    Compressor Wrenches

    All I checked my PM's for the first time in several months..... Several membera are asking about the compressor wrenches I was selling at one time. I sold my last ones a year ago, and do not plan on making any more. Somewhere on the site (it is a lot different than I remember) there is a .pdf...

    Deuce and 5 ton in Georgia combat zone

    All A link that was sent to me by a good friend, a retired Army tanker who saw combat in Viet Nam. This is a Russian website I believe, showing the recent Russian/Georgian combat. There are some pretty graphic pics, so keep the kids away from this. Pics 75-80 I believe show a deuce and a half...

    Love Chapel?

    Well, here is a new one. My brother in law borrowed my deuce to take his girlfriend, her 2 teenaged daughters, and her parents to a fireworks show a couple of miles from his house. Reason given was that the area where the show was held was too rough for his Ford Taurus (plausible). As the show...

    Replace IP or bypass FDC?

    As you have read, my deuce is making its own oil, really thin and smells of diesel! Could be the FDC leaking, the hydraulic head, or the fuel pump. It has made between 4 and 5" on the dipstick in 200 miles or so. Not counting what it blew out and coated the side of the truck with. I have a...

    Making my own engine oil.......

    Drove the deuce to Atlanta today with a load of scrap. Noticed the power was a little down, attributed that to the 4 ton load. Got into town (60 miles) with no real issues, but I kept smelling hot diesel fuel. When I got to the scrapyard and got out, I see the pax door is completely covered in...

    M602, modified M35

    I bought a manual for an "M602, modified M35". TM9-2320-215-24P. I though it might be a manual for the Norwegian variant, I was wrong. This manual is dated 1958. It looks like a normal gasser M35. It wasn't until I looked through the manual that I found what the modifications to the standard...

    Deuce winch from Adelmans (Ohio) to Aberdeen

    Any member near Adelmans in Ohio? I want to get a deuce winch from them, but it needs to be hand selected to make sure it is a good one with good cable. Then brought to Aberdeen if possible. Regards Robert

    Ventilated Multifuel engines, Turbo or Non-Turbo?

    We have all seen or heard of the infamous #6 rod through the block on the Multifuel engine. Question: Is it just the turbo engines? Or were the NA engines subject to the same sort of failure? I was wondering if tapping the oil gallery for the turbo feed line had significantly reduced the oil...

    Any member in Wichita Ks?

    All thinking about bidding on a deuce winch in Wichita. Anyone there who could get it in a PU truck and hang onto it until I can arrange shipping? Maybe someone who is going to Aberdeen, I could get it there.

    Who needed the door mechanism for the Pax side?

    All My CRS (can't remember s***) is kicking in. I have a door mechanism for one of our members, and can't remember who I promised it to. Can the person who needed it please drop me a PM? Thanks! First thing that goes is your memory. Then, something else goes. I can't remember what that second...

    What would gen set owners recommend.....

    All I find myself in need of a generator, 5.5 to about 8kw or so. This unit will run my shop, and be used for back-up power for the house in case of a major storm. Now, I can use a 208 3 phase unit, or a 120-240 single phase unit. I would like to know what the owners of the various military...

    Mushroom size deuce vs. 5 ton

    Anyone know the size of the 5 ton Cummins air filter mushroom? I am curious if it is bigger than the deuce unit. Just a wild idea, maybe put on a bigger mushroom, mounted vertical. That would involve opening up the air filter canister to accept a bigger elbow than standard. I figure if I am...
