    Gun truck driver

    I highly doubt it anyway. They'd have definitely been picked apart by now.

    Question on SF97's

    I'm just wondering about the timeline for getting it all handled. From the FAQ on the website, it says you must submit an inspection report to get an SF97. Am I correct in assuming that you can get the inspection done once you have purchased and picked up the item? In other words, you don't...

    Gun truck driver

    RE: Couple replicas When I was down at Maxwell AFB, AL in June/July I saw a gun truck there. A new one, from the most recent Iraq war. Couldn't get any good pics of it, though - it was way back in a fenced-off area. I found out later it had been procured by the Air Force Enlisted Heritage Hall...

    Crazy idea for filtering used oil.

    I like your crazy idea, Stretch! But it's got me thinking... if a washer doesn't have the RPMs, how hard would it be to make something that did? I've never seen one of these centrifuges in action so I don't know how complicated they are. Personally, though, from what I've heard... I'll...

    Testing, cleaning and repairing light multiswitch

    Re: RE: Testing, cleaning and repairing light multiswitch Well sure, if you wanna get all fancy-pants about it. ;) Heheh. Yeah that would probably be a good idea. I didn't have any, though, and I figure the springs in there are pressing the contacts together well enough that I'm not to...

    Stenciling My Deuce?

    For Vietnam era markings, read the correct publication here: http://www.armyradio.com/arsc/customer/pages.php?pageurl=/publish/Technical_Bulletin_746-93-1/Technical_Bulletin.htm It gives you all you need to know to correctly mark your vehicle for the time period. I used to have a PDF version...

    Testing, cleaning and repairing light multiswitch

    So as promised earlier, I've documented my teardown, cleanup and rebuild of my light multiswitch from my deuce. Hope it's helpful, and if there are any errors or suggestions definitely let me know! I'm sure this isn't the beat-all-end-all, but it should be helpful...

    Flipping the dish

    I can't imagine welding on the split rings is a good idea at all, nor do I think it's necessary. Not to mention complicating matters greatly if you do get a flat.

    Turn signal problem

    RE: Re: RE: I have the same problem? Ok, I got my multiswitch apart, and it could definitely use some contact cleaning! It's a bit of a pain to get apart (unfortunately the process involved some dremeling - nothing that will affect the operation but I still didn't like doing it) but once it is...

    Prelim feeler - Deuce Stencils

    RE: Re: RE: Prelim feeler - Deuce Stencils Yeah I know decals are approved, I just personally don't care for them, prefer to paint. I like how it looks better. Any idea on how much it would be for a full stencil set for a deuce?

    Transport Two Deuce Engines from Columbus OH to Western MI?

    Turn signal problem

    RE: Re: RE: I have the same problem? I brought my multi-switch down with me, looks like it's gonna be a royal biaaatch to get apart. Not gonna happen without some modification... but doable. I'll take pics and post progress...

    Prelim feeler - Deuce Stencils

    No idea yet. I'd have to talk to Gene. But he has said as long as you can provide the font or artwork, he can make it, up to the size restriction I mentioned earlier. I'm going to get him the correct font for this era, straight from the TB.

    Action shot!

    RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Action shot! Proof the front was engaged... :twisted: http://www.sikkema.us/Front.jpg Oh and the smallest vid was 13mb... though I think if I can find a program to edit/compress I should be able to get something a bit more managable. When I do I'll post here.

    Action shot!

    Re: RE: Re: RE: Action shot! It was engaged. It's not spinning in that pic, but if you look next to the front wheel, towards the camera, you can see where it had dug in on a previous attempt. Vids coming.... :roll: :D
