CAUTION ! You may find it hard to believe the following confirmation.

" ATTENTION " all Hurricane owners ..... the mother load of XXX has been discovered.

Large (did I say LARGE ?) quantities of XXX are to be expected.


I'm currently in the process of identifing the XXX in full detail.
XXX will certainly meet OEM and possibly NOS classifications.
More XXX detail to be disclosed as the situation developes.

If it involves a governor and F head governor parts count me in

If it involves a few new YF carburetors count me in

If it involves some F head T98a parts count me in

It's just my luck that something good is going to happen to me today.

Jyotin,
Not related to the XXX motherload but I do have a few OEM Borg Warner stock from the 1950's.
I'm sure that I have the large (1st gear) bronze T98 blocking rings and may have some other parts as well.
Send me a P.M. or an email if your looking for something special.

I already left a few clues in my previous postings.
I have already inspected 1 XXX and soon expect 3 more unopened boxes of XXX to arrive for the requested posative identification and to also determine exact condition via internal inspections.

I may not need it but it's too tempting not to be in on the offering . Would it be original T-90s and /or transfer cases or overdrives or PTO'S?

I have to admit: I was scared when I first saw the title of the topic. Thought for a second we were hit by spammers until I saw that it was Ken who wrote it!!

I'll guess NOS Hurricane engine parts - since I'm just past the point of needing them for the rebuild LOL!!

Yes, in fact the XXX assemblies are specifically intended for use with Willys Hurricane engines.

I guess we'll have to wait to see if it's a thing-a-ma-jig or a whatcha-ma-call-it.

since it is stated that they are "assemblies" i am going to guess that the xxx is either airfilter assemblies, oil filter assemblies, fuel filter, or maybe some old mothballed weber carburetors.

so i am going to guess........hurricane superchargers :lol:
53 3b, early cj5 frame (hurricane),2.43 ratio t case 26 tooth with 1 1/4" case (my own creation), late 60's c5 ross steering box, all range od, parts from a welder generator, and parts from about 9 different jeeps and counting. my every last penny and ounce of patients creates what we call the FrAnken B, the jeep that never was
