I suspect at issue is the way SS is hosted and how we manage images. The vast, vast majority of web forums, for anything from baking to camping to vehicles allow people to host images elsewhere. So if you start a how-to thread on how to make chocolate chip cookies, you post all your images to...

Ok, A. Is it difficult? No. Transmission doesn't have to come out. Get it up in the air, pull the pan. And for all of you reading this, even if the rear main isn't leaking, you should pull the pan. The picture below is a customer's M38A1 that was cruise night quality and ran...

I would go over that truck with a fine tooth comb and make sure you know what you're buying. The kind of person who'd avoid buying a $25 engine stop cable and rig up a coat hanger is probably not the kind of person who was spending money on maintenance items.

It's a challenge to get antiques not to leak. Modern vehicles are multitudes better in that regard. I have a 90K mile car that doesn't leak a drop. My '68 Road Runner probably had a dozen leaks when it was 6 months old. However................ you can get there. No plastic on the red car...

I am in process of dealing with a lot of those issues on '42 GPW. There are of places where the vehicles commonly leak, but on that one, I'd give it a good bath and then drive it a little. When there are fluids everywhere, it's hard to tell what the source of the leak is. Before going any...

One of the worst things about the internet is how it's democratized opinion. Prior to the internet, if you wanted to post your opinion about anything - presidential candidates, dogcatcher candidates, the merits of a local restaurant or vintage vehicles - you had to find a magazine that would...

The only M44A2 series trucks with dual circuit brakes are the 1987-1989 USAF contract trucks. They have 87K, 88K or 89K USAF registration numbers and their VINs begin with either 1040, 1041, 1050 or 1051. I'll have to look at mine tomorrow. Somebody remind me. There is a TM related to the...

That was Dave's idea. u/RustyJunk. Wish I could take credit.

Ok, where do you start? Before I get to the individuals, I want to thank our sponsors, who have made an event like this possible. Old Guard Graphics (https://www.oldguardgraphics.com/) make our t-shirts and they've given us a little discount but they've been very flexible in how we could pay...

Hey, I have done this a billion times. I'm at the Ga. Rally right now and cell reception is horrible, but I can help you with it Monday. Unless you wanna' come hang out with us and we'll show you firsthand.

I think Saturday at 7pm is when we're shooting for.

Alrighty folks, A. I have printed all of the waivers that have been sent to me, even if it came in 15 minutes ago (it's currently 10:15pm). If you send it now, I won't see it so you'll have to fill it out at registration. B. Same goes for insurance cards. I will have them with me in the...

Hey guys, My business partner / buddy RustyJunk was preflighting his Deuce just now and one of the air tanks has a rusted out spot. If anyone has a single or both of the standard Deuce (single circuit, so 1951-1986) tanks and you want a reasonable amount for it, bring it to the rally and come...

Alright folks, two things: 1. Tomorrow afternoon at 5pm is the deadline for you to fill out your liability waiver and your current insurance card is you're going on the hardball convoy on Saturday. The email is posted here on post #141...

I want people to see what goes on behind the scenes with putting this event on. The rally owns a bunch of surplus handwashing stations. They were used when we got them and we've had them for awhile. And Durhamtown has stored them for us in previous years. But last year when we showed up, most...

You mean it's leaking from between the housing and the bearing retainer? If so............ under that seal housing are shims, they're how you preload the front and rear pinion bearings. In a 2.5 ton, they look like this: So, there's no gasket and you're not supposed to put sealer (like...

I like shock resistance for the relay and the schematic on the lid.

I know everyone acts like CARC is pure death-cancer-lava-AIDS, but you guys know any urethane paint is supposed to be handled (sanded, sprayed, etc.) with proper safety gear (at a minimum an approved respirator, gloves and long sleeves; preferably a full suit with fresh air supply)? Even a...
