On Wednesday, August 30th, 2017, I drove the deuce to a Car Show at work and back with no belt squeals. I had show the gun to work's security to prove it was non operation, and the "loaded" bullets were blanks.

I used to be able to select 3, 6, or even all 20 photos all at once and upload them. Now, sometimes if select more than one photo at a time nothing gets uploaded. Similar to what occurred previously the upload manager will "spin" and then stop and nothing will be uploaded. Unfortunately it...
Thanks Mr. Jbulach! My apologies for the delay in getting back to you. I just spent 2-days in mistaken site ban purgatory (I thought the site was down, lol! It's all good now).
I am very happy with the electrical air compressor's performance! I'm starting to get used to their additional...
If possible, I would improve the "Banned" notification screen to actually inform the user that they're banned and provide an email address or some sort of information on who to contact if you think the ban occurred in error. For nearly 2 days I thought the site was down as I received a blank...
As noted earlier, in October 2015 (about 1490 miles, 48.4 hours ago), I added a 12V alternator. This required one of the belts from the 24V alternator. With the addition of a pair of 24V air compressors this year, I found out that at full, or near full, load the 24V alternator requires both...
Update:
So as I've been driving the truck with the electrical air compressors, sometimes there would be a belt squeal, which would stop when I turned the switch for the air compressors to "Off". I have a 12V alternator above the stock alternator, which required one of the belts to be longer to...
All:
Many of the links in this thread are (or were) broken, and I have reported to the Forum Moderators the updated corrected links. Many of the links by shenkmen were referencing this post of his bench top test of a sending unit using an air compressor...

If you run dual 11.00x20 Goodyear G177's in the rear, you are correct, there is no room for chains on the inner tires, you'll likely even have the tire rub the trunnion cap and bolt heads...

Looks very nice!
How do you handle driving your truck to Lodi? Do you have more than a regular driver license? (I've read California requires a greater licensing for 3-axle rigs, even if your license is perfectly fine in the state you're from.)
Hey Mr. red, it's been quiet, what is the latest news? Have you received any sort of compensation for the very likely bad studs? I take it your truck is still stranded down South? I hope you got home?
A coworker and friend asked me to bring my truck to the church youth group that he leads tonight. I talked about my M35A2, answered questions, and told a couple of stories. A stranger was driving by as I was showing my truck to the youth and he had to stop and talk too. He was a nice fellow...
Looks really nice, clean, and fresh in the pictures!
I'd recommend buying troop seats, uprights and bows for it at the same time as those suckers are hard to ship and you'll probably wish you had them later.
