I'm glad the rubbing issue is somewhat clarified now. Mine don't rub at 65PSI and 6500 LBS in the bed, but if I deflated them some they would. I think the issue would be worse at high temperatures and highway speeds. Those ites look really good on that truck. Is there the rubbing issue on the...
Now after several days, I have 28VDC on the batteries. This is perhaps excessive for float-charging flooded cell lead-acid batteries, 14V per battery!
Can someone with battery experience help out? Is the correct final float charge the same voltage as shown for 100% charge -and this figures in...
Hello Artillerydan,
I'd like a complete dashboard set for a 1968 Kaiser-Jeep M35A2 with no winch, but what about the serial number or VIN stamped in? is that possible or do I need to do it myself?
Here are the plates I would like to buy, shown in these pics from my truck, as they are so...
Nice find! It'll be a real good family fun kind of thing, looks like! sorry to hear of the brake line popping.
The brake hoses at the wheels are rubber, but here is a question for the experts: Is the brake line itself made of stainless or just steel?
Mine has a thin layer of rust (yes I...
Here while looking for a picture to explain what I meant, I did find a nice PDF about the AS-1729 (attach), but anyway the pic below shows what the plastic top "cylinder body" part I'm speaking of is on the 3684 and 3900. There are several 3900 on the place for $20, I should get one to open it...
well, I seen through the clear-ish plastic base on the 3900 on that hummer for myself. I made a mistake above and posted "1729" instead of "3684".
The base underneath where the cable goes was metal, but the top part was plastic and supported the metal top plate and spring like my AS-3684...
I found a NSN price list, It covers alot of stuff and maybe should be moved by the Grand Poobah to a proper location, but it shows prices Uncle pays for antenna parts, a good giudance when we buy or sell our surplus.
There have been posts from users of the the AS-3900/VRC Antenna - Similar to the AS-1729/VRC and others that go with the VRC-12 radio sets:
The top section of the base (from what the spring sits on down to the mounting flange) is made of a plastic material such as acrylic. It is important to...
RE: blower motor draw
not to dispute but with the engine running and the alternator working, the voltage should be close to 27.5 volts. If you have the 60 amp alternator, this voltage should hold with all accessories running, and should not drop below 27 volts. It is possible there could be a...
My friend from Belgium tells me that offroad motorsports in Europe are becoming more popular including ATVs and Karts as well as 4x4 trucks like yours. He says in the past they were not so popular due to high fuel and insurance cost, but the fun seems to have overcome these obstacles. I see you...

rmgill:
That is a nice installation. How did you do it? I could not get my big paws into the places necessary to have put the bolts in near the front of the air tanks.

These are correct diesel tank brackets from a M35 parts truck, the old tank was...
RE: Re: RE: Genset noise
Ok, It's just that the job is, for me as a guy that works with little electronics stuff, a "big job" and I don't want to make a sloppy mess of it.
I agree you should find the cause of the drain. Since the deuce has no fusebox, the easiest way to do it is to use a milliamp meter and an assistant. Disconnect the battery at any terminal, and insert the milliamp meter there, note the reading. The assistant can watch the meter and as you...
Well maybe someone's going to have to try one to see if it fits. What seems to be in question is the hollow cup of the deuce oil filter mount, and how the adapter would seal to that.
RE: Re: RE: Genset noise
looking at the mounts, they didn't look quite straight somehow. I measured and they are mounted straightly on the truck, but the tips that stick out, one is about 1" higher than the other. Measuring from tip to the top of the mount on one and then the other shows about...
