What does it really need to be driven back to TX? Would I dare? I am partial to those.. I could come up over the holidays.. Hmm.. but...

    Re-Powering The Deuce With A 5-Ton LDS-465-1A Engine

    oh no!! the secret!! Hey now would be a good time to do a real good check on the steering box and maybe the compressor air line (mine passes under it out of reach and that is where it has rubbed and leaks..)

    defroster fan

    one thing to see to is that thing is hooked up correctly, so that the right nozzle of the diverter box goes to the left windshield and the left nozzle goes to the right windshield. It's often a mistake made with this. The right nozzle bows more air -and you want that on the driver side. Another...

    VIC-1 intercom

    these locations for crew boxes were convenient for me. If you intend to operate the switches to switch radios while moving, it could help. The usual headset cable is just a bit short for the driver prompting me to wear the headset reversed left for right. The box mounting screws are 1/4" size...

    run ins with law enforcement

    other than a curious cop in a wal-mart parking lot who was suspicious as to why something like an M35 would be there at 9PM, never had any imperial entanglements.

    M35 to M34(hub flip, single 11-20's)

    in addition to dataplates, from experience using radar and GPS, going from 9.00x20 to 11.00x20 will get you from 55 to 59 or 60 MPH (depending who you ask). However, those speeds are dataplate redline on the engine. Better to use the 11.00x20's to run 55 and reduce engine speed. I run 50-55 and...

    builder77 - he's a member here.. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=profile&mode=viewprofile&u=2368 I am not concerned about the price of the filters. I am concerned about putting better filters on so the engine might last longer. Most any modern design filters are...

    MO OK AR KS TX rally

    There's the question of how the re-enactors feel about post-WWII vehicles in their events. Whle I usually park my radio truck and throw up some antennas (and use an ATV to get around the AO), most others would like to go on the trails with their vehicles. It would be fun to attend the event, but...

    Total destruction of all End-Use items (end of trucks???)

    military radios, what a waste.. $18,000 radio smashed to pieces. Someone would have bought it for ham radio use for $1000.

    Circuit breaker question.

    The breakers you have will be just fine. They will still trip at the same exact current. They (24V ones) will likely be more durable on 12V. Unless you are running some very special 12V equipment, you will never notice the voltage drop issue (although you might be able to measure it with a good...
