Googling the pump "PSB-6A pump" and hitting shopping brings out about 5 pumps, with ranges from $600 for Gvt. rebuild, to $1200 NEW. So $2200 is really interesting, pocket $1000 just for ordering one for someone? V/R W Winget

While your at it replace (or check) the lower radiator hose. It swells and rubs the crank damper which then cuts through and bursts under pressure at the worst time.... This is replaced with a Ford F250 or F350 460CI upper radiator hose trimmed down about 2" in length. Can't tell you the year...

Not bragging but I pull started a Deuce with my gas 460ci Ford F350 with automatic so I don't see the big deal there for a Duramax to do what a well used truck can easily do. I even had 430 ratios in it for increased road speed which drops the capability of hauling greatly, so what would be the...

5t Gun Truck "Eve of Destruction" in the Fort Eustis Transpotation Museum in Newport News Va. was specifically brought back for placement in the TC Corp museum around '72 or so from memory. More info's used to be at their TC Museum site: museum V/R W Winget

I'm partial to OD Green Nylon Parachute matierial. Really easy to sew, and rip stop to boot. Nothing like the feel of it on naked skin... Of course only Airborne folk may understand. V/R W. Winget

My Guess: Cargo container tiedown pins that you insert a pin through once the container or CONEX has been placed on the bed of a trailer. Not for the trucks bed, but something they towed along as part of their units TOE. V/R W. Winget

If I am correct, the dual CUCV's are 12 volters rigged to provide 24 volts, and the CUCV uses 12 and 24 volt components so you may find some parts from an old one that would assist in wiring up something different. I think the body group is 24V and the engine components are 12V from what I...

Putting the negative of your 12 volt to the negative 'grounded' 24 volt set, and the + positive 12 volt to the + grounded battery positive WILL give you 12 volts. Only deficiency is your batteries will not be charging evenly when you turn on that 12 volt load. I ran a HUMVEE 2 years in the...

For my Money, start their M60A3 with about two hours work and move it with the my tank towbar.... I know for a fact it was not demilled as it's a War memorial museum and didn't fall under the problems presented 'before' the nut in San Diego went on a ride. WAW

I'm fairly certain the tracks are not trackpin type like a Bradley or M113, so lube and a BFH are good recommendations 9lube wouldn't help with rubber inserts and pins on the other track) Surface will be paved asphalt adn concrete transitioning to grass (once rolling should be fine) I'm thinking...

I'm considering winching to break it free, but then it has to go around a corner, up a slight incline and across a former baseball field, so I'd have to move the truck about ten -fifteen times if I doubled the winch cable, etc. for the angles and all. (not that I wouldn't) One point of concern...

Oh, just a story along these lines, I had a German Friend with a MB jeep in Germany... Once we were in Kiaserslauten at a rally riding around the ranges and saw an old German Maurder (Spelling) or French APC tracked vehicle that had been parked on a slight incline. For Fun I told him to back up...

What was it Scotty said when told something the Enterprise did couldn't be done according to the manual "Laddie, She never learned to read" or something like that.... I'll surely surpass that, and I know the manual is talking about 'safely' towing a load down, maybe down a flat road...

Ok, the donated M543A3 is about to earn it's keep working for the local War memorial museum. They have a Prototype 155 SPG based on the old M48 Chassis components, so I can assume it's pushing 50 Tons with turret and gun. Been sitting in the same place for the last 35 years since it 'rolled' in...

So would a civilian HUMMER painted dark green be objectionable? If I had one I'd sure loan it to you to park there for a few weeks to see if it gets a ticket, then challenge them in Court for harrassment, as it was never a military vehicle. I could see them possibly banning parking on the...

Scout car tires and rims are worth a lot as well. I'd grab it if you had the time to deal with it, or let someone know where it was on the G503 forum if you did not want to deal with it. Plenty of time to restore VS part it out, as there's NO more Wheeled Armored vehicles you can park in your...

Perhaps: Put a pallet down to stick the drip pan on, easier than bending down to crawl under there, etc for a guy riding a forklift. Then he only has to remove the pallet as he's riding by later... WAW

Look at the Vintage Power Wagons parts list, it shows which of the series interchange with what if you study the details. Hate to say this most I ever fitted in the Command Car was 5 (seated) and a child where the shifter was. No 'adjustment' under your front seat, the Spring rate was for a...

WILCO on the grill guard. But then again they are stillin the mulling stage. I'd really HATE to restore it to the 80's, as you (they could) can go down to DRMO and draw a nice clean one out and put it on display a LOT easier than stripping this old girl down and repainting... Nice Web Site you...

Potential trade option Well just like a woman...They now think it may be better to paint it up as mid 80's three color. I'm not rulling out a trade for parts though, your Deuce is MUCH better than what they are starting with, so you would REALLY want to keep your nice winch model. V/R W. Winget
