Transport Motor Company (TMC) Hydraulic Lift Document

January 23, 2024 • CATEGORIES: Documents, Features • TAGS: bed-extension. This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

We’ve discussed the Transport Motor Company, out of California, a few times. Clint reminded me that Farmjeep.com published a wonderful overview document of the TMC Farm and Industrial Equipment. Clint added his thoughts about the equipment in a comment at the bottom of this post.

Here is the full document: https://www.farmjeep.com/lifts/other-hydraulic-lifts/transport-motor-company-tmc-hydraulic-lift/

What caught my eye was TMCs body extension, a full-width body extension that attached to the back of vintage jeeps. I’ve documented the extension several times, but didn’t know what company made it. It turns out, some of those full-body extensions are from TMC. (here is my compendium of document 1/4 extensions)

The February 1960 Jeep Service and Parts News is another four-pager. One item on page three that caught my eye was FC-170 frame re-inforcement that became effective with 61568-17824 and 61568-13-10417. Prior to that, a May 1959 (I don’t have) issued announced a kit that was available for frame reinforcement.

Relatively rare, 7000 built of 70,000 CJ5s built over 4 year period. Unique enough to have a dedicated parts list and shop manual.

Sold as “a new kind of sports car”.
It is a CJ5, 4 wheel drive, but with various unique features such as:
1.Chrome trim and bumpers
2. Bendix servo brakes, much larger than standard
3. Single lever transfer case
4. Column shift
5. 2/3, 1/3 split seat
6. Alternator

It is an interesting, fun vehicle, in my wife’s family since new. It deserves to be restored”

Nothing a little paint can’t cover up 😂. Also needs seats, I have a back seat but need front seats.. also have a hard top for it.. I hate to sell it but things got bad for me real quick and need the money.. I’m asking $4000- and probably won’t go down from that price. May be open to trade. Lmk. What u have. Please no junk.

(12/12/2023) This has a variety of updates. Note the unusual u-bolt plates on the back of this build. My guess is that this is any upside down ‘box’ design to protect then u-bolt nuts from being damaged on trails.
