    1968 M416 fir sale in PA (south hills of Pittsburgh)

    The floor of the tub has a few holes in the front, but the rest is in great shape. I'm selling it because I currently have an M101 I'm resurrecting and the 416 won't do the job I need, due to the smaller size. Also, I need the room. More pics to come. I just wanted to get this on today. Thanks

    TUB WORK The tub has been media blasted and the issues have been exposed. There are a few areas that will need to be addressed, but for the most part it's in pretty good condition. My buddy has begun some patch work and adding reinforcement to the points that will be supporting the rack system...

    COMING TOGETHER - Finally The suspension has been completed with the final missing piece of the puzzle found, replacement shocks. Now for the electric....

    REBUILD ROADBLOCK The suspension came together without issue. But the "A" frame of the tongue was do tight that we are going to have to use 2 come-alongs to pull the ends apart maybe a 1/4" to allow the bolt holes to line up properly. But it feels good to begin the rebuild and even better...

    THE FRAME IS PAINTED & READY TO BE REASSEMBLED All components have been painted and are now protected from the elements. Premium Collision, in Bethel Park, did an awesome job with the prep, prime, and paint. They were the only body shop that was willing to take my project under the...

    My plan is to mount diamond plate to the right angle. The diamond plate will be bent toward the rear of the frame allowing room for the tires. I'm going to mount rubber from the diamond plate to hang down for full coverage.

    I measured the width of the rear axle of my JK and then subtracted 6" to accommodate the 3" spacers on both sides. The spacers cover the axle hub and allowed my AEV Pintler Hubcentric wheels, to be mounted properly. The end result should be that the trailer axle, spacers, and wheels setup is the...

    IT'S IN THE PAINT BOTH Well the frame and all fabrications to it are completed. I added right angles to extend out behind the wheels for mud flaps. It's now at the body shop being prepped for paint.
