Good-bye twist-o-flex, hello smoke! I caught the watch on the heater switch and commenced to lay the prettiest...

    started the BOB today

    I too drilled all my holes with a pair of cordless drills. I got good at it! The trick is to start with a 1/8 bit then move to 5/16 then to 1/2. With sharp bits I can drill a 1/2" hole in a frame in the amount time it would take me to set up a mag drill..... But I would sure like to have a mag...

    Why you need to have a 3inch axle nut socket in the cab

    If you open the windshield about 4 inches, you can set your beer on the cowling. Just make sure you have a tittie on it or it will get hot real fast. Dirt

    M35A2 low oil pressure.....

    Don't they all knock? Seriously though... If it were a cam bearing or a main you may never hear a thing. As loud as these engines are, you may not hear a rod until it's about to grenade. Dirt

    Jesus Gatos wheel center flip

    Well to update this thread. I all but removed any wandering I was having by adding one round of Toe to the tie rod. I found that the wheel/tire with the 1/4" runout actually had a flat spot on it. It is now my spare. Drives like a different truck! Thanks guys for your input on this problem and...

    Steering wheel deterioration?

    You can sand and paint the steering wheel. You can even use bondo to fill in cracks. Spend some time on it and it will look like new. Dirt

    Are they gonna be cheaper for SS members, or does your ebay price stand? BTW, which "Feds" did you get these from? I was thinking about buying one..... If the one I get has the word "china" anywhere on it, your azz is mine. The reason I am wary is because I saw the same things at a local flea...

    Ford Tractor Airplane Tug

    I used to drive one like it 30 yrs ago... If memory serves me correctly it does have a torque converter. It kinda lets you maneuver around aircraft easier. We never pulled aircraft with them though. Just ground equipment. Dirt
