    Deuce Sleeper?

    I have my s-250 strapped down in the back of the deuce. I did it for the hurricane, in case I had to leave. I figured it is a good place for valuables. Let me go get some pics.

    Starting without glow plugs?

    The glow plug card sends the ground to the relay. Pull the card, then determine which small terminal is hot, then ground the other one for 10 seconds and see if it starts. Good luck. I'm not a fan of starting fluid, too many problems. Edit. Man i'm slow at typing.

    My First MEP-002 w/ASK & M200A1 trailer

    The nicest part of these trailers is you can see them while backing up by yourself, in a deuce that is. I mounted my 002a and a 40ft crankup tower to one for that sole reason.

    Gilbert 2012 Want/Bring/looking for list

    Anybody have any 16x16 vinyl tent frames? Or perhaps a 16x20 temper tent frame? I can bring HMMWV troop seats, the ones for the 2 door trucks. Thanks.

    Salvage yard on eastern shore

    Oh crap, I did miss jeep week :doh:auaauaaua. I will call and check it out. I remember their other yard in Hurlock was full of deuces. I bet they are all crushed by now also. :( Thanks

    Iraq takes delivery of final M1A1 tanks

    Funny we were talking about this at work the other day. I was told these A1's are an export version that doesn't have all the up to date bells and whistles. Hopefully that is the case.

    is that a bug out truck

    Not so much the trucks as the bug out vehicle, but they signify my house as a bug in site.

    A.s.k.

    I just back the 116 trailer into the detached garage. Its good for noise and bad weather. I hook 1 end the 12 in duct from my 400k btu heater to the cooling air input and the other end is outside under the garage door which I keep 1/4 open. I ran it for 4 hours with a load of 75% with no...

    TEOTWAWKI :whistle: On a serious note, I have yet have a condition code be anywhere near close.

    Its not a 350 diesel!

    Yup. I tell them the 5.7 vs 6.2 difference and that usually shuts them up. Its kinda funny the first 10 times but it has lost its humor now. On a separate note I just saw Dogheads "posted from my cable tv remote" Sig line, I just spit soda everywhere.:razz:

    mep-002a hi rpm problem

    Is the throttle linkage stuck? Or the hand throttle all the way out? Or the governor spring set incorrectly?

    Massive oil leak....

    IP is Injector pump. There is an oil line between it and the block, it is a pita to get to. Look up at it from the underside driver side and you will get a better view. Your best friend is going to be the manuals, its alot of info to sort through.

    Massive oil leak....

    Check the oil lines going from the block to the ip. I lost 1 and had oil everywhere from the front to rear bumper.

    M200a1+Mep-002a+40ft crank up tower.

    NEIOWA, I know there is a mark up, but they are still darn spendy. I only deal with Grainger with work, well through GSA...the ****ed dumbass middleman. Luckily all 3 worked and still do.

    Sheared bolts on generator

    Yes, on equipment designed for paralleling there is a device called a reverse power relay that will open if it sees back feeding, I think its about 5%. This prevents the generator from becoming a motor.

    M200a1+Mep-002a+40ft crank up tower.

    I will have to drill four new holes in the trailer when I get the gen situated but thats easy. The lights are 1000 watt metal halide. I have not had the need for more than 1 on at a time. When I get this done I will put all three up and see what it looks like, and I will take pics. Oh the...

    Aswayze, looking good. I like the Saic computer. I use one to program the old spectra radios as they require dos.

    M200a1+Mep-002a+40ft crank up tower.

    I took all of the gear off my M762 light tower trailer and I'm mounting it to the M200a1. Here is a pic of 1 light with the tower lowered. It has 3 lights total, but I would make enemy's 3 county's away if I turned them all on.:-D As for the generator, 2 bolt holes line up in its current spot...

    M200a1+Mep-002a+40ft crank up tower.

    At this point I think i'm gonna use it to pull my Polaris MV7 around. I need a quad trailer and it has the top and nice tiedowns so it fits the bill.
