If I'm not mistaken GM 10 bolt wheels have a different (smaller) lug pattern than the over the road lug patterm(larger) if you do indeed have a GM patterm.

You should be! Water is the biggest enemy of beacons. I would let the sun have at them before I ever coverd them up to hold moisture and condensation. The only reason to cover them up is if they were an illegal color (red/blue non leo or emergency vehicle. Polish the lenses 2x a year with a good...
A deuce going backward down a hill with no brakes, the engine off, the clutch pushed and transfer case and transmission in neutral should break the sound barrier provided the hill is high enough with many twisty and hair pin turns. Oh wait that woud be your bowels (sorry). The deuce would only...
Steel belted tires came from the minning industry not racing. The minning industry needed tougher tires for their wheeled equiptment. Steel belted radial tires did not finaly make it to racing until the 80's. The Arab oil embargo was just the excuse the politicians needed to lower the national...
To run an s10 type of system you would have to all crank position sensor, cam sensor, knock sensor, ambient air temp sensor. water temp sensor, map sensor and possibly mass air flow sensor depending on year. Also you would end up having a custom computer made and programed and the time to sort...
You will probably have to buy the whole rotator assembly. Years ago when I serviced the light bars for a local P.D. I could not get anyone to sell me just gears. Things may have changed by now but I doubt it with as cheap as they make things nowadays they are designed to just be thrown away. try...
Greywolf I cant believe you don't know where to put the key to start your deuce. That is deuce ownership 101. I encourage you to read the manuals but untill then someone needs to take that thing away from you before you kill someone provided you ever get it started again.
Setoyota they are...
I park my M35a2 where ever I want. Front of my house, in my shop, at my girlfriends house, various restraunts with large parking lots and even on a city street a time or 2 no one complains around here but I can feel them eyeing it up just waiting for winter when their stuck in the snow.

When Elmo was missing by any chance did he make it up to Indiana? Man we sure have a lot of baby possums running around and they all look suspiciously like him! :shock:

Your best bet would be to contact Mars directly. They were bought out by Trippe Light in the late 70's or early 80's. They were moved out of Chicago I think they are down south somewhere. Look on the interweb under train warning lights (what they specialized in). Mars candy bars used to be part...
Have you tried to clean the soot out of the exhaust system? My sister's brother had a 2 cycle motorcycle that the muffler plugged up on when he ran too much oil in the gas one time back in the 70's. He cleaned the ehaust and baffles with some stuff a neighbor gave him. Maybe you could get a...
You will have to look around but I believe there may be kits that could be adapted to work with your engine (Holly projection?). It will be a lot of work to adapt something to that engine and then to make it run right. Those engines by the design standards of today are mechanicly noisy which...
Candy cobalt blue over a silver base with 2 coats of violet pearl clear then 4 more coats of clear for the main body with black fenders.
Man it is your truck you should do what ever makes you happy. Your the one who has to look at it everyday and drive it. Who cares what anyone else thinks, does...
Hndrsonj,
With all due respect I got my information in 1988 when I was up at the GM Tech Center in Hinsdale Ill. from a AM General engineer I happened to have lunch with. AM G watched the lessons with the jeeps and was determined not to do what jeep did. You can not sell a new $50,000 vehicle...
If Uncle Suggar sold the HMMWV's to the public then AM General (later Hummer) would have never been able to sell them to the general public because the market would be flooded with them. AM learned this lesson from Willys and Kiaser with the jeep. Had the jeeps never been surplussed out more new...
Save all of your receipts!!!! Even if you buy a part from a buddy. If some one gives you a part, you buy nuts and bolts everything. You will have to show where everything came from. I had an engine and transmission laying around and used it in a project and got he11 for not having a receipt, I...
When you do find that seat cushon it will probably have to be washed anyway. :shock: That is one of my biggest fears when I drive my truck, loosing a front tire. I'm glad you all are ok.
