Open the bleeder screw and be sure the pump is working correckly. The attaching bolts and screws will make no difference. Did you tighten the hose clamps inside the tank good and was the rubber pipe in good shape?
$150.00 is the starting price on all items. that price will show until the auction is active and someone bids. Yes you can bid 150 early and be high bidder but it will not last long. Most of the time it does not get serious until the last 15 minutes. At the end every time someone bids it...
If it has been a while since the truck was run then theres a good chance The fuel shut off rod in the pump is stuck. Follow the shutdown cable from the cab to the IP. There is a rectangular cover with two screws holding it on. Remove the cover and make sure the rod inside is sliding all the...
Welcome aboard!!!! I did not see your location when I first read your post. I am close to Statesboro so am not to far from you. I also have to thank you for getting my OD fever cranked up again:cry: I have been on the lookout for an M37 and have been able to drag my feet because none were...
I have had good luck with the welded nut deal but have never done it on aluminum. On stubborn ones that won't come loose and the nut breaks off, after a couple trys I will weld the nut good and hot which swells the bolt and throw cold water on it which in turn shrinks it and most times it will...
The 5 tons do tow well. bob130 towed two 600 miles and had no problems. The duece on the other hand does not like dirt and the wheels will lock all the way in one direction. Clint, Kenny towed that 109 to the Rally last yearwith the steering wheel tied and drug it around turns. Maybe you...
I don't understand what the problem is?? I just pulled an alternater off a duece yesterday for an SS member that pappabear promised a free one to. It was no problem at all. Walter even came in a day early to get it. When he called me to tell me he was coming a day early I in turned called my...
Basicly register with GL. You will need to give them a credit card number they can check out. When you find one you want to bid on bid early, they will ask for credit card info. After that first bid you will be in the system so you can up your bid if you want. Other than that just be...
Most of the parts are easy to get. If you can get a parts truck for cheap it is worth it for the major stuff. Most of the small stuff can be bought on e-bay, or advertizers here, or many of the dealers nation-wide
You guys were posting while I was writing, as I said, my hat is off to you pappabear, I was glad to be a part of you effort, and yes I wish you could have been here too.
Maybe a little lead in is needed here as I recall this took place in the chat room and maybe not the forum. I have crs you know. Walter just bought a Duece and it is missing the alternater. He is home on leave from the conflict over there and asked for a lead on an alternater. He was going...
Pappabear, Walter came by a day early from his vacation in Fl while home on two weeks leave from over there. I had cranked the truck to make sure the alternater was good and it was. We got it pulled before he got here and was ready for him. He is a fine young soldier and his Bride to be is...
SS member rdixiemiller is a paint engineer and is knowledgeable about carc. I got 2 gallons of older carc from him in trade and it worked fine. I don't know how old it was though. I don't see him on here much anymore but you might try a PM to him.
One thing I have learned from restoring antique tractors is that a bargin is not always a bargin. If that were a tractor, unless it was very rare I would run, run, run. If you like a challenge and have deep pockets go for it, if not find one in better shape and start there. Usually the sum of...
I have one of the Michilen Radial tires I can bring if someone is interested. It is brand new as in never mounted. Also have a bunch of new aluminum tent stakes for the shelter halfs if someone needs them. I gave away a bunch of used ones last year for a friend but I would like to get a...
I think your problem is in the turn signal switch on the steering column. It is the only place that can feed current to all lights. The brake lights feed through it also even if you are not using the turn signals. I worked on mine a couple weeks ago for a different problem. In some of the...
