RobDuece, what is the tank capacity? I guess there are less and less members even in the VFDs that can drive these trucks properly... Our department does not consider re-built apparatus as being new, so we really have no way of using a surplus truck.

TM 9-2320-361-20 shows the splined part of the shaft (the "inner" piece) as being attached to the rearmost yoke....but there is no mention that it has to be that way. The graphic/description applies to all propeller shafts, except the intermediate shaft on an M36A2.

Or, IF the new ones hold up, you will post only in a few years! :D

Can we see a pic of the data plate? Is it an original M109 w/w? Very nice looking truck. I also like the delineator panels....probably spent some time in Europe? No lollipop turn signals, though. Air assist steering...very nice!

How much oil are we talking about? My shutoff cover always contains a small amount of lube oil, perhaps two or three spoons full. It does not leak because the O-rings and the cover gasket are new. I put this down to normal IP lubrication. I can see this leaking out with a defective gasket or...

Ok, So I will modify my fix. I can use the washer that I welded onto the pipe flange to mimic the smaller hole; I will just remove the nut and bolt setup that closes off the hole in the washer. Thanks, rusty, for the clarification and the wonderfully clear schematics!! I had interpreted the...

I am rebuilding an LDS and feel your pain! Logically, you need fuel, air and compression for the cylinder to fire. I agree - I would check compression (seeing the injector needs to come out again anyway). Then check that the injector squirts fuel (or wrap a shop towel around the end of the...

Also check air filter for critters.

Someone has an LDT open and can take a peek or shoot a pic?

Nobody?

I'd find a place that does boat covers or truck tarps and have them fix it.

Any update to the performance of the Deuce with the kinks ironed out?

Looking at TM9-2320-361-24-1, work package 0036 00-3/4, illustration, item 16 (a bracket that also appears to close off an unused oil port). This appears to be a bracket that also closes off the third suction port of the oil pump that is NOT being used in the LDT, but is used in the LDS. Can...

Wow...air lockers front and back. Nice.

Yes, pics please. There are variations, some full metal, some metal and bakelite (don't like those). The shape does not matter, as long as it has the right thread. You did jumper the brake light switch wires to check that the lights themselves and, by extension, the circuit through the light...

Plenty of heavy stuff to bid on and then carry home on the back of your truck! It is to keep my truck running well, honey!

NAPA has civilian switches that also work if you do not want to wait. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?130915-Air-stop-light-switch-issue&highlight= or metal, if you don't want the white plastic...

I would think that a little time, a pyrometer and setting fuel delivery and droop screws to where they ought to be would fix that!:evil::naner:

This progressed to engine defect/failure. Engine swap time, then rebuild.
