Hello Steel Soldiers, Thanks for the good reports on my boots. You can pm me for prices on the boots and I have gotten around to making some metal rings to mount them to the floor now. I have to charge a little more for the mounting rings, just to cover the cost of steel and cutting cost. They...
I am pretty sure it is the accessory plug for hand held spotlight as used on wreckers and my Gull wing shop set # 2. I would like to buy it if you don't need it. John Tennis
On the topic of the steering wheel not returning to straight after taking a turn, the poster definitely has a problem with his truck, I own 4 deuces equipped with Air-o-matic steering units and they ALL return to straight after a turn. Always.
On the topic of all kits being the same, Arthur...
Rdixiemiller, I went to their site and found the hub kits but no photo and no description, did you talk to someone and they filled you in on the "kit"? The selectros (now Milemarker) require a spacer about 1" thick and 8 special bolts, is that part of the kit? I think that is a very realistic...
Baldwin is sending info on the micron rating of their equivalent to the 1458 napa filter. we'll see. I installed a set of adaptors on the Molly truck today, will bring it home with me tomorrow night. Using napa 1458 filters. Oil pressure comes up in 2 to 3 seconds on a cold start. 1 to 2 seconds...
Hello Steel Soldiers, I need to clarify one of Lee's points. Oliver/White did have spin-on filter bases in their last Hercules 478 engines. But, they did sell at least 2 types of spin-on adaptors for earlier tractors as customers asked for the modern spin-on conveinience. I have seen the company...
You are pretty close Ethan. Reo was the name, They built the first of the Eager Beavers.....M34s. Then the M35s. They built the OA-331 engines for them too. Now for the Kia....... They make an M35 style truck in South Korea for the world market. Same sheet metal and body parts. Different engine...
Hi members, I'm pretty new at this, Are you saying that mile marker still offers new hubs for M35 trucks at $ 405 per set? I am able to sell 2 1/2 ton M35 hubs for about $500. JT
Okay, proving my dumbness here, what color name is 24084? I have three trucks painted with Aervoe semi gloss that live outdoors in Upstate NY thru thick and thin. They have been thru 2 winters and 1 summer. I really don't think they have faded any noticeable amount. I painted my shop van...
I heard about that particular mis-labeling problem more than a year ago from one of the major Aervoe dealers, at that time Aervoe had contacted him and advised him of the problem and he immediately dealt with it. I'm surprized that you are just now getting that paint. Very interested in who your...
RE: gun trucks
Jeff Houghton, can you pm mde asap? I'm in the middle of a gun truck build. need physchological mentoring and tech question answered. And spelling tutoring!!!! JT
Hello Steel Soldiers, I haven't got a price on the adaptors yet, I have to run them a while longer to be sure and we will post as soon as available. I bought one of the spin-on filter base housings in Ohio this past summer, It helped me figure this adaptor plan out. Jon, you will be using Napa...
I have the adaptors installed on my JATonka 4x4 conversion truck. I am using Napa 1458 spin-on filters. My time from engine start to built oil pressure with cannister filters was 19 seconds at 22 degrees F. My engine start to built oil pressure time now is 2 to 3 seconds. I removed the filters...
