    NHC 250 Block Heater Inst.(PICS)

    That was just a one Becker. Yes I can remember the "water beer" days of college where Milwaukee's Best, Schlitz, Natural Ice, etc. were standard fare at functions. When I go to a Yankees game I'll actually spend the time to hunt down a concession or beer guy serving anything but coors or...

    NHC 250 Block Heater Inst.(PICS)

    For those with the 855 Cummins that encounter cold tempuratures, here are some pics of the required block heater. It can be purchased in 120V or 220V. The latter would draw less amps but would limit you on where you could plug in. The element is 1,500 Watts and the power cord is long enough...

    Rausch Creek CONVOY INFO

    SO WHEN DOES EVERYONE WANT TO GO? Friday or Saturday? Haven't heard on a preference. For those travelling North on I-81 after the event: I will be convoying with you up until Binghamton. (pitstop at Bingham's in Harford, PA. Great homemade pies and breads :P )

    Pointers on drill bit sharpening, pls

    If you look in the latest issue of Homeshop Machinist Magazine, there is an article that illustrates how to make a drill sharpening jig. The Drill Doctor appeals to a much greater audience though and is a very good invention. Gerhard, I enjoy your sketches. Do you ski in Bariloche?

    Road Trip from Ft. Riley To Denver

    Wow glad you made it home safe. That really stinks that you had to "modify" the trucks pintle. I can't believe you didn't have hearing protection. Congrats on the acquisition. What are your plans for the box? RV? Does the wind whip you around on the highway due to the increased profile of...

    5Ton ALT. DILEMMA!!(PICS)

    RE: Re: RE: 5Ton ALT. DILEMMA!!(PICS) If there ever was one word (not sure if its an actual word) to describe my thoughts right now... DUH!!! I was looking at the internal fan many times point blank range. Block head syndrom again. Thank you ACE, Recovery and others for your help.

    5Ton ALT. DILEMMA!!(PICS)

    Hi, Maybe you 5ton owners can share your input on this...Purchased a rebuilt alternator from CME Armature (took forever) to replace the existing one that doesn't charge due to always running on dead batteries from the previous owners. The NSN (2920-00-909-2483) and the Mil Spec #...

    M62 wrecker

    Talkin bout generators....Maybe you can help with a problem I'm having... My brother just purchased a rebuilt Alternator for his M819 from CME Armature. The rebuilt unit has the same NSN (2920-00-909-2483) and same Mil Spec No. (MIL-G-46795E(AT) but there's a problem. The rebuilt unit has a...

    One thing leads to another...

    I know what you mean devilman. How can you not tear that thing apart? Its so tempting. I'd be in a padded room if I had to restore anything piece-meal. I start twitching when I read an article in any automotive magazine where they put a brand new suspension or a new engine in a crusty car or...

    Rausch Creek CONVOY INFO

    Hey Cdub, Hmmm....what time? come to think of it, I never decided yet to go early Friday morning or Early Saturday Morning. (Friday afternoon or evening would be absolute murder.) Either day is fine for me and I would like to accommodate others so that we can have as large a convoy group as...

    Rausch Creek CONVOY INFO

    Lets Convoy!! :o The seven Ps and strong communication will make the journey as fun and safe as the destination. I hope everyone that is going will link up and convoy. I have little experience with CB radios (except for saying stupid crap to truckers on family trips when I was little :oops...

    Cut away aircraft engine pictures

    Is that from the Dayton AF Museum? Everyone should spend time there. Imagine being the flight engineer on a B-36. You'd have to monitor sparkplugs, magnetos, oil etc. for 168 cylinders.
