    M871 and M105A2 Ft Riley Recovery

    What about fiberglass side and end rails? Not that I am looking but they should be worth something to someone. How much for a back leg?

    MEPs on Casters

    We used 3/4 GRC pipe for rollers to move electrical transformers around. I have a MEP-002A on (2) 1000# furniture dollies and another one on a four wheel flat bed cart. Neither moves when they are running.

    Ghost in windshield washer

    Take the cover off the wiper motor. The pump is integrated with it. There is a cam that rotates when the wiper motor is on. When you activate the column switch a coils pull an arm that allows the pump arm to catch on the cam actuating the pump. The arm is supposed to slide so that after so...

    My wc-53 is wrecked

    It sounds like you are okay, glad to hear that but you know back and neck problems may not be noticed right away when your body is full of adrenalin. I would think the hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical costs will make the truck repair costs pale in comparison. I would think the...

    Glow plug replacement experiences

    If six showed 0 ohms reading aren't those six bad? The new Wellman 070 and AC60G glow plugs that I have read with my Fluke auto-ranging meter all showed between 0.7 and 1.5 ohms.

    Th400 auto trans

    What did the body look like? I remember my father and his contemporaries talking about 'Japanese junk'. It may have started out that way but they got better (reminds me of current the talk of Chinese junk). It is not that American engineers and assembly workers cannot design and produce...

    Has anyone bought these glowplugs here?

    My glow plug system had worked since I brought the truck home. I noticed last winter it was hard to start when real cold so I ordered some wellman 070's. Spring came and the truck was starting fine so I put the new glow plugs on the shelf. All summer and into the fall things worked just fine...
