    HEMTT Wheels for Your Deuce are READY TO ROLL!

    I only asked because the bead looked a little fluid. It might have been the glare. Rattlewagon, I was under the assumption that the 251 does spray fairly well, at least from what I've read on the welding boards. Donk, we have a 250 here at work that I've used from time to time. I can't stand...

    Closure On HEMTT Rim Adapter Plate Project

    That was a joke, ATD, really, I swear....I'm not in the market, but I'd love to see any in process pics you have, if you would. I like to see that kind of stuff. :wink: In the end though, you have your plates, and that's what matters.

    Closure On HEMTT Rim Adapter Plate Project

    If you really stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night, you should be able to figure out how to get the rim/plate combo to my door for less than $200, otherwise you probably only stayed at a Motel 6.

    Closure On HEMTT Rim Adapter Plate Project

    What kind of precision are we talking here? Is .0006 to .0010 good enough with no Laser scale, on a multi axis machine? Come on, we're talking about a wheel center here, not parts for the space shuttle, but hats off to the OP for getting it done.

    Closure On HEMTT Rim Adapter Plate Project

    But when it's a laser job, it's programmed once, for one plate, then as many plates pasted on a sheet of steel as possible. You'd still have the chamfering to do, but it would be a viable way to lessen costs in the future. You'd be hard pressed to get low costs on intial development of anything.

    Cannibalizing lesser vehicles

    That gets you super singles, CTIS, an ugly, ugly front end, and an engine that's really not all that powerful.

    LD465 question!

    Negative. The military did put LDS's into their deuces. How many, and for what reason, I couldn't tell you. I know, I have one.

    Parting out an mep 003a runs good

    I'd like the float switch and level indicator, or the whole fuel tank assembly depending on price. PM me your price please. David Ames

    Recent auction prices on MEP-002, 003, etc.

    If the closing bid on the page is anywhere near accurate, thennumerous 002's went today for $275 to $400 with and without the ASK.

    Hour meters and MEP-002a service life?

    You can look for date stamps. The hour meter on my 003 has the same date stamp as the year of manufacture. Coincidence? Maybe.

    LDT vs LDS visual difference

    Data plate, and a tag on the IP that says LDS. My LDS has the smaller "C" turbo, and the dipstick is in front of the turbo.

    M35A2 Transport vs. Drive

    Did you check the oil cold, before you ran it?

    Compliance with DOT???

    I was being facetious.

    This is how to drive!!

    That is some of the sad reality of war. It has lasting consequences.

    1400x20s on M813

    It may be a lot of work, but in my opinion, in flipping the hubs, the rims look a lot better.

    I get ignored for the most part by LEO's.
