    started to replace seals on the deuce

    You may have to use a chisel to get the nut broke free. This can scar up the nut pretty bad but I've had to use a chisel before to get them broke loose.

    Diesel

    Yea I had some marine diesel one time. It was mostly water. :-D The station that sold it to me had a pretty hefty bill to get it all cleaned out of my fuel system.

    M35 brakes, ok to great

    Sounds like you have some oil on the brake shoes. Either from a leaking wheel cylinder, a leaking wheel seal, or both. That would explain the smoke also. You would think oil on a brake shoe would just cause it to slip but it doesn't. It causes it to grab. Could also have bearing problems. Only...

    Converting 24volt gauges to 12volt

    If they are standard M-series gauges they aren't lighted. They require a separate light to illuminate the gauge through the side windows. It shouldn't be too hard to make them into lighted gauges though.

    Cannibalized while waiting for EUC!

    50 round clip? All the bases I've been on allow cameras on the DRMO/GL lot. I have been on parts of bases that didn't allow cameras. They didn't all upset though. All they did was ask me politely to leave my camera and cell phone in the vehicle.

    1992 D7H Cat Dozer inspection needed at Marine Corps Logistics Base Barstow CA.

    We are not supposed to talk about upcoming auctions. With that being said, I would suspect it could have a major hyd problem. There is no way I'd ever buy a dozer from GL without inspecting it myself or have the local CAT dealer do it (unless I could get it less than scrap price). There's...

    URGENT MIGRATION recall from GOVT

    What happened here happens fairly often. Especially on newer, current issue items. Why they sell something they're not supposed to is another problem.

    Converting 24volt gauges to 12volt

    Are the HMMWV gauges you're talking about standard M-series gauges? If so I've got a new oil pressure gauge in the classifieds. I can also get a temp gauge and senders for both.

    Converting 24volt gauges to 12volt

    You could just buy the senders that go with the gauge and install them on your engine.

    parts required to bob a deuce.

    The M149 trailers seem to have a heavier suspension than the M105. It should work fine.

    What PTO is this?

    TNJ Murray had good takeouts for $250. I bought one awhile back and was the best price I've found. May want to check and see if they still have any.

    What PTO is this?

    I don't think that is a deuce PTO. I don't know what it fits.

    Taxes

    Every vehicle I've ever bought through GL in TN, they charged me too much tax. It's just a few dollars but every time the DMV says they charged me too much. The DMV has never offered me a refund and I know better than to ask GL. If you notice they also charge you sales tax on the buyers...

    Deuce Truck Pull

    I used to pull tractors. There are so many variables that it's hard to post in a thread how to pull. You have to "read" the track. This can only be done after pulling on many different track conditions and knowing how your truck will act on each one. By knowing your track conditions you can move...

    ORIGINAL 2.5 ton axle lock outs

    I knew since this thread started that unless he wanted their weight in gold, Kenny was going to end up with them. :D

    Non-Dropside + little $ = Dropside

    I've got one half of a original brace. I've been planning on using it for a pattern and making me a couple. The troop seats still can't fall as long as the front latches are secure but it's just another safety measure. It also stiffens up the sides when the tailgate is down.

    Bjorn, Your link doesn't work.

    Parts conversion list?

    There was a parts cross reference at the old site. I would have copied it had I known it would have been gone. There is supposedly a new site in the works. Maybe we can get some of the features back we lost.

    Taxes

    I doubt you'll get anything back because the truck was sold in LA. Texas shouldn't charge you anything extra though.

    Advice on part location, air control valve internal washer

    I've got a switch in a parts truck. Shoot me a PM if you're interested.
