    M51 wheel stud sizes ?

    If it is GI, then the same studs and nuts fit everything from the WWII CCKW, through the M44 series deuces and 800 series five tons. The 2.5 ton's use six, the 5 tons use 10. If your wheels have been replaced and now have different studs, you will have to measure them.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Then add in shipping to 'down under' and the waterjet solution (and the critical specs for the inside dimensions) looks a lot better. I recently sent an 8 pound package to Poland and the shipping was $95 (it was a large package). When robomcduff needed some SAE impact sockets, it was actually...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    If you have access to a waterjet , you could cut out the two wrenches you need to quickly adjust the belt out of sheet steel. or you could buy them and wait for the post to get them to you > https://midwestmilitaryequipment.com/compressor-wrench-set-m35a2-multi-fuel-m54-adjust-belt-military/ -...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Changing the compressor belt can be done without the wrenches, it's just a little more 'fiddly'. The compressor wheel is not a solid pulley, but rather two angled plates held together by the bolts. Step one, loosen the bolts so you can get the old belt off, step 2, put the new belt on, step 3...

    Need a manual! Can anyone tell me where to look? aircraft carrier mobile generator a/s37a-3

    Motor Generator application comes to mind, the reverse of what we had in our old computer room. There we had a three phase 60 cycle motor spinning a 400 cycle generator to product the electricity for an IBM mainframe. It was in it's own 10 x 15 foot room and i'm pretty sure it was direct drive.

    Several years ago there was a group buy of HH's from China. Several people installed them and have not reported any problems. People on SS bought about 20 and they were $350-400 each. Maybe it's time for another group buy.

    We use Opti-lube, one gallon will treat 600 gallons of fuel. There is at least one thread here on lubricity additives, and Opti-Lube came in second (first in aftermarket OTC products). YMMV.

    Feel the heat

    Heat is unusual for you guys, we have it from May till September. Outside things tend to get done early in the day, or after supper.

    Deuce Tire Covers

    They are open on the back side and do not have a seam close to where most rain would be able to reach, so the tires stay relatively dry.

    I have purchased a number of items from jagmte.com and have been pleased with the quality. If you go to his site you will see his 'name' stands for "Just A Guy Making Things Easier".

    I made the electronic copies from his printed manuals. One was on operation of the machine, the other was recipes.

    What size viton o-ring for Scepter fuel can spouts?

    The outer diameter of the part that it fits on is 55mm, and since you have a broken one, you should be able to measure the diameter of the ring itself. With those two numbers, you should be able to go to Grainger or McMaster-Carr and find an O-ring that would fit. That is what I would do.

    Karcher TFK250 military field kitchen

    Do you have the manuals? I have electronic copies that I got from MWMULES after he got one that was pretty complete. Warning, it's in German! You need to do a search in the site for 'Karcher' because there is someone else that recently got one.
