    Second the thoughts on the generosity of BH and many others who are always so willing to share thier passions with others. little bit of wood? There was half a forest stacked there on Friday!

    Yep, unfortunately had to leave around 2pm on Saturday to get to the Kings game, but had a blast and several people earned thier man-card with my new clean up tool! :)

    Had a great time (even without my M109) and it was great to see you all again. Wish I could have been there longer (especially since the Kings blew the game I went to) but had fun while I was there. Can't wait for the fall!

    I'd love to see how yours is hooked up as the instructions I got simply don't work with the cables I have. (instuctions say alt is connected to starter relay, but I have no such cable on the truck and that wouldn't use the cables that I do have)

    Guess no one read that my gauges DON'T work, which is the reason I won't make that drive. Recharging the batteries wouldn't be an issue since I have a gen, but driving with gauges like temp and oil not working correctly is not something I'm willing to do.

    At this point I'm going to just drive up in my car tomorrow and spend the day cleaning up, might spend the night but sleeping in the Saturn doesn't have the same allure as the combat camper. Just have the feeling that if I try to make it up there in the truck it will turn into a nightmare with...

    Not my idea of fun to drive a 45 yr old truck without a working oil pressure gauge. Sure I might make it on the batteries and could certainly recharge them once there anyway off my generator...but don't like risking exploding the motor if something else went wrong and I didn't know until it was...

    That's kinda my problem, have a new 1 wire alt, but it doesn't jive with the wires I have. I can hot wire the truck to get it running (using power to the small wire they say you don't need) but output doesn't seem correct and gauges are screwy.

    Not even sure it is "parts" at this point unless I scrap the current plans and go back to a gen and voltage regulator. I have the new alt installed and put on the 60A alt conversion kit, but the alt and kit don't seem to jive as far as the way things are said to connect and electrical...

    The weather isn't an issue with the M109, but sadly it looks like I'm not going to have it running so I'll be coming out in a car. This means I'll be there Friday if it isn't raining or Saturday and will probably just stay for the day to do a little cleanup.

    I didn't wash mine, still trying to get it running. If I can't get it going, then I'll be out there sometime on Friday in my car (really slumming it compared to the M109).

    Tannerite cannot be saved, it goes against its primary mission which is to entertain by no longer existing.

    No Class B required for any housecar (motorhome) under 40ft in length. That's how I have my M109 registered and can drive it anywhere, anytime with no restrictions.

    Wonder what the insurance on such a venture would be? Nothing like putting 13,000 lbs of rolling steel in the hands of someone unfamiliar with it. But since you technically need a Class B license, I guess they should be covered.

    Alternator is installed, but still waiting on the cables (60A Conversion Kit) before I can hook anything up and know where I stand. Have the kit ordered from 2 places but TNJ Murray seems to not respond to emails or voice messages so I don't think they have even sent it at this point, the other...

    Murphy is no more, I used my new cleanup tool on him. I blame the wife for getting a bonus...extra cash = extra expenses.

    Yea it was one of my planned upgrades, just didn't expect it to be an emergency upgrade.
