RE: Question on SF97
I found out after many times of visisting the GL chat room help that the inspection requirement comes from GL folks not getting the VIN and other data right. That was not presented clearly and I went and got mine state inspected and those have a time limit on being valid...
Welcome to the site and I am not sure on the tach but my speedometer is acting strange and goes on strike for long periods I am quite sure this is a worn sending end on the cable. running backward sounds strange since I do not have a negative on my 1970 M35A2 tach can you post a picture of what...
Welcome to the site and hope you are a frequent visitor to the site with so much information. Really like the look of trailer with the HMMWV it looks so strange since my M105 is stock I did a little different mod to mine to make it tow behind a truck, I lowered the hitch by welding on a brace...
This sounds like great time to use a metal cutting circular saw blade and set it to the depth of the lower corregation. I have torch plasma cutter and often forego them to use the saw for difficult cuts like this.
Oh and to add this if you are working near anything galvanized drink lots of...
Chris:
This is a quick stab at what it might be used for especially if your tach is working, we ran tachographs in all of our M915's and I have seen them in your series of trucks too especially if they were in USAEUR as the Germans liked the data collection it gives to prove the speed and other...
It is funny that this came up because I was considering making a fiberglass top for my duece. I was going to use heavy cloth and an old metal one for a pattern. I thought it would be a great project for this spring or summer. The other thing I was thinking was to make a cab out of LUAN and...
RE: goin
Welocome to the site just do a little serching in the 5 ton and up forum you will find a wealth of information on this question and find this to be one of the best places to spend you time on line at.
To the tune of Rodk a bye Baby:
Don't roll away MV stay where you are
I know you are jealous I pulled up in my car
The night is approaching you sat all day long
It's way below freezing so I'm singing this song
The fuel in your tank may be ready to gel
You long for the days when they treated...
If you look at the one I got from GL for $200 it was a gem and became a convertor dolly that successfully hauled my M 127 trailer from New Jersey behind my duece.( there is a thead on it in the trailer forum) They are a good trailer and if you want to make a nice flatbed or other special...
If you are looking for a dolly I might be able to let you use mine for a while since I am getting a tractor. It is currently sitting under my M 127 but the landing legs work so I could pull it out. Let me know by PM.
God bless the travel and commraderie of the fine folks gathering in the Sunshine state. May their Castle Doctrine become National Law soon. Keep everyone safe and vehicles running.
Hey it is great to read this post on the British armor that you all have the one thing that kept popping into my mide was the time I went to Rijeka Croatia to coordinate the re-deployment of our Division equipment through the port. In one of the port staging areas there were hundreds of British...
Very Nice I like to hear of the trucks being driven home they are the beast. Mine starts quick even when we got down to 7 degrees it only took a few seconds of flame heater switch on to get it roaring. Nice shop too. If you straighten out the front step you will not regret having it they are...
I was thinking the same thing Rocco and we might have to bring them back together on one truck if they go really cheap. I guess we will see what happens on them.
I kno it is not a favorite thing for folks to see what is for sale on GL on the site but there are so many M 817s up in the near future has anyone had eyes on these and are they rougher than they look or severly water damaged? Just thinking if they go cheap they may be a great deal or a...
Start it Start it get under the thing then start it. I am almost certain from the posts and from experience with dueces that it will start if it has oil and batteries. It will give you confidence in the truck. No better way to get a truck on a trailer than to drive it.
No matter what you...
