    Finally, good door handles and latches!

    Ron I watched your YouTube! I could not figure out how to make the Toyota handle locks work with the Locking Bearclaws. I learned most of what I did from you! This LMTV was the one in Belfair advertised on Facebook. Mike

    Finally, good door handles and latches!

    I will find the numbers and post them when I get a few minutes. Also, somehow the picture of the latch bolt has not appeared? Mike

    Finally, good door handles and latches!

    I replaced the crap door handles and latches on my truck. They work wonderfully and the doors don't fall open any more. The handles are locking Trimark brand, the handles just flop loose when the doors are locked. They can be locked from the outside, but not the inside. Getting out the cut off...

    Speedometer sending unit adapter for 395/85R20 tires

    Tacoma speedometer can build you a ratio adapter, just tell them how far off it is and the can calculate the correct adapter. I used to build them in the truck shop I worked in, long ago out of business! http://www.tacomaspeedometer.net/ Mike

    Running MEP-803A at 50Hz for smaller loads

    As I remember, most generator output voltage regulators have a roll off feature that drops the voltage if the frequency drops below 55HZ. This is to give the engine governor time to react to the increased load, that it see's as a drop in ferquency. Seems to me that was in the Basler regulator...

    Approved Transmission Fluids

    Didn't the spec for 15/40 change in the last few years, I thought the zinc content was greatly reduced? Possibly this might create issues, as it is not the same as it was 20 years ago. My Allison expert says use DEXRON3. He said that Transynd was the best choice, but far to expensive. I doubt if...

    Need quote & info to transport HMMWV from Dallas, Texas Area to Seattle, Washington Area.

    My daughter says that HUMvees are not considered street legal in Washington state and the titles are issued as off road only. She said that you can do the necessary alterations (whatever those may be), it then has to be inspected by the State Patrol to certify it's new street legal status...

    Need quote & info to transport HMMWV from Dallas, Texas Area to Seattle, Washington Area.

    I was in Eatonville, I also asked my daughter about it, she is an agent. The answers were not positive. will message her and ask what the problem is. It may depend on what it says on your EUC. My LMTV came with a clear road use title out of Utah, didn't really have any problems. I had a picture...

    Need quote & info to transport HMMWV from Dallas, Texas Area to Seattle, Washington Area.

    Just a note of caution, when I purchased my LMTV here in Washington (2 months ago) my licensing agent told me it is big problem to title and register HMVEE's now. I don't know if it is true but you do not want to find out after the fact. Some law has changed in the recent past, or State Patrol...

    BIG CAM 1 OUT, BIG CAM 3 GOING IN

    You may have to add the throttle switch to the new engine, it may or may not already be installed. It turns the jake on when you lift your foot off the throttle. It is polarity sensitive, hooking it up backwards will blow up the diode. It has been many years since I have worked on one of these...
