I've done plenty of stupid in my younger years and just now in my mid forties realizing that there are some things you don't say, some things you don't put in writing, somethings you don't video and some things you probably put on the internet. I sure the guy was younger than I and as I'm a late...

Glad everythig worked out. When I was a teenager a friend called because he knew we had a towbar. His car wouldn't move and we hooked it up and started draggin it home. About a 1/4 mile from where I hooked him up I saw in the rearview mirror as the left rear of his car dropped and I saw that...

I love the videos. I also hate when a post like this goes negative, its not really what this site is about. It has always been my interest in the vehicles and exchange of knowledge about said vehicles that keeps me coming back. I can get negative feedback everytime I go to work or go to a...

Welcome aboard and thanks for serving! It takes dummies like me months to find all the info here and I still have to ask the questions, but the answers are here for most. My cousin is active in the M715 zone site as he has it and a Deuce. It probably has more specific info on that vehicle, but I...

Welcome aboard! Are you looking for one? littlebob

Welcome and great to see new members! I'm still learning the computers myself. This forum has educated me a lot on everything related to MV's and forced me to learn how to do more with the computer. littlebob

I can't open, enlarge the picture. I have a similar problem. MY air pressure switch was leaking I took it off and capped it(son did it he's smaller). Is this whats in the picture? I want to get a replacement before I get it on the road...

When I got my M51 from wreckerman and pulled it behind the Suburban in 40-50 degree weather it had been sitting for a little while at his place and probably a long place somewhere else. It took a couple hundred miles to get it up to speed. I started out feeling uncomfortable at 45, but was...

We have something like that to access a vendors system and once I found out how complicated it was, I just bring my problems with that vendor to the two that already know how to use it. If its the same thing, it is like a little pager that tells you a code to enter to access the site that...

There has to be a right answer and maybe it's been said already. I had to do some welding on my M35 cab and flanged some joints and butt welded the ones I could find a way to clamp them. If your a novice welder like me, you will get frustrated with the thin rusty sections of the surrondind metal...

I agree, It looks like the 34052 I'm painting mine with only faded. littlebob

In reference to my earlier post on this, I had the radiator rodded out and it still overheated after idling a while(10-15min) I changed the thermostat and it seems to be doing OK at idle. I still have a a few more months before I actually put mine back on the road and see what it does there. I...

Lane, Welcome aboard and feel free to PM me if you have any questions you think I can answer. I've only met a few of the locals so far and all seem to be good people. I think there is someone up in mid LA that has been buying some from auctions around Pineville area and that might help with...

I went to put on the hood today and found out the air cleaner hold down on the right rear interfered with the hood. The cab is a newer one and the old one is from a gasser. I can see where the rear support was cut to fit but what does the proper fix look like? littlebob

I've been using the air compreser wrench I bought from someone on this site a while back. While you have it a part check for the old style brake retainers, I'm still in the middle of going through the brakes on mine and the leaking cylinder had a loose rear shoe because of them...

Thats what I was thinking too. There are only for bolts holding the cluster thing to the dash and should be easy from there. littlebob

Have to admit that part of it was a guess. I have had DC problems that frustrated me for long periods of time, just trying to point out a posibility. Thanks for eliminating that one. littlebob

My Dad told me of a swimming story in a DUKW when he was stationed at FT POLK that had similar issues. Great job on the restoration and hope to hear its on the road soon. littlebob

Check to see if the bulb is blown if you haven't already by checking the resistance between the ground terminal on the bulb and the high and low terminals. If the have continuity on these your bulb is good. If the bulb ids good you have a bad connection on the + or - side of the wiring. Most...

If it gets up high again next summer, people will get creative and and LEO will probably be forced to check more by some new law to collect revenue. littlebob
