    Look what I found in the defroster vent!

    This reminds me I need to tear apart my heater duct work and find out what smells dead in there and fabreeze the snot out of it!

    Would this look Lame?? Your Opinion Please

    I might be tempted to pee in it... :beer: I think it looks fine, but I'm not one who cares to restore my vehicles to original. I "resto-mod" to make things more useful with upgrades.

    Bone head award

    I'm always careful when standing up after crawling out from under the deuce, but then I forget I left a cab door open or the tailgate down and stand up right under that. WTF :mad:

    Secondary Fuel Tank

    I got the tank mounted, hoses connected, and wiring done. Under the fuel gauge I put the ON-OFF-ON switch that changes between tank sending units and right next to it is the ON-OFF for the secondary fuel tank pump. Ironically, after all this work, I still don't have a working sending unit in...

    Secondary Fuel Tank

    Thanks for the clarification Jake! Attached are pictures of the plumbing I did to both tanks. The first picture is the secondary tank and the second picture is the main tank on the truck. I couldn't find any pipe fitting at Lowe's to fit the 1/2" flare line coming out of the pump in the...

    Secondary Fuel Tank

    I got the rebuilt master cylinder and a short air pack installed tonight and will bleed tomorrow. I also spent $30 at Advance Auto parts for switches and hoses and $30 at Lowe's for plumbing for the tanks. I got everything plumbed up and ready to go. If the brake bleeding goes smooth tomorrow...

    Secondary Fuel Tank

    I couldn't afford to put clean diesel in both my 50 gal tanks just any day. That would set me back $400 - $410 around here!

    A few questions about DOT 5 and what TM I need.

    There are enough people converting to DOT 3 without their trucks exploding that you can at least admit it can be done properly, so telling people they absolutely must use DOT 5 is not true. Yes, it was designed to use DOT 5 for military purposes. I'm modifying my truck to work for my needs...

    A few questions about DOT 5 and what TM I need.

    I understand the truck was originally supplied with a DOT 5 brake fluid system. Do you understand that a DOT 5 system can be converted to DOT 3 when the proper steps are followed?

    Secondary Fuel Tank

    I want a smooth look, and as much room in the bed as possible. I'm excited to work on it this weekend! I might even skip going to the bar!

    A few questions about DOT 5 and what TM I need.

    True, but that little sticker can be removed. :deadhorse:

    A few questions about DOT 5 and what TM I need.

    I also am running DOT 3. Whether I plan on it or not, I seem to be doing brake service once a year so why not go with the fluid that is $15 a gallon at Walmart (made in USA too). With everything apart you're in a perfect position to flush and fill everything, as you should do when switching...

    Cost of M35A2 465 Diesel motor oil and filter change??

    $596 for a 55 gal drum of Rotella at Sam's Club. That is $10.84 per gallon. Not too shabby but I would hope for more of a discount on that quantity.

    Fuel Delivery Valve Screw

    Better stop posting wanted ads in the normal forum or you're going to be banned, and you have to pay to use the classifieds. Try ebay or call Kublos surplus for what you need.

    Data Plates Arrived

    I just ordered my M35A2 W/W data plate from them and it is even marked as Kaiser-Jeep. Perfect! $6 less than David Kelone. I hope he buys a nice steak dinner with the $31 I sent to him and he gets the worst diarrhea ever! I would open a dispute in paypal but I didn't send it as a payment for...

    Secondary Fuel Tank

    I'll be working on it this coming weekend hopefully. Pictures and instructions will follow. I have a master cylinder and air pack to rebuild and install first. What good are dual fuel tanks if you can't stop?

    Recovery next weekend...

    I played with firewood fire a short time and I never could get it to work out financially to make it worthwhile. Keep in mind, unless you have a locker in the differential, you need to tie your rope or cable to both tires on the same axle to pull yourself out using the methods mentioned...
