RE: weighted tag Oh, I forgot in my earlier post: You can only get the TP tags at either the Charlotte or Raleigh DMV offices, you cannot get them from one of the contract tag/title locations (ie: everywhere else in NC...).

Tell the boys to estimate the size(s) of the rebar that they are loading (or just read the sizes off the bars as they are stamped in--but they may be unreadable due to adheared concrete, etc.) and the length of the bars and to use the standard weights to calculate the load... Although the...

The application form for the TP tag does not have any restriction on hauling loads... It only states that a person who owns a truck 25 years old or older is said to be in the business of collecting antique trucks... You can haul a load with a TP tag. However, if you are hauling...

If I were you, and this was my first GL purchase (and first M35), I would contact somebody like AMGeneral (he's in Morganton, not that far from you) who has lots of experience retrieving vehicles and who not only has a couple of towbars but a collection of trucks (including a wreckeer) suitable...

I was going to put a line in about my posting photos tonight when I get a chance to actually take some... but I figured that I'd got that avatar posting in response anyway. :)

I thought I would post here instead of the five ton section since I think that this might affect some other sized trucks as well... The other day, I lost the air line in my XM813 that connects the firewall manifold to the air pressure guage... The speed at which I went from 120psi to 0psi was...

RE: update As MD says, Gilbert's been AWOL from the forum, and he was the one who was spearheading this (although I was going to provide one/two beachouses for it) so it didn't happen this year... My folks are at the beachhouse right now (and will be through Thanksgiving), but the offer to...

I've done this more than once by removing the vent line and putting my blowgun (with the rubber tip attached) up the tank vent and giving it a shot of air. Works well, especially if you have somebody else in the cab who can crank the truck while you apply the air (so that it is pumping while...

I've posted about this elsewhere (and I'll do a search and will see if I can find it for a cut and paste here...), but in North Carolina, you get a NON-Commercial class A, B, or C (C being the defualt that everyone gets when they go in for a "regular license to drive a car/pickup, etc) that is...

Military battery is a pair of 2HN, a civilian size that fits well is a 22NF. Fanbelt is a Gates B52 (I think that this crosses to a NAPA 5L520W). There is a PDF cross reference chart on my website that is located at: http://www.garbee.net/~cabell/PartsCross.PDF Good luck,

Good to meet you both at the monthy meeting yesterday. Looking forward to helping you with the "new" ride and to seeing it in the local parades and events. Welcome.

If the link works, you should see a Holmes 20 ton fifth wheel wrecker (commercial version) for sale about fifty miles from me. If anyone wants it and makes a deal, I'll be driving by the location twice in the next two weeks... I'd be after it, but I have no tractor right now... It's on Craigs...

If you want one, I have a spare M37 in the back yard that I'll trade for the R2... And I can arrange to have the M37 hauled to the GA rally if you wanted to make the swap...

Check the injector lines (both ends of each). Look at the nylon lines (check the ends and for pinholes in the lines themselves). Clean it off and run it for a shorter time. The lines can and do loosen up, crack, etc... Good luck.

A friend of mine who now lives in Arizona sent me a bunch of photos that he took while he was stationed in Alaska in the Signal Corp as a weather observer in support of the Continental Army Command artic test activity during 1960-61 at Ft.Greely. The photos are on my website and include such...

Good to hear that this truck found a good home, and that its' not that far away... I hope to see it in it's restored glory soon. :) Love the avatar photo...

Picking my stuff up on Thursday of this week. Could have done so last week (EUC cleared on Wednesday), but didn't have time to shift my schedule... Once the paperwork got to Battle Creek, everything went smoothly as usual, getting it to Battle Creek was the hard part (for the first time...)...

John Winslow is working on one right now. Great looking truck. Looked over it two weeks ago when I was at his shop, but didn't have my camera (or the time) to take any photos as I was busy dropping off a truck and picking up some parts.

I have seen many an item that I have bid on (but did not win) come back for sale a few months later... There are a couple items up for sale right now in MD that I was second highest on four months ago that I would be bidding on again except that I purchased some similar units (but not quite as...
