Judging from the other pictures that are not family friendly, being on the receiving end was EXTREMELY unpleasant! Haven't seen one but are there any out in the MV world? I've seen plenty half tracks and the Vietnam Gun trucks are WOW, but no half track gun trucks...
Dad was a rifleman. They trained him on 2 1/2 tons, sent him to Korea and handed him an M-1 and off to the Kumsong Valley he went. Has lots of stories and he gave me his 24 Div book. Dates back from the beginning to when the 24th was pulled out in early '52 to go to Japan. Has LOTS of MV in...

Just went to your Project Berserker..looks like fun! Need to fix the next page link...it has problems
Never mind, it got someone else. My Norton AV stopped something...
There appears to be some interest in gun trucks. I found this picture in Dad's division book. Thought some of you might like to see on in action. I checked, nothing that would be bad for a family friendly site, just a truck shooting.
It doesn't quite fit in the Deuce thread being a...
Jake, you beat me to the punch line. First off, mixing fluids was beat into my head as a really bad thing. I never worked on trucks, I worked on helicopters. The fluids we used NEVER get mixed. That gives me a knee jerk reaction to always say, don't mix, if you do replace everything. I am...
One other point...oil based lubricants, syntheitic or otherwise, eat silicone seals. Silicone usually leaves seals alone. If DOT 3, (oil based) went in the system, best bet is to replace every seal in the system. Better safe than "OH CRAP!!!"
One of the brake threads discusses using alcohol (no not that kind, the stuff you CAN"T drink:lol:) to flush it out, then use clean DRY air to get the alcohol out. Do not use straight from an air compressor air, it has oil in it. To a certain degree, if you use a compressor, you'll contaminate...
Gotta say I'm a little confused here. HOA's, code enforcement, police enforcement....where in the world are you folks living...Russia? In the service if you lived on base, you followed the rules. Don't like the rules, leave the base and live in town. Been there done that, hated it. Now live...
Wow, Layton and Laramie in the same thread! Used to be stationed at Hill and just got my W/W yesterday from Bret. Good looking truck, with a heater, even better! Two of my trucks have the air wipers and need what you did to yours. How did you do that and what parts / dealer did you use?
walmart brand is great for any "rubber" based parts such as radiator hoses, fan belts, those nasty rotten little grommets that cables go through that are so small....you get the idea, but it works great...cheep too![thumbzup]
No project is complete until an open wound has occured and said...
Appears less stealthy than a F-22. Too many straight flat surfaces. Probably some stealth based on material construction. Looks like a good target for an AIM -9....
As a proud owner of both a 1964 Corvair Monza 900 and three M35A2's, I am greatly saddened by the video.:sad: That being said, it's his stuff (I hope). Destruction of historical things is just wrong in my book. This is why I collect and preserve old stuff. Some things need preserving for the...
First off, sorry no pictures. Second, drove a 2010 Ford pickup, not a MV. But that's the side story...here's the important parts: Found several Deuces and their variants in a few places. First is Idaho Motor Pool, just this side of the Oregon / Idaho border. HOLY SMOKES THEY GOT TRUCKS...
Last time I saw a bus like that was in 1981. If I remember correctly, it was a similar bus that picked us up at San Diego Interantional and took us to wonderful MCRD San Diego CA for 13 weeks of fun and games in sunny south CA.
:not worthy:
Same color, writing and everything. I might be off...
only thing I can come up with if all else fails (and this is based on a different application) could the recess where the seal seats be worn to the point where it's out of tolerance, i.e. the hole is too big?
