    MSRP and registration costs and GVW

    possibly the DMV, but not CarFax. They told me my VIN was invalid. They're only a nine digit number, so even DMV may hassle you <img src="emoticons/icon_smilie_bitchin.gif" alt="Bitchin"> but, my VIN is on the title so they can't argue with that

    back home with the deuce! but that light switch..

    actually I cheated and bought a clean truck from Idaho Motor Pool, but it's still a big risk driving 420 miles in a truck that's almost 40 years old! <img src="emoticons/icon_smile_approve.gif" alt="Approve"> I had insurance lined up and faxed to me beforehand and Alex sold me a temp permit for...

    windshield wipers- how are they supposed to work?

    I'll have to take a look at them in that case. Both of them operate exactly the same There is a little air nozzle coming off the top of each in a 90 degree curve. Should there be a hose attached to those?

    new, less obnoxious air buzzer?

    is there a replacement for these that will just hook right in? I can't stand that thing, and now it also seems to be going bad. It goes on with the switch on, but the truck starts and then it gets all patchy and intermittent, or goes off completely even if the air is low. Or maybe a light in...

    windshield wipers- how are they supposed to work?

    I can't figure these things out, I turn the screw on the dash and it sends air to them. But, I press the red buttons and they just stay depressed, and the wipers don't move. If I manually push the wipers over to the left side, air will push them back to the right side but they stay there. Is...

    question for ANYBODY that had a 3 lever switch die

    oh no, I'm not discouraged at all. Far from it! I love this thing! <img src="emoticons/icon_smile_approve.gif" alt="Approve"> The headlight switch is no surprise since I had seen so much talk of them even before I'd seen one in person. I like a challenge and am still considering making my...

    military three lever light switch

    OK cool, I did see one of those- wire going in, wire coming out but I saw no way to reset it. Kind of a dumb design I'd say since it wasn't labeled as to what circuit it protects, so I have no idea if it tripped or not <img src="emoticons/icon_smilie_bitchin.gif" alt="Bitchin"> I'm mostly...

    question for ANYBODY that had a 3 lever switch die

    yup, saw that one thanks. Helped me figure out which wire was which. I just can't find anything about whether the switch is the cause of the malfunctioning (melting) and the reissue of the new push button switch, or if shorts burn that up? Also, what position do you drive with the lights on...

    back home with the deuce! but that light switch..

    surprisingly clean for the price- I plan to repaint it all forest, nothing major just a respray over the existing paint. Kill a little rust here and there, fix the lights, fix my air buzzer, for some reason it's going dead, re-wood the rack and seats, reupholster the seats with foam and...

    military three lever light switch

    my military 3 lever light switch is beyond terminal. It burned out and everything went with it, and I couldn't turn it on or off and ended up stripping the lever off. The reason I couldn't budge it was the contacts had melted, and the little plate deal that is held there by a spring just...

    question for ANYBODY that had a 3 lever switch die

    well, my military 3 lever light switch (I'm testing to see how long it takes for google to return that as a result, anyhow...) is beyond terminal. The reason I couldn't budge it was the contacts had melted, and the little plate deal that is held there by a spring just pushed into the plastic...

    back home with the deuce! but that light switch..

    well, here's a pic, I'd have had more but my camera batteries went dead. I'll be sure to snap more conquering adverse terrain :) This is in Winnemucca, we couldn't wait to get it home before we painted our personalized markings! And I don't like that camera cause the optics are screwed up-...

    back home with the deuce! but that light switch..

    well, she made it back. What a trip! Now, I had no experience driving heavy trucks and a lot of what I thought was the way it was but it's definitely different in a lot of ways. Learned a couple things, first is that the shift pattern sucks! Learned a bunch of other stuff but forgot it...

    when your NDT's wear out, what have you all done?

    any trick to reinstall it? or does it just slide back in and bolt it up?

    Hi-Lift jack under axles?

    cool, thanks for the heads up!
  19. M

    when your NDT's wear out, what have you all done?

    just to double check, it looks like all you do to remove the axle is unbolt the 8 bolts and pull it out?

    when your NDT's wear out, what have you all done?

    OK, COOL as long as I know I have some sort of cover (the front flange) then I'll pull the shaft or shafts out. Thanks for the tip on ease of removal- I'd have been under there in the rain cussing and hitting stuff. I always say work smarter, not harder <img...
