2008 it is.

I'll ask that if anyone goes up to look at it to take some pics. The description didn't scream out "road trip" to me.
I'll bring my rusty stuff, you bring your rust free stuff.
CM08 does sound good though.

I don't know about rust free, I've been salting and watering them so they would match:whoops: Besides I think there is a new law against exporting rust free parts from the southwest to the rust belt

Some guys wives bring wrecked 80's home as projects.........................mine brings home 100 year old chests. A little welding, a little grinding, acid wash, some upholstery left and it'll be good as new.

That's a really nice chest, but I like the newer ones. John#3Some guys wives bring wrecked 80's home as projects.........................mine brings home 100 year old chests. A little welding, a little grinding, acid wash, some upholstery left and it'll be good as new.
In that case, I like the newer ones too...................
I just noticed that the 25 Owners Group passed it's two year mark a month ago...there must be some important statistics to note, like about 40 hits a day , just wanted to say thanks again to Woody and He Who Shall Remain Greenstarless....I've had a blast!
