I usually put down the weight of the empty vehicle and the intended load, NOT the On Road max GVWR, it can make a difference of over $100 per year in the cost of the tags, at least in SC. And I never plan to load any of my trucks with over 3000 pounds of anything, under any circumstances that I...

UTZ Pub Mix cans are prefect for covering the stack.

All this DUKW talk had me looking at other references, and I found this: Ducks Weren't Built for Tourists | Military.com

It's a Toyota with 338,000 miles.

Just tell her she has to convoy BEHIND my shop van!:D

AN/GRM-55 Test Set (available from Fair Radio, e-bay and others) will test all functions of a PRC-25 for correct operation. Does not work as well on a PRC-77, but can test some functions. Let us know what it says is not working properly.

Another thing to consider, esp. if you have the large rubber type horn button that covers the whole center of the steering wheel. Pull the rubber cover off and see if the hard plastic piece underneath has clearance all around, and will easily go up and down. If not, you may want to trim off...

Upgrade to the NATO type! Easier to find the cables, and you only need to carry one adapter if you need to jump someone with the older, two pin type.

How long did the rusty metal primer dry? Should have been at least 48 hours, 72 to 96 would have been even better. You have an oil based paint under a latex paint and the oil needs to dry out before you add another layer. Another oil based paint would allow the oil to rise to the surface and...

Shoprat, it also sends oil into the rings by way of some holes drilled into the piston at an angle. That's why, if it's gone, the piston it was feeding may be ready to detonate, if it has not already done so. Two birds with one stone, cooling and lubrication at the same time.

Today I went looking for MKT items and found the actual manufacturer of the MKT Canvas items (IE, not Penn Metal Fabricators). It's Ehmke Manufacturing in Philadelphia, PA. they make all sorts of 'canvas' stuff for the military. See attached PDF.

You need to look at TM 5-6115-634-14P, which a simple Google search would have found.

The cap and pickup tubes are generally mounted in places on the generator, cap above the fuel filters and the pipes (and ground rods) near the bottom of the frame near there. Hose can be made up if you match the fittings.

That looks like the one I saw in Poland a year or so ago, but didn't get any pictures of.

Have you been on the Yahoo Groups and Delphi Forums for the 'Army Radios' and the similar groups. Lots of folks there discussing, buying and selling older radio equipment.

replacing the 'squirter' involves dropping the pan, finding which cylinder it broke off from (and why), replacing it, and maybe fixing some other things while the bottom is exposed.

Who made it does not really matter - all the parts interchange. What you need to really know is if the block has a casting in it that says "TD", which stands for Thick Deck, the more modern version. As long as it's an LD-465, it can be a turbo or non-turbo, or with a whole bunch of slightly...

Try the AG store for sure. The same block was used in the White and Oliver brand farm tractors, If I remember correctly the 135 and 150 models. Differences were a max of 2200 rpm under load, and 17:1 compression ratio - expected life between rebuilds was 8,000 to 15,000 hours for the engine as...

Eagle, It's better to have a floor in a tent, because it keeps the moisture from the ground from adding to the moisture from the breathing creatures (people and companions). It also gives any rain a way of flowing under the 'conditioned' space (not a problem at the GA Rally this year - problem...

Willysman, Send Tim (timntrucks) an e-mail or a private message with the information about the fellow trying to sell the military stuff. He may be able to help the guy get a better price than the scrapper will pay.
