    ATF red dye?

    DH, I wouldn't worry about the blood in the fat. You'll look so good "rockin your new body" that the judge is bound to let you go. Well, either that or your cell mate Buba will like your new looks. The more I think about it, it could go either way. Best to put the fat in a tote for a couple...

    ATF red dye?

    I'd just burn Creosote. DH, I hear that human fat is free in some parts of the country. I'm not sure about NY but shipping it shouldn't be a problem (or you could just suck out your own). :-D

    ATF red dye?

    They used to have red dyed gasoline. They've done away with it since most off-road equipment has went to diesel. In TN you can still deduct your taxes you pay for off-road gas. It's a form you fill out at the end of the year and they send you a refund.

    ATF red dye?

    I assume this is directed at me. I guess I've been called worse than a dipstick (or a lawyer for that matter). I just don't think it's very smart to brag about breaking the law and then lying to a judge. And you're "trying to help a brother out" by advocating lying to a judge?

    need opinion... I'm stuck

    It's not the proper fix but you could do like I did and fill it with John Deere corn head grease. Seems to work ok for a couple of years now and the leak has stopped. The proper fix would be to replace the seals but it's no easy task to remove the steering box.

    ATF red dye?

    So you lied? That sounds like perjury and you just admitted it in a public forum. I haven't seen one in awhile but they used to have fuel check roadblocks and would dip every diesel truck going down the road. I also had my truck checked at a construction site, he checked every diesel truck on...

    profit margin..

    I don't really put too much thought into what somebody pays for the a truck I'm looking at. If it's worth (to me) what he's asking, I'll buy it. If it isn't, I'll walk. What he gave for the truck really doesn't matter. I sold a tractor awhile back to a guy for $5,800. A day after I sold it I...

    Source for inexpensive OD paint?

    This topic is starting to get like the insurance and bellhousing plug threads.

    ATF red dye?

    I know a fellow that got fined here in TN. They pulled a sample of fuel that turned up red. At that point he was fined by the officer and the officer took a bigger sample of fuel as evidence and I assume for further testing to be used in court. I was also told by a TN state trooper that if he...

    ATF red dye?

    It basically boils down to tax evasion and the charges are usually akin to something along those lines.

    Creosote?

    Sounds like the guy was getting too greedy and taking too much fat (fuel) out of his patients. I didn't know it was illegal in CA to use medical waste as fuel, of course everything is illegal in CA. I wonder what prompted lawmakers to make that law? Is it really a problem?

    Recover sales tax

    You won't get the taxes back from GL. My state "TN" will apply the taxes already paid in another state to the TN sales tax when I apply for title. If the other state has a lower rate I have to make up the difference though.

    School me...

    To find M101a1 wheel isn't that hard but you'll have a hard time finding a match on the civilian market. They are M37 wheels. You can run "regular" civilian tires on the stock wheel but they'll have to be 16" tube type. You should be able to find a A2 for the kind of money you're talking about...

    Creosote?

    The creosote everybody it talking about is creosote oil that they use to treat wood products. We used to buy it to paint farm fences and the stuff was as thin as diesel but much more toxic. It will thicken up and turn into a tar like substance when allowed to dry.

    No 6x6 in rev. 932a2

    The M932A2 is supposed to have 6X6 in reverse. I'm not sure about you particular truck, it could be broken. The TM tells you not to drive in low range reverse.

    M929. what the heck is going on with the prices?

    Most military dumps are too small for quarries. A small quarry truck hauls 30 tons. I'd say they are best suited to site work moving dirt and rock. I use civilian dump trucks and road tractors at my business. I've tried every way in the world to fit a MV into the operation but it doesn't pencil...

    Is this a M36?

    I'd kind of like to have one just for the rarity but the fact is that I can overload my M35a2c fairly easy with the 12' bed. What were the M36 trucks mainly used to haul? I can see being able to haul more troops but unless you're hauling styrofoam, it looks like you'd overload it pretty fast...

    carc type 9 in a shake can

    I don't think you can get real CARC in a spray can. www.rapcoparts.com has 383 CARC substitute in the spray cans.

    Is this a M36?

    I saw this truck and am wondering if this is a true M36 or something somebody has cobbled up.

    Creosote?

    I wouldn't even consider putting creosote in my deuce. I'm just going by when we used to paint fences with the stuff. I would think it would plug everything up. Creosote is some nasty stuff and the EPA has really cracked down on using it. Put a drop on your arm, go out in the sun, and watch it...
