. Yes sir. In reference to your I was worried about the engine compressor keeping up with the demand. statement, YES., absolutely. You can generally run an air tool - specifically an impact wrench - for two nuts. Then stop and wait for it to build air again... Before you buy a high output...

. That's interesting. I added two air tanks to my M936 with the same intent. More air so it wouldn't work the compressor as much... The disadvantage is that it takes a lot longer to "build air" after you run a big 3/4 inch impact on it. It also takes longer to just crank up the truck with...

. The documentation offers up the answer of every 18 months. On the other hand, I doubt that you drive your truck 40 to 60 hours a week. Every other year should be way more often than required... .

. That sounds great! You can plumb them into the air system pretty easily too. .

. They should fit. At least in a M936, they fit just fine.

. Dang Right! Made in the USA... It ain't that hard to do it right! .

. I second the idea from @18operator . I imagine replacing the lines would be a better track to follow. It may be rust, it may just be crud. Chances are that you could blow out the crud with an air hose. On the other hand, if a line splits because it rusted through - you wasted your time...

. Yes Sir! I was a youngster (yeah, way back when) and my mom and dad and I went to the beach. Rented an apartment for a week or so. The kitchen had a gas stove. Pilot light went out. Dad turned the gas off for a while, then went to light it. It wouldn't "fire" so dad turned the burner in...

. Penetrating oil for several days. It isn't great but I try the screw, apply more penetrating oil, try the screw again (and so on). .

. I was gonna PM @Guyfang about the shiFt

. It looks to me like you have a nice heavy duty way to secure your box to the frame. The only thing I would like to suggest is more "travel" up and down. Only because of the flex in the frame... Of course, I don't have measurements. Your picture might be taller than it appears. .

. Yes Sir! I remember the JC Whitney catalogs. Yep, there was magic in that and the Shotgun News! .

. Looking good! Those seats - recovered - look pretty darn fine to me... Noticed that the interior got a paint job as well. Love the hula girl on the dash too! .

. Wow! Never would have "thunked" it was that way... Especially that a Deuce would have weighed in less than a Ford of Chevy! .

. Possibly get them to write it down - saying that you are insured at 12,000# or something similar...

. Sure looks like a sweetie to me! Happy to see it got painted back to green... .

. Sounds like a plan to me! .

. Dang @Rhino 5/4 , that looks pretty ugly! I mean some of it looks like a burn more than a bruise. Saw your comment about carpet burn from your britches leg - but da-yum! .

. That's a sharp looking truck - and the armor it is hauling is pretty sweet as well Matt!
