    88 A2C all the way home.

    I just had to re-wire a truck that came from GL, as all the gauges had been ripped out. I could have sworn the 27 circuit was the 24V power for all the gauges (marked "IGN" on the back of the gauges) and that 27 was all that went to the voltmeter. Let me check, brb. EDIT: Yes, 27 is the...

    No Driving Off Base-New Recovery Rules?

    1. "approved towing company" says to this cynic: A. There's a tow company with contacts on base B. Our towbars are no good inside the fence. 2. Is there a definitive list of which installations have these policies (Ft. Jackson, Ft Sill, Camp Shelby, etc.)? 3. Before anyone starts calling...

    My M35A2 Project aka Big Betty

    Believe it or not, most everyone assumes anything below a 1/4 tank to be the danger zone. Part of that is because the designers intentionally let the pump pickup hang a little high, so if trash were to get into the tank, the pump wouldn't pick it up. Once you take the fuel pump out, you'll see...

    CCKW wrecker set #7

    Yes, I wanted to make it twice as useful. Actually, I haven't gotten around to repairing the seized up factory trolley/hoist combo, so for now I have a cheap civvy trolley and chainfall.

    CCKW wrecker set #7

    I wasn't sure where to put this, as it kind of fits in with my "working the deuce" thread that I use to document what we've done with our trucks (http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/15325-working-deuce-vol-12-385-a.html) or the #7 hoist thread, so I guess I'll park these here. Had a grand time...

    Looking at a M38a1 Today

    It all depends how much of the vehicle is there. They are usually missing all sorts of their stuff like the correct carb, shackles, pintle, top bows and hardware, correct wheels, jerry can mount, spare tire holder, etc. However, if the body is trashed, even if everything is there I think I'd...

    $400 a gallon

    We're spending approximately 307 million dollars in Afghanistan every single day (112 billion dollars a year). We sure aren't spending all that on the troop's pay. It has to go somewhere.

    Thanks for all the kind comments. We appreciate it. We're glad you like Betty, there was a lot more to do than we ever anticipated! But it cleaned up really well. I shot some pics as you were leaving Saturday. Enjoy. You guys are more than welcome to visit anytime.

    Parking Brake Switch Instructions

    It's the one with the switch mounted in the rear of the parking brake handle (same as the late model USAF M35A2C's)?

    Late Model USAF M35A2C Registry

    See attached image. These tags aren't USAF specific, they are all on the M44 series axles. My truck also has an additional tag, in the image I posted with the expertly photoshopped arrow, it's the shiny tag on the left. I believe one tag is for the bare housing and the other is for the...
