    FDC Bypass Hose Question

    For some reason I was under the impression that I had two sizes of fuel lines around my secondary filters, but now i find that I have three. The 1/4" lines from my return, the 3/8" off my secondaries, and the as of yet unknown size that is connecting my secondaries to the bottom of the IP. Is...

    WHO' S A FULL TIME LMTV OVERLANDER, ANY OUT THERE?

    Never "downgraded" to an LMTV 😆 but have been nomading/overlanding for about 15(+-) years in this rig and have a total of 43 years since I moved into my first rig. The trailer combo is an S-448 shelter sitting on an M-796 bolster trailer. The shelter is removable and trailer can be used to haul...

    G177 tire swap on a M35A2

    What do you mean by "spacers"? The G177s are tires that fit on the stock deuce rims. That means that they need everything that the stock NDTs nedded, tube and flap liner (forget what its really called). The tubes will be sized for the tires, so 11-20s and you can probably get them from any...

    Gear Fluid Life Longevity and Brake [Wheel] Cylinder Rubber Longevity [2-Fold Question]

    Haven't been around the site for a while but still riding the lil Draggin around the western side of the country. If you're still in Tucs I'm just recently back in town for a bit and working on my truck. I've spent years working on my truck in the dirt, not sure I'd know what to do w/ a hard...

    Front main seal replacement

    Thanks, but think we might be talking about different seals. I'm going to be replacing the front engine seal, the one around the crank.

    Front main seal replacement

    I'm getting ready to replace my leaking front seal and I'm wondering if the pullers referred to in the TM are available as loaner tools from some place like Napa, or are they specialized tools for this motor? And of course, any tips?

    M146 landing gear crank handle

    Wow! Nobody knows anything? Not what I'm used to on here. Did all the old standbys of knowledge leave?

    M146 landing gear crank handle

    Has anyone had to replace their crank handle and have a source? Have a trailer that is missing both of them so I can't even do a match up. A civi one would be fine.

    Uses for Deuces

    M37M35 - I see that some times you leave the crane out on top of the load and not folded up, is there a reason?

    Uses for Deuces

    I was sure I wanted that setup for awhile now, but now I'm super sure! You can stop at any time now, . . . you're killing me. [emoji6][emoji23][emoji23]

    Uses for Deuces

    M37M35 - Nice truck! I see that you have a 5th wheel in some of the pics and a flatbed in others, did you change it at some point? The knuckle boom/ 5th wheel is the other combo I'm wanting in the future.

    Cold start Ether kit vs Intake heater

    I agree that running diesel these trucks start easy, I don't run diesel. W/ freezing, or near freezing temps, and 100% waste motor oil I usually need something for the initial start. If I'm in those temps very long I cut the wmo w/ some gas and then I'm back to easy starts. It also helps w/...

    Did have a Deuce down, Southern Arizona

    DavidWymore - great idea, that's where my thoughts went and where a got the tow bar to use. Great minds think alike. ;-] Monatillou - good plan, . . . but wait, I travel these routes to be farther away from the "more populated" areas. ;-p Flyingvan911 - but you have a flying emergency van...
