    m35a2c cover cargo

    It's not a problem for most things, just costs many Zloty's per kilo of weight!

    m35a2c cover cargo

    Check with the European dealers, as shipping from USA to Poland would cost more than the item costs. And only purchase the corner bows - you can make the top bows and side stakes out of hardwood available locally. It may also be cheaper to have the top cover made locally and just purchase the...

    RT-524 Radio Installation & Setup...

    Try using 49.85 Mhz and listen. It's a frequency that in-home stereo wireless headphones, baby monitors, etc use. At least one of my neighbors has one, as I can hear them Lima-Charley with even the little short antenna on the PRC-77. YMMV.

    Anyone know anything about these comm/radio units??

    NEVER have the radio's on when cranking the truck up or shutting it down. ALWAYS turn the radio's on after the truck is running, and shut them off before you turn the ignition off. They do not like voltage spikes or brownouts. Just a word to the wise!

    M35a2 clutch ?

    Check with Erik's in California and on e-bay. The replacement pressure plate has three fingers. There was a thread on here several weeks ago where one of the four arms broke near the pivot point - that one had pictures! Pilot bearing is a standard 3/4 inch oil impregnated bronze bearing and...

    Anyone know anything about these comm/radio units??

    Pics 1 and 6 are loudspeakers. Pic 2 looks like an R-442 (receives only) - Vietnam era, pic 3 is either a PRC-25 or a PRC-77 sitting on an AM-2060. Last two simply show the radios in the mounts. AM-2060 is worth about $200 PRC-77's about $400, R-442 maybe $150, mounts are worth anywhere from...

    Generators for Dummies

    Grounding rods are generally copper plated steel, not solid copper. So, yes, you need a ground rod. PM me your address and I'll see if I can get you a piece of 6GA wire for the ground - generator to ground rod. Check with CARNAC on a distribution box - he had one at the GA Rally that he was...

    Generators for Dummies

    100 feet, 20 amps load = one 10 ga. cord. But a 100 ft 10GA cord is HEAVY. I use 50 ft 10GA to run power to my pantry trucks. In that application it will handle 25-30 amps without significant voltage drop (less than 2 percent). Another thing to consider - try pointing the generator exhaust...

    BOLO missing truck

    If you do get a court ordered garnishment, be sure to file it with not only the state and IRS, but also the local welfare office. That way, any tax refunds he might qualify for will be sent to the court, and his welfare will be reduced (but only by a very small amount). It will chap his cheeks...

    Best tire/wheel combination

    better figure a spare in there somewhere (IE four to five wheels/tires). With only four, you are asking for a visit from Murphy!2cents

    Pressure plate fails...

    It's a standard 3/4 inch oil impregnated pilot bearing. Should be available at any heavy truck parts dealer. Sounds like your NAPA is a car parts store, not a heavy truck one

    Light sets

    The bulbs are blue so they are not seen as far away (they usually have blackout cones on them also). Two boxes makes up one complete light set, which will put lights into about four GP Medium tents. Usually issued one set (2 boxes) to a company. It's all two wire stuff and the lines that are...

    Bows for an M871...

    would deuce bows/corners work? I know I use 1 x 3 red oak for the uprights and bows with the GI corners on my deuces. Bottom of the uprights has to be shaved a bit smaller than the finished 3 inch - width of a saw blade is generally enough.2cents

    need help with starter for my 89 3 kw 24v generator

    Have you checked the TM that ends on "P". That's where the number will be! Grasshopper, TM 5-6115-640-14&P would be a good place to start.

    There is a thread about moving a truck from Hawaii to Texas from early 2010 > http://www.steelsoldiers.com/5-ton-up/46921-bought-m925-hi-should-fun.html You may be able to learn somethings there! Good Luck!
