Home Depot has multiple lock sets keyed alike. Decent price too.

The valve lash had nothing to do with the blown head gasket. Any number of reasons could have been the cause. Warped head, weak gasket, overheating problem, wrong torque and so on. Use a good quality head gasket, get the heads resurfaced, correct torque and change your t-stat. Check the deck for...

Where did you order yours from? I am looking for one to use on the front bumper.

I have a tech manual for an AFKWX-353 GMC cab forward. It is a TM 9-809 dated May 27 1943. Lots of interesting info about these trucks.

I live in Yankee land and I can assure you that there are no preheating problems with oil in the pan with these filters. With any cold weather situation, you MUST warm up your vehicle before driving off unless you have a block heater and even then a 5 or 10 minute warm up is required for any...

How can there be any cons to a setup like that? Get them, I love mine!

Is the snow or ice any different now than it was 40 or so years ago when our trucks were new? Chains got the military where they wanted to go then , so what is different now except for ridiculously priced modern tires. I would stick with the chains and NDT's.

When Chuck Norris jumps in the water, he does not get wet. The water gets Chuck Norris.

Rule of thumb is 10 lbs of oil pressure to every 1000 rpms. So 30 psi and over your good to go.

The in-tank pump is there for a reason! It is a lift and push pump. It's job is to keep the fuel line energized. The injector pumps were not designed to pull fuel although they will. My deuce had the same symtoms as yours and I found the in-tank pump not working. It was running but not pumping...

If someone told you the pressures are the same in low and high range, they are mistaken! Just because it has low range , it does not mean the pressures are ok in high range. Trust me when I tell you I went back and forth with this same problem. I checked the pressures and it led me to a bad...

Switch on your " service lights" and then move the left side lever to "park". Your headlights will go off and your park lights should come on.

Reminds me of "Berts" Mil-Spec deuce and a half in TREMORS! Nice looking truck.

If you want to diagnose this trans problem, you MUST check the oil pressures in high and low range. That will lead you in the right direction. When my trans had problems, I went on e-bay and bought one for 40.00. You also need to get the trans manual that I mentioned in my last post on this...

Warren, I would definately want some set-up shots of my M-211 and my M35A2 together once the GMC is road worthy and painted 24087 semi gloss. I will PM you when I'm ready. My M35A2 was at the COMVEC show. Great turnout and well put on show. I wish we could do more rallys up here like the guys...

Warren, Great pictures of the COMVEC meet. Thanks for including my deuce in your slide show. Bob C.

Your fuel lines are moving around with the vibration of the engine. It would not be a bad idea to secure them or shield the ones that come in contact with other objects. The vibration after time will rub right through and create a leak. I have seen this happen many times with fuel lines, air...

The reason the fuel filter was getting dry is as the motor was being flooded, the RPM was dropping and the pump was not pumping enough to keep up with what the carb was dumping in. If you suspect a flooding carb, just look down the throat of the carb and you can see fuel dumping in. You should...

You can crack the line coming out of the master cylinder. If it frees the brakes, the master is bad. If that does not do it then I would jack up the truck to see which wheel or wheels are stuck providing the e-brake is not the problem.

I use Krylon. It works great also. I even carry one can of each color in my truck for touchup.
