    flywheel housing bolts??

    A half inch socket wrench will fit in the hole, and will also fit in the axle pumpkins to check the fluid, as well as the transmission and transfer case. Before i got a deuce, I only had 3/8 drive sockets, now I have a full set of 1/2 drive and a partial 3/4 in drive set of sockets, as well...

    Buying a deuce from the surplus auction?

    You are getting started about three years too late! Almost all of the deuces are now out of the surplus system, last big batches were sold about two years ago. They are more onsies or twosies now, Currently it's the 900 series five ton trucks that are plentiful, but they too will dry up...

    Two prong NATO military slave plug?

    You can buy a NATO slave cable with the NATO ends, and then buy two of the adapters a lot cheaper than an original cable with the two pin ends. Personally, I'm converting all my trucks and generators to use the NATO receptacles, but will always travel with at least one adapter in case I need to...

    re-wiring my MEP-004a for different voltages, including single phase

    Dave, Go around the house and look at the amps or the watts (usually lights, hair dryers, etc.). To convert watts into amps divide the watts by the supply voltage. Figure out exactly what you 'need' to run and add up all the amps of all those things. A MEP-003 will produce 104 Amps, a MEP-004...

    setting timing on my m35a2 multifuel

    You need to read the TM's from cover to cover, esp the engine TM, because it's there! Also look for threads in the deuce forum that talk about the IP. There are at least half a dozen that cover exactly what you are looking for. There are timing marks on the teeth of the gears, however your...

    Correct antenna for an M35

    Correct! Technically, the AB-15 was used with a receive only radio, but it will work fine with a CB, which could be mounted in the shell of one of the other radio's.

    MKT-75A Fully Set Up Walk Around

    You don't need a second short pole, a ladder is suppose to go in that slot just for the cooks. Where you came up, there is a swing up table that I use for the plates and utensils, leaving more room for serving. You have the old style roof canopy poles, with the cast rings. The later style has...

    S-250 Shelter AC Mount

    My S-250 has the 9000 btu A/C in it, but the freon (F-22) was removed before the sale. It's even a 120 V, 60 cyc, single phase unit. 100acrehumpalump wanted it a couple of months ago, but has not shown up yet. Ferro would like the S-250 to disappear so he can drag the trailer it's on to his LZ.

    Clutch Replacement

    If you have a lathe (or a friend who does), you can make an alignment tool out of round steel stock. Take a 10 inch long piece of stock about 1.25 inches in diameter and first turn it down to 1.216. On what will be the front, reduce the diameter further for 1.5 inches down to .75 inches...

    931 camper. The Arrrggh-V

    59apache is right, be careful attaching an S-280 directly to the frame. The frame flexes, the S-280 does not (and return to it's original shape). I got my 280 several years ago at Ft. Gordon. The other 10 in that auction went to a single bidder - they were being loaded three at a time onto...

    Official 2012 SS Ga Rally Info thread

    Dave, I'm sad to hear that recent life opportunities have you going in a direction that sounds less than pleasant. We will miss you and Deb, but will 'continue to march' until you can return.

    Generator Conductor to House Panel Question

    Derate capacity by 20 percent for four to six live conductors according to the NEMA codes I've read (IE, ground does not count). So the OP could use two separate runs (more than a six inch gap between the wires except where they are hooked into the lugs) and not get into trouble, even though it...
