    master cylinder

    Disconnect the lines (vent line on the cap and the brake line in the back), remove the protector plate, unscrew the four bolts holding it on the frame, remove. Reverse to put the new one in. Only trick is the lower bolt on the outside holding it to the frame. For that I used a 9/16 deep well...

    MEP 017A Hooking up 55 gal drum for extended run question

    Most MEP-002's and 003's do have the adapter. That's why there is a setting for run with aux fuel. Way it works - start with a full primary tank, when it gets down to 1/4 tank, the aux pump is supposed to come on and fill the primary tank back up till it's a bit over 3/4, then shut off. If...

    MEP 017A Hooking up 55 gal drum for extended run question

    Mark, we've been to KDP at Ft. Jackson, range 4 at Ft. Gordon as well as Camp Perry in the huts. We both know Rick York, J.P. Young, Herb Lanford, Earle Schuler and Dennis Coggins. And I know the story of why you shoot southpaw. Do I need to go on, or are you going to look a little more...

    MEP 017A Hooking up 55 gal drum for extended run question

    MEP-002's and 003's are designed to be hooked up to an aux fuel supply, run for 100 hours and then shut down for an oil change and other maintenance. Check the TM for your unit to see what options are available.

    Anybody have STRANGE stuff comeup

    If you are on Windows, and IE for a browser, open the 'Windows Task Manager' and click on the processes tab. If you find several instances of IE running, click on 'End Process' of the smallest one, it will kill all your IE sessions (when it does take effect), which you can immediately re-start...

    Some DUKW's go south for the Summer

    I have it on a reliable source that Ferro drove it off the trailer and parked it at it's new home.

    M50A1 Ontos, good buy? Any way to convert to 4bt or 6bt cummins diesel?

    I've seen the scrap hull. There's probably enough there to build a static display by welding up the holes and putting some 1/4 inch plate over the openings. May not be enough track, but the rest would look pretty cool! Somebody buy it before it makes the journey to China!

    Some DUKW's go south for the Summer

    And here a few that I got prior to it being loaded.

    So, what's the one thing you'd change?

    The one thing that I find annoying is being not being able to go back to view older posts than 'one day' or being restricted to 'new posts' when I've been away for a number of days (IE, GA Rally, my St. Stanislas Charity trips which can last two weeks). Selecting the 'new posts' and there are...

    Some DUKW's go south for the Summer

    I rode with Ferro today on the first leg of a DUKW's southward journey, today going from Jacksonville, NC to Hopkins, SC. Only the cognizetti know it's final destination, but I have been assured it will spend most of the rest of it's life on soft, white sand, and will be driven by a 'squid' in...

    Official 2014 SS Georgia Rally Info SSGR14 thread

    Just a heads up for those who have suggestions for meals on the MKT. What the MKT does is cook a small variety of things in large quantities. I have two ovens that can either be cooking a squarehead pan (like the ChiliMac is cooked in) or a big pot (small one is 10 gallons, large one is 15...

    And if you go forward a page or two from the link given, you will see two of the trailers in the picture. One from the front and the other from the passenger side.

    According to the PRC site (http://www.prc68.com/I/RC292.shtml) my antenna has a range of 36 miles (in all directions) when erected. That means we could reach Greensboro, Athens, Lexington, Washington, Warrenton, Sparta, and probably Eatonton - Durhamtown ain't that big! Formula Pi x R squared...

    Bunk Trailer for FRFS

    Craig, I'm constrained by space, esp in the S-280. There the bunks can have a max height of 55 inches and a max width of 26 inches, and the front set has to be built in the S-280 because it cannot be 'turned' to go against the front wall once built. In a shop van (M-109, or M185), there is a...

    Where do I get military paint for my trailer?

    For real CARC, you will need an EPA rated paint booth and a haz-mat suit when doing the painting. And you will pay the Haz-Mat fee on each container it is shipped in (IE, add $28-40 to each container/box) and $90 per gallon, vs $28 per gallon of the Behr house paint, available locally. It's...

    Official 2014 SS Georgia Rally Amateur Radio / Communications Thread

    Don't know about 60' up, but I do have a military AT-292 that we could rig up (if we can get antenna sections short enough for 2 meters - maybe think full wave). It will go up about 30', and if we remind Bob (tennmogger) of the dates, maybe he'll show up in his radio MOG so we can have a base...

    Official 2014 SS Georgia Rally Info SSGR14 thread

    We have used GMRS handhelds at the VA Rally and did not have any problems with communications, but then it was line of sight for the most part (well, except for the trees covering the mountain side) and probably less than three miles. I plan on bringing my set along even if we don't use it (a...
