I wondered this too, but it's stayed on the back burner. Mine are bypassed and the PO put fuses in place of them. I only have one left.

Take lots of pictures!

It might be best to remove the head to physically observe the cylinders.

TM America I agree with your last post there. If he isn't looking for a 6x6, then a modified 4x4 w/ 2.5t axles would be better than a bobber. A 3/4 ton diesel 4x4 pickup, remove old axles and install Deuce axles. Get wheels and tires to fit your plans (46"ers probably). C&C - That's why...

Or it could be loosening. Don't be offended, but are you loosening it (turning counter clockwise)?

Pull the head off, that'll let you know if you really need to rebuild it or not. If the cylinders aren't pitted from rust, a light hone might clean them up. Surprisingly I've seen a motor that sat outside for years clean up with a hone and using some .001" oversized rings. It's not the best...

I already have the information from ITS about getting it titled. I'm waiting to come up with the $200 to have it done.

I sold off some of the ole muscle car parts that I've been hoarding and raised the money to fix the truck. I had to (figureatively speaking) beat my wife away with a stick when I had that much cash on me at once though. As far as updating the housing, there's a page in one of the TM's about...

Have you ever changed a clutch in a manual transmission pickup? It's actually easier than in a pickup truck. I haven't used a manual or anything, I just dove into it and figure it out as I went. It pretty much goes like this: 1) Remove all the transmission covers from inside the cab. 2)...

I should have gave you a holler. I was off work at noon on Thursday and all day Friday. Not sure if that'd have made your 1000 rendezvous though.

I don't have an answer to your question, but I like the camo of the first truck. Off the bat, it looks like the MERDC pattern, but I'm nowhere near an expert.

I too have the whale tail brake handle.

There was a tow bar at one of the booths, anyone see it? I don't think it was a Deuce bar though.

I seen a Deuce out at the shoot. Looked like the older camo pattern. Bed had bows and stakes, but no cover and a soft top on the cab. It was a turbo truck w/w as well.

I have city water and my stove and hot water heater are both gas. So I think a MEP-003A would be more than enough power for my home and maybe even a neighbor, or at least enough to keep their fridge going.

I can help you out. You can help me put my transmission back in when I get the parts. Deal? lol

Good news! Depending on when it is I should be able to give you a hand still.

The one you're talking about is the one I was going to get. I used to work at Autozone and I get a discount there.

I was thinking about that yesterday, but actually forgot about it. Just curious, what did you use to measure yours? The slide-rule type caliper or tong looking ones? Pardon my lack of technical terms.

Not meaning to thread-jack, but I have a couple of related questions. Is the MEP003A a good gen set to power a home? I know next to nothing about generators. Can someone point me to a better place to get more information on these gen sets and using a military gen set to power a home? After...
