Done the way it should be, I made a simple press tool to put the kink in the axle/pipe clips, it takes only a few minutes but gives a consistent result, but few people have the patience to make a good job like you have here, I am sure they think "it is only a Jeep".
Scott , at 4:27 in the vid (to the left of your pinky), there's a bolt that Looks like it goes in on an angle and looks like it's welded over . .......What the heck is that ?
Hello, I am hoping you can help me. I have a 1943 GPW Jeep and love watching your videos. I know that The MB and GPW require special fluids, as in, Trans/Transfer = Mineral Gear Oil, and the steering box requires = SAE 140. Is there special requirements for brake fluid and can you use high grade synthetic motor oil on the engine? Thanks for your help in advance. Bob
I will say this, I have a friend who is a heavy equipment mechanic. He said he runs the high grade synthetic with no issues in many of his vintage vehicles, including a CJ-2A. My opinion is to stay with the heavy duty Dot 4.
LOVE the idea about the "loop" in the axle clamp !! More an Observation than a criticism BUT I'm REALLY surprised you didn't paint the lines ! Those darn things rust if you look at them wrong ! and YOU usually paint EVERYTHING ! LOL any reason why you did NOT paint them ?
Thanks for all the great videos. Huge help in restoring my 1944 MB. THANKS
Scott you are the Best jeep teatcher

Frank Porfidio I believe you are referring to the stop on the axle, it limits the travel of the steering knuckles.
OK so something not to mess with , RIGHT ?
