    MEP-003a AC voltmeter Frequency meter Digital replacement?

    I'm thinking those gensets aren't quite stable enough, frequency-wise, to use a digital meter for that function without making one crazy trying to read it. It would flicker all over the place and drive me crazy. There is something to be said for analog instruments and humans.

    M35 REO GAS air lines help?

    Where your finger is pointing to the air cleaner is clean air to the compressor input.

    M35A2 air pack

    Wow, I've had some gallon cans of that stuff for over 30 years and never opened it. Will check to see if it is still there.

    Military connector crimpers

    The boot over the male pin can be changed by removing the "C" washer by pulling the male pin thru, and then pulling the wire back out. Slide the new boot on, reinstall the washer, and pull back. A tiny drop of brake fluid will make things fit easier.

    Special delivery

    I'd get that new flexplate Magnafluxed before installation from the looks of the old one. Cheap insurance!

    Deuce Rough Terrain Limitations

    Wait till you discover an old, burned out, rusty bedspring buried just beneath the surface. The discovery was I'd driven right over it, and it caught on a grease Zerk on the rear driveshaft, and rolled up just perfectly around said shaft, locking my M37 in place. All I had to remove it was a...

    Deuce Rough Terrain Limitations

    I've run my M54A1 all around the Yuma dunes with soft 14.00s and never had one pop open. It's not so much about PSI as how much flexion you see. 'Course a 5-ton is a might heavier than a deuce...

    Amount of oil draining through rear drive axle tube

    Reseal the groove with RTV not cork. Works better big time.

    Military connector crimpers

    I just solder them on. No biggie, as the silver plating takes solder like a duck to water.

    Deuce Rough Terrain Limitations

    I run tubes in 14.00-20's on 20-bolt 10" tubeless wheels with no trouble. Have for years, got tired of fighting leaks. Those same wheels usually run a giant piece of rubber tubing inside, that holds the bead outward against the rim. I don't see why one couldn't use the same thing with a...
