Guys, Got a M35A2C that has an inop tachometer. Tacho head and cable are fine (at least, when I disconect from the right angle drive at the front of the engine and spin the cable with my drill, the tachometer works... So, Asside from just swapping out the right angle drive (anything to worry...

Guys, I've done it again... Going down the road on Saturday, right at 50mph, and the speedo dies... Got home, went under the truck and found out that the guts of the right angle adapter at the t-case are missing.... This happened before (about three thousand miles ago) and I replaced the...

I thought that I would do a "cut and paste" from two posts on the www.g741.org forum since folks keep asking this question over there... One from one of the other guys who tends to write thoughtful, well researched posts: First of all, it's important to understand the chemical nature of brake...

Re: RE: New Guy trying to get some Info? I too rant about the CDL thing... FWIW: North Carolina also offers NON COMMERCIAL licenses that parallel all the COMMERCIAL classes. Since the testing is the same, as are the fees, I usually suggest to folks that they go ahead and get the Commercial...

Rick Larsen at http://www.milstencil.com has the Seabee logo listed on his "paintmask" page. I think that he also has it in oilboard stencil as well if you ask (not listed on the website that I could see). His product can be scaled if you don't like his stock size... Good luck.

We have been using US301 up through AP Hill to the Harry Nice Bridge accross the Potomac to MD3. Haven't had problems keeping folks together, but the route has been growing stoplights north of the Bridge... Running up I95 through DC adds quite a bit of congestion to deal with... I'm not...

I use either Naptha or Xylene from Lowes or Home Depot depending on temperature... See my page on painting at: http://www.garbee.net/~cabell/paint.htm

I think that Kenny and I were thinking that the back road route was still better than trying to keep everybody together through the construction/traffic in the DC area even though we have a lot more stoplights to contend with each year when we get into MD on US301... So, right now, same route...

The run from Dowsell up to Aberdeen is on Thursday. It's a lot of fun... This will be my fifth year... :)

RE: loops They are for securing the insulated blanket used over the hood as part of the artic heater (engine) kit. The manual for the heater instal kit is on my website. Photos of trucks fitted with it serving on the DEW line are on my website although the gentleman who sent me the photos...

We run up from Doswell to Millersville (Transit Truck stop on Veterans' Highway), then up to Baltimore (run through the Harbor Tunnel), then up to Aberdeen. Times for these stops are: Arrive Millersvill at 11:30AM Arrive at the Harbor Tunnel tolls (south side of the tunnel) at 12:45 Arrive in...

Mike is working on it. Just did the IM thing with him. He is out west and is working on his laptop instead of his really nice "work" machine. But it is getting close...

We will meet at the All American Plaza (Texaco) at 8:00AM and will depart at 8:30. Truck stop is on Route 30 just off I95 next to the Best Western, phone number is: 804-798-8008 Bassically, those of us who have spent the night roll out, eat at Denny's, cross the street to the truckstop, grab...

I just got off the phone with Rick Larsen concerning Convoy Signs. He has serveral sets in stock and says that he can get East Coast Convoy participants a better price than what he normally retails them for. They are still a tad pricey since the are made using really reflective material, but...

Great timing on this thread... I have a buddy who is having the same problem with a pump (takeoff) that was recently installed in a 530C (duece firetruck).

That's a ROGER... BTW: The hotel in Doswell has a pretty decent Denny's that we tend to patronize...

Not every Air Force truck is painted blue... I have a '83 USAF M35A2C that was painted in three color camo while in the Service (tactical trucks got painted camo just like the other branches rigs...). Also, I have a buddy who fondly rmembers bright yellow Air Force rigs (flightline...). :)...

Just thought that I would cross post an item that Charles Talbert posted on the g741.org forum in case any of you want to jump on the deal... Especially since I am the one doing the hauling... :) "I'm sure most know about Cabell Garbee offering to pick up surplus parts here for delivery to...

I was impressed that year... :) He really seemed to have a good time visiting with the rest of us. Is he going to be making the trip with you again this year?

FWIW: the M37/M101 SOCKET - BEARING WHEEL is a KD 2438, SNAP ON ANS-1905, or a HUSKY 15003 (W-3). Get them at your local parts store or online and stick it under the seat... (don't forget the adapter to alow you you use your little breaker bar if you don't cary a 1" unit with you...) Good luck.
