RE: Re: RE: EQUIPMENT NOISE LEVELS don't klnow the dB but it is a very great improvement against the noise.

working under the truck, with that thing balanced on a jack, it is quite dangerous. best to have a helper and also use the above mentioned 4x4 etc. methods if anything else to limit the distance the unit can fall should it come off the jack.

I realize now why I put up with the heat in Texas.

Ok I took Cranetruck advice and also Gimpyrobb's and been working on it. The spare came off easy (beware the spinning 4-way!) and pioneer tool rack also did, thanks to an air tool. I bought the $99 set from Lowe's hardware, the "Kobalt" brand. It has a 1/2" air drive, a 3/8" 90 degree drive, an...

can you ship that possum jerky? Mom says possum is good but greasy.

I noticed a CJ-10 military tow jeep on his page here: http://www.oldneatstuff.com/oldneatstuff/mvehicles/ and recall that Shirley's has one also, or something like it. I had thought at first someone made that up, but there's the real thing...

Ryan, do you have pictures of the mounts installed before putting the new tank on?

RE: Master cyllinder question If they had not put the darn thing under the cab crossmember, it would be simpler. After checking mine a few times, I though it might be simple to put a kind of fitting there that lets you slip a rubber hose over the fitting, and have the other end of the hose...

Excellent performance! The FMTV better watch out..

No handle on my 68 either. Mine did come with the square mirrors.

RE: I wlcome back! sounds like the young one needs a restricted acount with no admin priveleges. It is possible to use a third party proxy service to restrict the computer from certain sites. That way the son cannot hack a local program and access the sites. Alternate - could set up one PC as...

Don't those have the huge V8?

RE: FOLLOWUP ON BAD BOTTOM END Ouch! Sorry to have thing turn out that way. Hope it works out OK between you and the seller. I wouldn't believe he'd known about that and still sold the engine as good. They make so much noise, it could be easy to overlook various noises is only test running.

Re: RE: flame throwing deuce I don't understand, what is burned for the flame? I thought unburnt fuel, but not sure how much is in a diesel exhaust. I'd like to try the propane route. I guess the only bottles with enough cubic output per second would be the big 'rhino' cans? I have a...

Ok, here's one out of far left field.. Does anyone know how to, or has done, a mod that lets you push a button and shoot flames out of the deuce's stack? Something for show.. a bit of monster-truck fun. I was sorta thinking of starting fluid and a spark plug? Never seen this done, but have...

On the subject of block heaters, I'm looking for something to keep my standby diesel genset warm if the outdoor temp drops below about 50 degrees. The reasoning is that the 4-cylinder 40KW set will be required to assume up to an 11KW load 30 seconds after starting, for better or worse. It...

RE: Head gaskets http://www.steelsoldiers.com/modules/PNphpBB2/files/headgaskets_122.jpg for my money and effort, I'd spend the extra on the new style gaskets.

It's going to be like the frequency standard module for the GRC-106, rare to none. better get it for that price while you can, it makes the difference between a parts radio worth $100 and a working radio worth $300. Just keep calling around, maybe one will turn up or maybe you can buy a broken...

That is a good suggestion. Oversized HF wrench should last a while. I need something that will be held in one hand, right? to get at those tight places, I'll go have a look at their site. I picked up a pair of M35 fuel tank mounts today for $30, and while I was at it, a spare transmission for...

The brackets didn't come with my kit either, but i bought a very satisfactory repro bracket kit from someone on the mil-veh list. I think it was about $40. Of note, not all holes always lined up between the core and the bracket plate, but it was not a problem to drill a couple more holes.haps...
