I'm going to call him tomorrow and make the inquiries as to how much and do they run. I know shipping will be a killer but I'd do it for the 24V power.

Found a stack of these at Shirley's. The MEP 952 diesel generator sets providing 28VDC at 180A. So, here we have a nice 5KW set, but it is DC. I can invert this. My question, are these designed for continuous duty? The application would be overnight power for high-powered camping (3KW loads)...

RE: Congrats! That is a fine machine! How did the drive go? I admit I don't know that model very well at all but I have always liked them. What speed were you able to maintain and what RPM ? Any mileaage per gallon to report?

Sounds like a good idea. why not? I think that drive should be a piece of cake compared to..

RE: Tennis Looks like it fits perfect!

yew sure got a purty truck... :-)

Please note that these equalizers work all the time when connected to the batteries. In a vehicle that is not used daily, it is necessary to disconnect the equalizer when unused or in the end you will have a discharged upper battery and a well charged lower. After a month, the truck likely...

Does anyone recall the conversion "Tom"? did on his deuce to install a CAT V8, etc.. made it run 70, etc? Ok, he added some special headlights to the fenders. The fixtures if i recall had the headlight and a turn signal in them, the headlamps were in addition to the originals. Does anyone know...

Well it's been a privelege and an honor to have the hospitality and support from fellow SS members during this adventure. I'd like to do it again some time as well as host someone coming through Texas. We have a big great nation to travel, and for what it's worth, I think I'm a better person for...

RE: Congrats! HWY 80 runs parallel 2 or 3 miles north of I-20 in LA. On HWY 80, I stopped for lunch and decided to look in an antique store. As luck would have it, I found some little colored glass bottles that my mom collects and puts in the kitchen windows, and bought 5 of them for $3 each.

I can keep mine in 4th at 40MPH on a 3% grade at 900 degrees post turbo. I wasn't looking and caught it at 1000 deg in 3rd coming from Bjorn's to HWY 77 and let off right away. The real question is, what's the graph of pre vs post turbo temperatures? It's not so simple perhaps due to RPM, load...

RE: Congrats! Congratulatiuons on the drive! I bet it was alot of fun. MV's have taught me that speed is not the greatest factor when traveling. Did you have your girl along? i have not yet found one that wants to ride far in the old deuce.

Thank you, it is also very practical from an RF standpoint to put the tall antennas up front away from sheetmetal. Of noite also, low bridges may strike erect antennas if they are mounted much higher in 'authorized' positions. Sure the military ties them down, but no need to go on about...

I was not able to stop in texarkana on the way back, but at least it is close enough to visit anothe time. i am sorry but I took I-20 back and if I wanted to make it in Thursday night, I did not have time to divert north.

The front radials, what the truckers call "steer tires", have about 3000 miles on them and show no appreciable wear. I just went out and measured, and have 1/2" tread in the middlegroove, and 7/16" on the outside grooves. These are designed for and run with inner tubes, and are for the...

All the pictures from the trip are now posted online on the Bunker of DOOM website: http://www.bunkerofdoom.com/travel/steelsoldiers1/index.html There are over 500 images, and the data set is about 1GB. If you click on a small image to see the large size one, or on anything else for that...

I can't really see that, do you have close-ups?

I did it: steer axle 6680 LB drive axle: 12520 LB gross weight: 19200 LB Mileage was over 2800. I have to say this is a good proof of how reliable these trucks are, if well maintained. Had I just changed the belts before, there would have been no issues. I don't count the wiper blade since...

oops..

Here are some pics of cannon from vicksburg tour
