    Free Towbar!!!

    BTW.. if he's married and travels, have someone send you some stationary from a faraway posh hotel, and you box it up with a womans' shoe (espcially like a size 15.. if you see what i'm getting at, it would be even better..), maybe a martial aid, fur handcuffs, and some used womens' undewear or...

    Alternate spare tire stowage/mount suggestions?

    RE: Thought... I think the best shot so far has to involve the back of the tuck. In order to keep the tialgate free for use at any time, I am leaning towards the "early GM blazers, Ford broncos etc" general concept pictured a bit above, so that the spare can easily be swung clear of the gate at...

    I'm looking for a take-off turbo oil return tube for the M35. and if anyone has a spare gasket lying around.. I assume they are all the same, but I have the non-whistler. It got put back on crooked at Memphis equ., and I think I have messed it up trying to repair and tighten it. I think I...

    How fast do you drive your Deuce?

    One year at annual training, the TXG decided to convoy from camp swift to camp mabry for a ceremony.. The only MV was my deuce, and slowest vehicle leads.. I can only imagine the 300+ vehicles behind me, cursing.. See, the TXG transportation is based on POVs, not military-owned vehicles. This...

    Annual Pilgramage North.... Military Vehicles and Deer

    What a great trip! Thanks for posting the pictures! I sure am jealous, I don't get to hunt anything around here except paper targets, and it's still a bit warm (and if not warm, wet..) in TX for hunting much of the time. (haha my only other camping is with the TX guard and then I often get CQ...

    Homemade load test for 3 kw gen set

    I am very glad to see people improvising their own load banks. M139h20truck, can you say more about what the issue is when set to 240V single phase? Is it that the phases are not 180 degrees out, but 120deg or 240deg? I too have the 28V genset with the 2-cyl. motor, mine's 1500W.

    How fast do you drive your Deuce?

    55 with 11.00x20's on highway -about 2500RPM. Never over 58 or so. Don't want to risk the engine, and I take the RPM redline specs seriously.

    Road Trip TX -> North, SEPT 29 - OCT 14

    Ok.. 200 mile roud trip.. still leaking. I have to take the thing apart. I bet it's bent somehow where it goes together. Is it alot of trouble to remove the turbo drain tube? - considering the rubber hose and its attachment to the engine. Can barely reach this from the bottom.

    Road Trip TX -> North, SEPT 29 - OCT 14

    Update on the oil leak coming from the joint between the turbo and the turbo oil return tube: I fould a loose bolt there on the bottom of the turbocharger. I believe that since they had the turbo off, and for some time it was hanging by the oil return tube and hose, they bent the flange of the...

    Starter not turning over on M35A2

    Try some protection from STMicroelectronics, the company I work for. These solid state devices can absorb a 5KW pulse. The LDP24A is designed for load-dumping on a 24-28V system. When the contacts open and the arc begins, well, it won't be much of an arc because the thing will be totally...
