1977 J-24 Mitsubishi Hudson, NH **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: CJ-3B • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: Blaine reports this sold for $6800.

Blaine shared this J-24 that’s being auctioned on Bring a Trailer. It appears solid, but has enough dings to make it a practical little work vehicle. Current high bid is $5750. This ends early Friday morning. The vehicle is untitled.

https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1977-mitsubishi-jeep-3/

“Various Jeep models based on the CJ-3B body style were produced and built by Mitsubishi in Japan under license from Willys between 1973 and 1997. Rust repairs were reportedly carried out before the exterior of this example was covered in a black spray-on bedliner material, and the pickup conversion included the addition of wood side stakes as well as planks along the B-pillars. Inward-facing bench seats are also present in the bed, and additional exterior details include a Mitsubishi logo above the seven-slot grille, a pintle hitch, and a tan soft top in addition to fender-mounted side mirrors and indicators. Corrosion is visible near the right side step and tailgate hinge.”

M-18 Warn Hub Dash Sticker

• CATEGORIES: Features • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Josh is looking for a reproduction of the rare orange Warn dash sticker below, though his original one (damaged in a fire) was blue

Does anyone know of any reproductions or even a quality image that he could get reproduced? Josh explains things below ….

warn-dash-sitcker-m16-hubs

The blue one below is apparently similar, but, like the one above, his did not include a reference to “Warn MFG CO” at the bottom).

These are examples of M16 hubs (he has M18 hubs).

warn-dash-sitcker

Josh wrote: “I’m hoping you might have run across a locking hub dash sticker like the one attached at some point. My 1956 GMC NAPCO 4×4 had WARN model WL-15828 hubs, which are more commonly referred to as M18’s. My truck had a dash sticker ( actually it was inside the glovebox door ) that was identical to the orange image I attached [ed note … the image at top], except that it was printed in a medium blue color. I believe this type of sticker to be the predecessor to the more commonly seen type with the illustration of the WARN style locking dial. This particular sticker that I’ve attached a picture of was in an NOS set of hubs for a heavy duty IHC that was dated from 1956 or 57, as I recall.

Anyway, I’m hoping someone has this sticker and I can get it reproduced. I believe it to be the correct sticker for any WARN model hubs that predate the addition of the raised stamped area where the “M” series model number is typically stamped. That was added some time around 1965 or 1966 as best I can tell. As an example, I’ve attached a picture of  what are typically referred to as M16 hubs, also a late 50’s NAPCO 1/2 ton application, but the one without the raised stamp area would have been stocked under the part number WL-54-21 originally.

My truck was severely damaged in a forest fire. Otherwise I’d go scan my own sticker and get it reproduced. Eventally I’d like to resurrect my truck, and this is a detail I want to be faithful to.”

Tour Jeep Bed Removed II

• CATEGORIES: Features • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

The tour jeep bed is now on rollers so I can moved it around. In the meantime, I drove the chassis outside so I could blow off the dust (a little chilly for washing it just yet).

Looking more closely at the transfercase, the tag on it has been removed, but it looks to me to be an NP 207, but I’ve never worked on these, so I could say for sure. After doing some research online, I see one challenge to making the 207 usable is that there isn’t a cable setup for shifting being offered as an option.

Moreover, some forums suggest the 207 is pretty weak and the 231 is a better option (for which there is a cable option). However, most likely any cable option will have to be a custom install anyway, as the cable length will need to be long enough to reach the cab area. Anyone have thoughts on this? Is the 207 good enough? if in 4WD low range is the 207 strong enough to deal with the weight of real trail jeeping?

Idaho Parks Wagon Poster $15.95

• CATEGORIES: Features • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Richard pointed out that Idaho Parks still has copies of its wagon poster for sale. We first ran across this poster back in 2015 at a gift shop outside the City of Rock State Park in southwestern, Idaho. It’s a neat little place to visit if you have time to make a detour. At the time, you could also head south from there and enter Utah along dirt roads, then drive south until the dirt roads reach the original Transcontinental railroad grades. It was a fun excursion: http://www.ewillys.com/2015/04/14/day-2-mon-apr-13th-rocks-trcks-dusty-roads/.

Removed the FC Tour Bed

• CATEGORIES: Features • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Only a couple updates this morning, as I spent all of Friday building a framework to remove the FC’s bed. Unfortunately, my tractor isn’t quite bit enough to lift the bed, so I had to develop an alternative strategy. The framework is mostly made from wood that was formerly a dove coop, so it’s nice to put it to some use after storing it for a couple years.

Of course, the plan went sideways when the FC wouldn’t start. I eventually figured out that the electric fuel pump had stopped working. Once replaced, the jeep started right up (didn’t really want to push the FC around).

With the bed off, I will start with working on the FC’s mechanicals. For example, the transfercase low range was never connected, so that is something I need to address. In addition, some working needs completion and the brakes and break pedal need some attention.

Here are a few photos:
