I also just noticed you have an industrial lot in the background. I would move it somewhere else, like your house or a grass field to retake the picture. Whoever looked at the picture probably thinks you are commercial and just trying to beat the state out of tax money.

I would not repaint that truck with rattle cans. It might look better for a while but in a year or two it will look worse. I would repaint the bumper, take the chalk markings off the hood and retake the pictures in better/different light. I didn't think the rapco paint was real CARC, it just...

A good link on the MBU vs the old M2 gas burner. Operational Rations > Modern Burner Unit

First, I would leave the starter relay unmounted (it has its own ground wire) so you can unplug it if it sticks again, at least to everything settles down. I assume we are back to it started a couple of times and now it just clicks? The two things that come to my mind are starter shims and the...

Nice trailer. I just added this to the CUCV FAQ post, I can't believe it wasn't already there. CUCVs use metric bolts so you will need metric tools to work on them.

You need to start a new thread with your question. This thread is for answers to common problems. Sounds like you have more than the common starter relay problem, but I think it still may be your main problem. GM used a off-the-shelf heater relay as a starter relay in the CUCV. Its purpose is...

I didn't get an invit either and I have been buying from them since the beginning. I don't have warm fuzzy feelings for this way of doing business either. :evil: I am envious of those of you that are close enough to do business with them at this site, you will have access to all of the indoor...

CA's new diesel emission laws are scary. If they spread to the rest of the country, most of us will be finding a new hobby.

But would that get you around CA emission laws? I was thinking going back to original specs would but I don't know for sure. The new diesel laws don't allow commercial trucks to be grandfathered. They want him to re power with an emission complaint diesel engine.

It would take a clueless inspector to fall for what this guy wants to do. Now there may well be a lot of them in CA, but I wouldn't risk that kind of fine on them all being that clueless. The multifuel is going to have to have a lot of some kind lubrication additive to run on gas. The best...

Going back to who made the bearing that you are replacing, how many orginal US bearings fail that still have grease on them? I would think most would have had the grease washed off them from a seal failure or rust from fording rather than from a manufacturing defect. I wonder how many of us...

I bid off a M818 and my Farm Bureau agent said it was on the "banned list" and I couldn't add it to the policy I had for my M35s. He had no trouble finding a commercial policy through another company though for 10x as much. Any company that covers commercial trucks shouldn't care that it is a...

I wouldn't go that far. It is a legitimate question, just no one has answered with yes I have used them and they are still holding up or that they have failed. I think we all would prefer to use made in USA parts for our trucks, but they are getting harder to find. Often when you order on...

Here is a link to the first link in post #2: View topic - My "new" M185A3 :: Steel Soldiers :: Military Vehicles Supersite

This comes back as invalid. Was it an old sale or a victim of eBay's new policy?

I have used Street Atlas on a laptop for 10 plus years. I bought several Digital Ultra II laptops on ebay cheep and use an old Garmin GPS II hand held. I don't go on a road trip without it. Traveling with a laptop open and running is rough on a laptop. I have killed two screens and a hinge...

I bought some of those several years ago. They looked almost new. I only got a few power cords and they are almost impossible to sell without one. I took two tested good units to 3 shows and finally sold them for $100 each to another dealer. A 10KW gas gen set will run two of them but will...

But I have cut back a lot, really I have. I am down to just one item every couple of sales.:oops:

GL has made so many changes that I don't like I have lost count. Most of them can actually be blamed on DRMO. I don't like the demil changes, all the B/Q lots that I watch not showing up on my closed watch list and the increase in min bid. I don't like the increased base secerity either. I...

If they came up with the part number on their own they are definitely an above average place.
