I used a structural c channel with very similar dimensions to the stock deformed channel (except much thicker) and it works fine. Drilling the holes for the mounts was a bit of a challenge and you have to tap all the little holes for the data plates. I even tested it to see if it would shear...

For the uninformed, can you expand on what the droop screw is and what it does? I missed that one in the TM. Thanks, jonesal '70 M35A2

deuceman51, I'm in Brookings as well. I agree, let's do a MV meet, no matter how small this summer. I would be great! Thanks, Allen Jones '55 M38A1 '70 M35A2

I need new ear cushions for my H-161 headsets. I've checked the archives... vendors I know of... and even called the manufacturer ($150 minimum order). A Astrocom 10215 (5965-00-815-2525 or 5965-00-058-1246) or Radiolabs TC 182 D335-1 are what are worn out. I don't want the fabric ones (like...

OK, given the sound of crickets out there in response to my post:?, this is an invitation for ANY information on the 19 amp units. I'll take guesses, musings, cussing, etc. I'm only getting a 26.5 charge on it and it should be 28.8. As a result, it doesn't fully charge new batteries after...

Thanks, the FleaBay ones are 5 and 18 feet long. I need a 9 footer to finish my project - ok, a 10 footer would work fine too. I'll keep searching. Bill in Idaho, thanks for looking. BTW, I grew up in Mtn. Home and Island Park, ID. Sure miss the Gem State... Thanks, Allen M35A2 M38A1

Carnac, Thanks for the help with the Caplugs, my VIC-1 appreciates it!! Uh, I do too!! Allen M35A2 with a near functional VIC-1... fun! All I need is a 9 foot CX-4723 for the commander.

I'm looking for TM's on the 18 Amp regulator and generator (24V of course) that would have been in stationary gensets, pumps, welders, etc circa 1960. Here's the specific information: Generator MS-13823, Autolite, GHS-6002AT, 18 amp, GHS-6002DT?, GHS-6002UT?, 2920-00-640-7518 Regulator...

The longest Fair Radio has is 5 feet so unless I can stretch it... I don't want to fuss cutting one down unless I absolutely have to. I'll keep searching and hope someone on this list points me in the right direction.:arrow::arrow::arrow: Ten footers will work! Thanks, Allen

I'm looking for 7-foot and 9 foot CX-4723 cables. One each. I've tried Fair Radio and a few other places, but no luck. The only length I can find is 18 feet! Any suggestions out there?? If I have to, I can use something longer within reason. I would also be interested in picking up one more...

To clarify, I have the CX-10613/G (that goes from the 7777 to the connector behind the seat that gets me to the battery) so I'm set there. I also have a CX-4720 that goes to the 1780 -- it has the 1780 side connector but terminates into bare wires. So I want to put a bendix on so I can plug that...

Who sells caplugs that are the correct size/type for the VIC-1? I live down a dusty road and would like to plug the unused ports on the main unit and subunits of the VIC-1. I checked directly with Caplugs and they told me that part number is no longer manufactured by them. I need 8 of these. Any...

And here are the after pics. And thanks to Henry for all the help. He gets the Golden Award for the ultimate do-it-yourselfer. Allen

Recently completed a redo on a 1961 EP genset referenced in the subject line. It's a 120/208/240, single and three phase up to 104 amps. I bought it on auction for $400 knowing it would be a redo. It would not start or generate power, the culprits being a broken impulse coupling and one broken...

I get my kits from NAPA and they are mailed to a GA lab (I think they are $14 retail and are $10 for wholesale accounts). I agree, just changing the oil is fine, but I use the kits to help tell me the condition of the engine. This kit was sent in about a year after an oil change. When I...

Here's another analysis using Rotella 15W40 (75% sure) in an M35A2. I've been running it about a year so the results look good (and were reported as normal). The TBN was 7.7. Clear ahead, visibilty unlimited... Allen

I'm looking for a M105A2 or A3. Must be in decent shape with intact hitch (no hacks please). Would prefer with bows and canvas (plain or OD). Needs to be within pickup distance to eastern SD, though, I want to look at it first and I don't want to mess with shipping. I see some GL ones at...

Either of these two would suit the bill (reproduced from other posts on SS). The basic kit is what I need for mobility and the fancy canvas kit would just be cool have. Also, does anyone have the most current NSNs for either kit? I've seached at vendor sites and am coming up blank. Let's...

Who currently carries the kits? Either the basics ones in three sections or the fancy ones in canvas... I've inquired around and everyone seems to be out. Thanks, Allen
