    Tried the $35 WalMart LED light kit yet?

    If I have to order the bulbs might as well order a direct omni volt system. I might just order a set of tail lights for about 25 bucks on flea bay and build a bracket and cable to accomplish what I need.

    Tried the $35 WalMart LED light kit yet?

    Tomcat, do you know what p/n it was. I'm looking at a tow set I can pickup that will work out of the box on 24v.

    Tire safety.

    Aerosol in the tire and light it. They do it in the arctic environments when seating a tire. Saw a video a while back with them doing it. I had to seat a tire and just used a ratchet strap around it, took the core out of the stem and it seated when I put air to it.

    Looking for a deuce, what can you tell me about these?

    :rules: & nopics If you were to retitle the thread as "Looking at a deuce, what can you tell me about these?" then it wouldn't have been confusing. Looking for, wanting to are reserved for classified. Don't post "HELP" unless you need help that moment, as it is reserved for emergencies.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Was moving the truck so I could mow the grass, perfect spot, good thing the neighbor wasn't home.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    It's because the voltage drops below the threshold to retain the presets during starting. Invest in a battery equalizer to keep both batteries up to par. Running the stereo and other accessories on the 12v side draws only on that one battery and unbalances them.

    Best way to clean and degrease?

    I got Zep Industrial Purple and used it the other day. Sprayed the entire truck, inside and out. Paint stayed, although it is carc so it's expected. Cleaned grease off pretty good. I did the heavy mix, 20 oz to 1 gallon of water. Picked up a 1 gallon sprayer to put it in and made applying easier.

    Replacing bearing races on the 923

    That how we did the bearings on the road wheel hubs on the m1. Stick a tanker bar in the exhaust grill, put hub on it, put tank in tac idle and wait a few mins. Take hub off drop in bearing and pour water on it to set it. Easy peasy.

    Quote for 929 from L.A to Jacksonville Florida

    Jeep, if it runs I'm down for another trip. Just cover fuel and bus ticket back. Trip would be two days and I'll cover overnight and food.

    939A2 keeps losing prime, no leaks evident

    JP-8 is all we used in the trucks. Unless you were doing a red ball mission and having to fill up at commercial stations, JP-8 was all you used on post for military vehicles.
