They're fun for sure. I used a strap that comes with over-tire tracks for a skid loader. No hooks makes it easy to work with.

Looks great! I was planning on spraying my '52 green this summer, but I decided to call my existing paint "faded strata blue" , and numbered it as an Air Force truck for now. I don't think I'll bother taking the incomplete Jeep or my Humvee to the MVPA convention, but I'll be there.

I'm pretty sure you can pick "regular" for registration type, you'll just fill out the ex mil compliance form (411187) and pick your tonnage, DOT here seems to put them in the same category as a class 6 truck even though they're not. I can't imagine arguing the reduced GVWR tonnage vs data plate...

No more work on this one, they decided to look for a different truck and are searching all the available ones in the program. They had an M1083 for awhile with a smaller tank and turned it back in, that leaves an M818 with a Deuce bed and an M1008 for brush trucks now. The A1 also has 8 bald 40...

No, it wouldn't be that hard at all, but I can see the piston is trashed. I'm a Deere diesel mechanic by day and I know how these end up... I'll just keep getting in deeper and deeper and then have to put it all back together when they don't want to do it right so they can turn it back in to the...

I went to the local fire department to check out an engine noise complaint on their M52A1 brush truck, it has a Deuce bed on it with a water tank. The truck wouldn't even turn over when I got there, it could be barred over about 90° either way, but then stopped solid. I was hoping for a simple...

The cheapest commercial DOT 5 I've found is Johnsen's on Rock Auto at $8.63/ 12 oz. The bottle says it exceeds MIL-PRF-46176B spec, and it's made in Texas. I bought 2 cases and had it in 2 days.

That should be a good one. I use John Deere HD lithium complex #TY24416. Not sure if they send the same stuff over there, but there's a dealer in Kemble.

State Farm did similar for mine, but added one "X". They said their system was confused by the lack of a letter. The treasurer's office was fine with 6 digits for the registration.

Someone left this nearly full can of "CF-3202 Maintenance Tan" in my recent purchase (after they painted over the unit markings with it I assume). I had never heard of CFI before, it's a good match to Rapco. I also discovered that scrubbing the old yellowed chalky tan CARC on the Humvee with...

My 2006 M1097R1 is through State Farm. She said the biggest problem wasn't the lack of 17 digits, but the lack of any letter in the 6 digits. She added an "X" and I got full coverage with a $15,000 declared value for $360 per year.

Those were great times, seeing dozens on the GL lots at a time. Hope you find what you want!

Installed new Weebee seat covers on my M38 springs with a little burlap and polyfill. Awesome quality stuff! Also installed the tub after finishing the floor replacement and welding up 98 extra holes.

Right. I have a squirt bottle for assembling pumps and injectors that has some 5 or more year old calibrating fluid in it, never seems to change much.

Nice set up. It's good to have a steel lapping block as well. Injector bodies and sometimes even new nozzles require lapping to seal properly. Most of the injectors I overhaul are KDEL for John Deere, but I've done a few sets for the multifuel engines.

I've seen some knockoff Chinese plugs recently marked exactly the same as Wellman on the base, with a "380" on the hex. They have flaky plating and slightly different fonts, the hex is 10mm, and the angled seat fits tightly to the element instead of having a little clearance up to the internal...

Mine is in the 600K range and was auctioned as a 2006.

Maybe not new information, but I was told by a GP rep on the phone last week their title option is no longer Montana off road, but Florida with no restrictions. Hopefully that signals a change in that state.

Great people to deal with. I bought a set of MT's and they were 2020 dated new take offs. A couple weeks later I bought a set of run flats and 24 bolt wheels from them. The wheels also appear new and dated 2017.
