From: Lodelane@aol.com Date: Thu, 7 Aug 1997 08:08:17 -0400 (EDT) Subject: Re: UK-US shipping For what its worth, I saw an article in the 4 July Baltimore (MD) Sun. "For the first time, shippers have a consoldiation service that moves cargo directly between Britain and Baltimore without stopping at other ports. The service was launched recently by Samuel Shapiro and Co., a Baltimore based freight forwarder and customs broker that acts as a travel agent for cargo. Sailing from Liverpool (LR Supermarket???) every Saturday and arriving in Baltimore 13 days later, the service cuts transit times by two to three days." "...used by shippers who need to move goods, but don't have enough to fill an entire 20 or 40 foot container..." "...consolidated shippers, such as Shapiro, which puts together cargo from different shippers bound for the same destination and secures a better rate from the steamship line." Haven't checked them out yet. Maybe someone in the area (Quintin???) has dealt with them, or knows someone who has. At least this would get the cargo into the US cheaper than FEDEX, UPS, or dealing with a bulk shipper.

From: AKBLACKLEY@aol.com Date: Thu, 7 Aug 1997 08:34:23 -0400 (EDT) Subject: Sportsmans Guide ex-Brit.Mil.Stuff I mentioned this catalog the other day and lo and behold one arrives in the mail. Some items of interest to the Lists might be: H7-17676 British Military Water Container......$9.97 (black, 5 gal.,marked "WATER") H7-23737 Used British J**p Shovel....$9.97 H7-23738 Used British J**p Pick.......$14.97 Both for $ 19.97. These come either in OD or natural, no choice it says. These items have been discussed previously. I bought the same from US Calvary last year. They appeared to have been removed from MOD vehicles (j**p indeed!) at some point. Again the usual disclaimers apply. The catalog is #23730. Couldnt find the catalog with the jerry cans tho'. My wife has a habit of throwing these things away before I can waste too much of the childrens college funds. The horse has been out of the barn since I've owned a Land Rover, though :>) .

I guess there is no avoiding crossing the Rockies which will certainly add time to people coming from the west. There are plenty of ski slopes in Colo, come to think of it, there is even one here in Nebraska believe it or not.

From: CIrvin1258@aol.com Date: Thu, 7 Aug 1997 12:43:00 -0400 (EDT) Subject: Re: UK-US shipping Guys...(and Gals) ANY freight forwarder, can send "freight consolidations" to any point on Earth! Doesn't matter if it's non-stop, or not. The problem with consolidations, is that sometimes, the forwarder does not load the entire shipment into one container (at least, this is a BIG problem in the airline business), and things tend to get left behind. Don't go with the first company you find - DEFINATELY look around, and get prices from different companies, and it doesn't matter how big, or how small the forwarder is, with regards to how good they are, or how much they suck! I deal with big companies that suck, and small companies that suck. Also, when a shipment is send as a consol, there are usually breakdown fees, and house-waybill fees - usually an additional $20.00 each in the airline industry, but MAY be less if going with ocean freight. So, while UPS is good with getting the smaller boxes here, ocean freight would be the way to go, when you order a new tropical roof for a 109.

From: "Jim Holmes" <jrh@hooked.net> Subject: Rear Driveshaft Nuts Date: Thu, 7 Aug 1997 11:40:54 -0700 Whats the collective wisdom on how best to remove the nuts that secure the rear driveshaft flange to the transmission brake? I tried a socket and spanner, but the u-joint interfered with both. I was able to undo mine only because they were barely fingertight, and appeared ready to fall off.

Date: Thu, 7 Aug 1997 21:33:43 +0200 From: lopezba@atnet.at Subject: Rear Propshaft Thanks to everybody who replied. On the S I, these are definitely captive bolts. To remove them, I would have to partially strip the transfer box (no way!). I found out by careful study of the studs/bolts, and mainly by finding the right picture in the parts catalogue. I had to grind three of the four nuts in the back off, btw, while the front nuts came off much too easy. Removed the rear axle today, which is not easy without a helper and without an engine crane. Now I have to clean it and paint it - that should be a lot of fun ;>).

The problem is, the old PAPs are from WW2 and have a special aluminiumcompound. You can also get new ones, but they are not so good. If you are interested, I can look for email adresses from german expedition suppliers, where you can get them. A friend of mine has a few for sale too, but they have different lengths (original they are 3m long, usually they are cut in two halfs), so his price is per centimeters. If you buy some PAPs, pay attention there are two different hole patterns available (Important if you want to store them).

Brian,
| Please send me the below mentioned e-mail address.
Try http://www.daerr.de/ . They are a well sorted expedition
outfitter here in Munich. For my taste they are a bit expensive,
but asking is free, as we say here.
Lauche und Maas http://www.lauche-maas.com/ in Munich used to carry
PAPs, too, but I don't know if they still do. May be worth a try.
They are more a trecking gear shop than a vehical outfitter, although
they are said to be good.
Usual disclaimers. Didn't deal with any of them, nor get paid by them.
BTW. if you have problems with their German www-pages just ask me.
(Sandladders/PAPs = Sandbleche for the first start).
Hope this helps,
Franz
