No the queen will not leave the brood this time of year...
There is a difference between a beekeeper and one who has done/does removals. Some beekeepers don't do removals or cutouts. Others do them all the time and know all the little tricks.
I used to do about 200 removals a year, but it is...
Well I hope an SS member ends up with her. I would hate it if it sold and we were unable to find out what ever happened to it.
Good luck to those members bidding
This reminds me of my drill instructor in basic.... We had a bee problem around base and when we were in formation the bees would buzz us.
He used to yell "don't swat my Coast Guard bees.... they have more stripes than anybody on this base."
If you need any other numbers let me know. I know people who know people :)
It is hard to tell from the old pics, but are they in the box beam that supports the body?
You should have called a beekeeper the first time... We are a resourceful group and would have come up with a way to get them out alive, and keep them out.
Yes they can smell the old wax... this cavity will always attract swarms of bees even if you pressure wash the interior, they will be able...
If everybody who viewed this thread could send in 15.00 each we would have more than enough to purchase this truck. The buying power of this group combined could be pretty amazing... we really should have a fund set up.
Housemover... there is enough info in this thread to know which one it is... It is a nice truck...
Hopefully who ever wins it will come forward after the auction ends.
Deuce Coupe... How far off would you be from being able to purchase it? Seeing as you drove this truck; would you say the...
Here is an article from Machinery Lubrication magazine that does a good job of explaining the physical properties of Friction Modifiers:
It would be interesting to be able to get actual reports from people running straight ATF in their trucks on actual hrs and if they have had to rebuild any IPs.
There are a lot of members on this forum, it will likely end up with one.
If it were not tax time right now I would finance it for you... but I have to pay the uncle next week. Maybe there is another member who is in a position to finance the truck for you and hold it as collateral?
What is the purpose of adding it to the differential? To Reduce noise and wear. What causes noise? Friction of the two moving parts trying to mesh up.... how do we reduce that noise? We make the surfaces more slippery temporarily so the parts slide easily together and that reduces wear on the...
Please see the article from Ford Motor co that I linked in my first post: It is specific to automatic Transmissions and states that Friction modifiers reduce friction. In the link that Akon linked is also specific to Automatic Transmissions and states that friction modifiers Reduce friction. His...

I will make you three the same deal I made Akon
I will concede this if you can find a source which states that a Friction Modifier INCREASES friction. The source can't be from a forum or random web page... must be from either a manufacturer of additive or a...
Like I said in the other thread... A patent application isn't proof. Anything can be patented..
To simplify:
At low pressure the friction modifier increases slippage, under high pressure or heat situations it looses it's slick characteristic and returns to that of the original fluid. Under no...
In an effort to prevent another thread from spinning off track I am moving the conversation to alternative fuels. A comment was made about the Friction Modifiers in ATF being to increase friction in the transmission and grip of the clutches, and because of that friction increase, it will destroy...
I would try and find the opportunity to drive both the a2 and a3. Find out which you like... Then start researching the pitfalls of the a3 and decide if they are worth it to you.
The A2:
Looks better
Is faster
Multi-fuel
Dependable trans which is cheap to fix or replace.
cheaper tires.
The...
What is your budget? The m35a2 has been basically the same vehicle for 40 years so as far as specs, not much is different. 1986 and later have a better brake system than the older ones do.
If you're not mechanically inclined you should probably lean towards private purchase of one rather than...
