    MEP003, trouble starting

    Unscrew the Control Panel to look behind it. In the upper right-hand corner there is a small relay (starter relay). Make sure it's there. Mine was missing and did the exact same thing as yours. As soon as I replaced that it ran fine. I have a picture of it on my other computer that I'll...

    Tank Pumping Unit - TPU modification help

    Finally got the 2 parts seperated. What is pictured is what I'll be mounting on left/rear of my M105A3 (when it gets here). I haven't decided on the mounting position of pump or what I'm going to do for a filter (probably a civi unit fabbed up to take the TPU quick release hoses). After this...

    What is the average gl auction price?

    I have 2 slightly used searches I'd be willing to trade for MREs. If anyone is interested PM me.

    What is the average gl auction price?

    So if I said I'd be willing to sell the OP info he was asking for would that be within the guidelines?:D

    Tank Pumping Unit - TPU modification help

    Well went out at the house today so didn't get much accomplished on the project but I did get the right hose reel off. 18 bolts holding that sucker together and every one needing a breaker bar to get loose plus having to unroll the hose by looping it in and out since the reel is bent wore me...

    Nellis AFB to Austin, TX

    Great seeing you at the MVPA meeting last night! Nice looking truck too. Man, just the thought of driving a deuce from Vegas to Austin in this heat has me feeling faint!

    What is the average gl auction price?

    I think more to the point is some newb coming on here calling people A$$holes. He had the same option - don't like the reply, then move on to the next one. It's like going to a BBQ you weren't invited to and then saying "Man your food sucks!" My comment to him wasn't "do a search" it was "I...

    What is the average gl auction price?

    That's kind of like asking "how long is a piece of string?" There isn't enough information to give you a good answer. Do you want a winch? Hard top, soft top? A2 or A3 (big difference in price there). How far do you want to drive or have it towed? Last year you could get a running, drivable A2...

    "New" 1973 M35A2 w/M66

    There should be plenty of deuce "experts" there on Wed. We'll tell you what it is. Might not be right, but we'll tell you.

    "New" 1973 M35A2 w/M66

    There's a little confusion on the web site. Under "Coming Events" it has the meeting on 8/21 (Saturday) but if you scroll down the page to the "Meeting" section it says 8/18. I already sent Danny a note advising him of the mix up. So yes the meeting is Wed and I should be there. Since I live...

    "New" 1973 M35A2 w/M66

    Glad to hear it went smoothly! On the ring mount, typically they cut them in half to demil them. At a minimum they need to make it so the pintle will not move around on the track. Since you don't have mess with the gov't on anything there's no worries. There is a gun truck replica in the...

    Tank Pumping Unit - TPU modification help

    The outside plate on the hose reel is bent (should be easy enough to fix). Got anything interesting to trade? If you come over for our MV show on 9/11 you could even save on shipping :)

    Tank Pumping Unit - TPU modification help

    There were no filters in the filter canister and I've got a lot of hoses and couplings from the unit so I'll probably rig up some type civvy filter unit.

    Tank Pumping Unit - TPU modification help

    I'm thinking about cutting the frame just to the right of the accessories box and saving that whole section to bolt to the side of the trailer. That way I wouldn't have to fabricate something for the hose reel to mount to and I get the added benefit of a built in tool box. I lose some of what...

    Tank Pumping Unit - TPU modification help

    I started the tear down on the pumping unit this morning. Got pretty much everything off but the hose reels. Also recovered about 4 gal of diesel (no telling how old). There was about 1 gal in the pump itself that was pretty nasty looking and then several gal in the filter canister that...

    Let's just remind everyone that there are a number of LEOs that frequent this site and then you can decide if that's wrong or not.

    is this worth it??

    Sticker on the front bumper makes it look like a GL truck.

    Be prepared for some headaches at the DMV. If the SF97 is not in YOUR name they likely won't accept it. You may have to take it back to "Steve" and have him title it first and then transfer the TX title to you (ran in to this problem with 1009s). They will also hit you for double taxes (Steve...

    My recovery story. Fort Polk, LA 8-14-10

    I hope you have better luck than I did. I picked up a 1009 a couple months back and the batteries were delivered in '08. I can get one of them up to 8volts but the other one won't get above 3.5 no matter how long it's charged. I'm thinking about dumping the acid and refilling it to see if...
