    Popping sound comming from front end?

    Is there anywhere other than SS resources page that I can find this TM. I have been trying to download this TM's pdf all day. I can't get it to download any further that 3.36... All other TM pdf's download with no problem.

    Popping sound comming from front end?

    Thanks Clay. Does the TM just have the allowable amount or does it actually show you how to check for the "End Play". I have never done this before and would appreciate some help/guidance. I tried to search "end play" on SS and got nothing. How do I check for end play. Thanks.

    It does help lawdog. I did that yesterday. That's when I found a tear in my boot on the drivers side. It's right whre my top kingpin is and where the popping sound is coming from.

    Popping sound comming from front end?

    My biggest problem with an issue like this is I don't have a soldier B... have to rely on my neighbor. Hes a great guy but don't know that I would feel comfortable having him do much more than hold a wrench.

    Cabin light install

    I've seen a great idea for mounting these dome lights to soft tops between the horizontal stretcher bars behind your head. I had seen a pick a while ago but can't find it now:doh:. They had used a flat 1/16 thick galvanized plate. The ones with the pre-drilled holes . (you can find at Homers)...

    Yet another texan

    Welcome from South Dallas. The Chaplin is right. Texas is fortunately rather straight forward about registering these MV's of ours. All I had was a bill of sale for my M35 and it's data plate. I was able to use the ID number off the data plate and a bonded title to register mine.

    Should I?

    You have to do it. A trip like that would be epic. I second the fly rod and the bug repellant. Are you going up as a PCS move or are they sending you TDY?
