Long bar is about 35.25 inches (Ken-Tool commercial), short bar is regular deuce tool length.

SC Military Museum contact is COL E.T. (Buddy) Sturgis.

I've also got one at Ft. Riley, KS, so if the guys at East Wind don't want it, you can get it for my cost.

Check off one action item. I won some Field Hand Wash Stations from GL, Gimpy will coordinate getting them from GL and i will journey up there to get them, bring 'em home, fix 'em up, etc. One by the MKT, and the others near the porta potties. Here is also a link to new ones. Bathroom...

Do a Google search for "way back machine" and then enter your web site and a date according to the instructions they give. Hint, it's web.archive.org

They can be purchased at NAPA, but you'd better be sitting down, or maybe already on the stretcher with the IV hooked up when they tell you what it will cost.

For a deuce, something that works a little better when landing is a 2 liter drink bottle. Cut it about half way between the shoulder and the top neck and it will fit closely on the top of the stack, yet clear quickly when the truck is started. When it lands it won't damage other vehicles...

More reading is necessary for sure! Multi-fuel deuce engines have 22 to 1 compression, regular diesel engines have 17 to 1 compression, gasoline engines are usually less than 10 to 1.

It's been done, look at the GA Rally pictures from 2009 or 2010. There are other threads where folks show them doing it. Basically it involves standing both trailers on the back ends (tailgate), then slipping stakes in the pockets, sliding the two trailers together, strap them together, then...

The four finger PP does not have as strong a set of springs as the three finger 'stamped' ones as was detailed in another thread. Because they are cast, the four finger ones are not as strong either and tend to brake right at the pivot point. The redesigned PP replaced the four finger one and...

Quickfarms, If you want a 20 ft long RV, then the M-814 will be your vehicle of choice, since it already has a 20 ft bed. You also need to look for a 20 ft long "rigid wall container' on GL as it will already be insulated and weigh less than a shipping container.2cents

and the TM is on Liberated Manuals, there is also a -35 and a -24P manual to peruse. Remember: -12 is operator and organization level -24P is organization through depot with parts, and -35 is maintenance facility through (essentially) factory level

Trailer with two MEP-003A's and a switch box is called MJQ-18 Power Plant. It basically allows you to have continuous power (esp with the aux fuel line in use). Start with Gen-1 for 100 hours and about 99.5 hours, start up Gen-2. Once it's warmed up, turn the big switch from Gen-1 to Gen-2...

These 'protectors' are UV treated and at $36 plus shipping ($26 for the 16 x 20 size that should fit the regular cargo trailer), they are a lot more expendable. The larger ones like I got would cover up most of a deuce cargo cover. I plan on only using them when my trailers are in storage...

Since cargo covers for the M105 series trailers are not plentiful, and will become scarcer in the future, I started looking about for something to protect the ones I have from the ravages of the sun and other inclement weather. And I found something! Tarps & Covers | Tarps | Medium Duty Tarps...

First one is an RT-246, next few are RT-524's, then you have an MT-1029 mount for the above radios, a test set, Pic #8 is accessories, then pic #9 is either a PRC-25 or PRC-77, and the last one are 'survival radios' for downed pilots. Pvt Jarhead sells completely reconditioned RT-524's for...

While this has been covered before, I used pop rivets spaced about 1.5 to 2 inches apart. Pliobond is what others said in that thread for a glue. BTW, I had to come up with a substitute for the hard plastic strip, since mine was gone. Used a piece of vinyl siding, cut to length and trimmed. YMMV

Tom, You should have a pair of 24 v lights near the very middle of the ceiling. The blackout light is suppose to work with a switch on the door which turns off the other lights and leaves the blackout light burning when the door is about to be opened. To the left of the door as you look at it...

Don't leave it on in the summer either! Really, the last canvas stuff was probably made over 20 years ago, maybe a lot longer. Sunlight (think UV rays) is going to have a negative effect on it, as will rain and wind. Same is true of vinyl, but at least most of it is newer. I've puirchased...

.... that's when they show up on GL!
