    Repro brake light switch alernatives?

    Yes, see that's my issue. I am sure I can find a functional replacement (Echlin, BW, Bosch, etc.). Let's face it-a 60psi trigger point and 1/4" MPT are easy parameters to satisfy but I don't want a bunch of hacked of wiring under my dash where it's visible. I can live with cutting the harness...

    Repro brake light switch alernatives?

    I have had multiple (5 or 6) of the new, hydraulic style brake light switches fail by sticking shut (closed circuit). 4 on brakes systems and 2 on air. I seem to remember recently a thread where people were discussing the low reliability of the new (I assume their Newstar China junk) switches...

    Brakes

    rtk said everything I was going to say. I wouldn't move that truck until I pulled all the hubs, replaced or rebuilt the master, flushed the brake system, etc.

    Very useful tool

    I have a pneumatic one and I can't believe I went all those years without one. I couldn't even imagine doing a deuce by hand.

    23speed road ranger and dt466 swap

    You'll find that 99% of deuce related topics have been covered in depth. Best advice I can give you is to spend a few weeks reading up on topics that interest you. DT466: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?75771-Will-a-DT466-fit-in-a-M35a2...

    Realistic "city use" payload of M927 extended wheelbase truck

    I don't have pictures but I've moved 5K lb forklifts with my deuce. Didn't fall though but definitely bent the floor of the bed in between the support trusses underneath. Would not do again without some way to distribute the load unless it was a truck I did not care about. Don't know if I...

    Differences between 1950's 60's and 70's deuces

    I've had several trucks that still had Douglas connectors left over from their early lives (I have a truck now that's obviously early-several Douglas connectors, remnants of the old 25A generator and external regulator, rear exit exhaust, etc.).

    Differences between 1950's 60's and 70's deuces

    Gasser M35's are 5speed but with 1:1 fifth gear, no OD like the A1/A2 multifuel. Square turn signal guards are from trucks purchased on the 1969 contract. Your truck may have had them or the entire fenders swapped. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?30943-Square-turn-signal-lights...

    If the King Machine doesn't need it, I do. I have a winch with a broken one.

    1965 M109a3 Transmission Drain Plug

    I think it must have something to do with which version of Android you're running or something like that, because mine would bring up the add attachments screen and then not let you add anything. Haven't tried it since the upgrade as I've had Tapatalk.
