    "Do not park in gear"

    M60's are automatics also and if parked in park should not pull start. I know there is a way to pull start a '60 but you have to have it in a cerain state to do so and I don't think park is the proper state. A member of the museum up here also watch an erdolator engine run backwards as well...

    WTH, Found a tank today.

    I'm going to fire our museum's M60A3 up for the year on May 8th. A little PMCS and it should be good to go. They are fun to drive, even more fun to ride in. Worst part of them is having to work on them, everything is heavy, and very hard on the human body.

    Help!!! Front axle--(again)

    Is this the same on your replaced before? If not its possible this one was damaged by whatever you did to break the first one since you said that you were not doing anything hard on it this time. If its the same one then you should look at Ourverson like hk said.

    Putting yr deuce in a trk pull

    If possible do the following: 1. Weight in the bed of the truck as these things are pretty useless without weight. Sgt. Stewart on here used his M109A3 last year at an event and did pretty well due to the additional weight of the 109 box. Think there is a youtube of it as well. 2. Stay...

    daily driver

    Amen to that. If you think about it what this truck is capable of doing and the amount of abuse it will take and keep running is just amazing.

    Lets see your DEUCE!

    Here's mine, Big Mother. Now back to Westech's speedo, would be awesome if he could find a label with the words "Ludicrous Speed" (think movie Spaceballs) :grin:

    How to Remove Brake Master

    No brackets need removed, the plugs will help but its just a very tight fit. Try to angle it a little bit and work one side though, then the other. Thats how I got the one out that I was working on.

    bleeding master cyl

    Don't pump your brakes with the cap off the MC, you'll have oil everywhere. Make yourself a pressure bleeder out of a garden pump sprayer and your bleeding job will go much easier.
