    Exporting North?

    Unfortunately, just because you didn't have to fill our an EUC before you picked up the truck, is no guarantee that you will not have to fill one out in the future. Or get a visit from the guys in sunglasses, driving a black Suburban. Things get re-classified every day. And Uncle asks for...

    Wrecker Bed (A Good Laugh.)

    If you're cooking the steaks at the GA Rally for those fellas, I'll let you use the griddle!

    Lockbourn win

    $3.75 a pound to ship does seem a bit high. About as bad as the lot I won in Hawaii, which ran about $2.75 a pound back in 2008 (and I don't even look at stuff that far away anymore). They are probably wanting you to pay their labor for boxing up the filters (and finding the cardboard) and...

    Best way of bringing eggs is in quarts, already pasteurized and don't have to mess with breaking the shells.

    Finally after being here a while im a deuce owner

    Only air on the gladhands should be from the passenger side unless soldier B is pressing the brakes, and then only if the valves are turned 90 degrees. Valves are located inches before the glad hands at the back of the truck, between the gladhands and the frame.

    Off-road Magazine Article about M109 camper

    On-line version of the article had what appears to be some errors, calling the truck an M35A2, when it appears to be an M109 or an M185 shop van originally. Exterior paint is too matching everywhere for it to be a recent conversion on the bed. Nice article though.

    Not really a need, but a question

    You can drive a non EPA approved car into the USA, for up to 90 days, but you cannot get it registered or titled in the USA, nor keep it as an over-the-road vehicle. Unless it is over 25 years old, etc., etc. I'd like to get one of the Ford Transit vans made for Europe, with the diesel engine...

    Radios, aging, and corrosion

    I've also stopped it by first cleaning, getting it dry, then spraying it with clear lacquer to seal it from additional moisture.

    Who's going to the Fla Southern Outpost Rally?

    I took a few pictures between the raindrops also. And, I found Waldo! Just 12 miles south of Starke, FL!

    New brake shoes or not?

    A smaller diameter point in the line would affect how much fluid reaches the brake cylinder in the short run (braking hard), but not the total amount in a closed system (slow, steady braking). Thus, it looks like you have found a possible problem and the solution!

    GL has extended a day on several auctions for?

    Yes, but deuce prices today are three to four times what they were four years ago (IE, $700 for a running deuce cargo truck). My last GL deuce was a shop van for $1270. Check today's prices.

    Ron, Swiss is going to be driving two different vehicles, at the same time. I might be there with a video camera just to capture that show.

    M185 M109 Box Electric Breakers

    Most of the shop vans have 60 amp coming into the box from the big connector high up near the passenger side. I don't know about the inside, because I rewired mine. I used 10 ga wire and 20 amp breakers. YMMV

    Jerry cans

    So you just want one for show, not to use? Or should I say 'try to use' and wind up dumping half or more of the fuel on the ground!

    Jerry cans

    Make sure you get the USGI ones, and not the ones made across the Pacific pond. On the imports, the metal washer that is supposed to compress the rubber and seal the opening, is not thick enough or strong enough to actually make a leak proof seal (ask me how I know). If you get to handle the...

    There will always be more, unexpected, expenses. Don't slow down giving till the Gov. signs the bill!

    Strange metallic scraping sound

    If it's a Marine/Seabee vehicle, there may not be a place to put the drain plug. My M-36 is that way - it was factory built with the deep water fording kit installed.
