    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I dont know if there is a run flat inside or just a beadlock. Either way it wasn't holding air and the soap test indicated a bead leak. I swapped it out with the spare and will break it down sometime in the future. My son and I broke down two M35A3 combat rims with tires yesterday..the hardest...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Changed a flat on a M923A2...due to a leaky bead. After that experience, I'm looking for some of the tire sealant Zout posted about. I can live without CTIS.

    Air-O-Matic Hose

    Hey John, thanks for the reply. I did email Maradyne and you are correct that an equivalent hose is Aeroquip FC647-06-BLK. If I buy a 50' roll of H100-06 (Eaton Weatherhead 3/8 ), I can get it for close to $3.00/ft, so was offering anyone interested 20-25' at my cost plus shipping so we can...

    Air-O-Matic Hose

    I did find the Eaton Weatherhead H10006 hose at a NAPA south of me; however, the price is well over $4/ft plus sales tax. I found a great deal for 50' online; if anyone is interested in 20' of this hose please pm me. I'm thinking about just ordering the 50' and offering 20-25' at cost (plus...

    Is there a new FL law about tags

    Wrong!! I dont know why you continue to argue this fact. I'm only posting this so other FL members are not confused like you. See the attached jpeg which is the latest revision dated 03/12 of form 83045 with the appropriate section circled in red. The box you want to check is next to "A Former...

    Is there a new FL law about tags

    If you actually download the 83045 form and read it, you will see that a former military vehicle is exempt from age limits. As stated above, it will be subject to use restrictions.

    Air-O-Matic Hose

    Good idea, I'll check local shops to see if they have this hose.

    Air-O-Matic Hose

    I was curious if any members bought new hose for their setups and if so, what did you use? I installed my kit last night and in hindsight wish I had made my two air lines from the cylinder to the torque valve longer so I can change the way the lines are routed. The kit came with Eaton Weather...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    You should not have to loosen fuel lines to change the primary fuel filter. Nor do you need to move the generator. A large open ended wrench (1" irc) up top will loose the bolt, with a helper or your other hand hold the canister so it doesn't drop and make a mess or worse break.

    M939 transfer case air lines installed wrong

    On the subject of crossed air lines relating to the transfer case high/low dump solenoid: I had some time to spend under my two M923a2s today. When you visually inspect the interlock solenoid on the top of the transfer case, make sure you pay special attention to the letters next to each valve...

    Haldex Infocentre ABS diagnostic connector

    Did you ever get the "info centre" to work? I'd like to buy one as well, but being able to make it work is critical.

    Has anyone ever used a "6.2 Rear main seal installation tool"?

    I like to RTV the gasket to the pan prior to install. This makes sure all the bolt holes are lined up.

    M1009 takes 3-5 tries to start when NOT started in 1-3 weeks.

    You have a leak somewhere in the fuel system. As warthog pointed out, the fuel filter base is prone to leaking. There are other spots to check as well, so follow the fuel line from the tank to the front and look for wetness. The fuel pumps are prone to problems and will leak over time. Cracked...

    LARC?

    There used to be one in Green Cove Springs, FL. Not sure what model, but it was definitely a LARC. I haven't driven that way lately, so not sure if its still there.

    Soft Top anyone?

    If it was a free option yes, if extra I'd have to think about cost vs. benefit. Tinted windows are nice, but if your going to be rolling up the sides, what would it matter?
