The pin is bent. Pull on it really hard. Order a new one from White Owl in Kinston, NC. Install and adjust as the TM describes.

So the distributor doesn't turn freely? You can rebuild them. Pretty simple.

I do. At least the Ga. Rally Facebook page. I post on the SS Facebook page but I'm not a mod or anything there (at least I don't think I am rofl). I get rally Facebook page updates on my phone so answers and posts are responded to very quickly.

Thanks. I am still running on the original EG22 relay I installed at the time of doing this. I have inspected it a couple times and one time, there was some condensation in the plastic housing. I removed the cap that I had installed and put a downward facing pipe on it so it could breath...

Still looking for someone with a bracket that's in a parts truck that I can borrow. Only need it for awhile, it will be returned to you blasted and in primer, ready for paint and re-installation. I will paint it for you if you want. It's a lot of work to get one of these out-the clutch pedal...

Good ventilation, lighting is very good (better in the summer), filtration is so-so. I have access to a friend's booth now, so I can shoot in the winter and for show quality stuff, I can control environmental issues, like dust and bugs. If I ever had the money to put up a big shop, I'd try...

It's 383, the modern CARC replacement. It looks like it has a sheen because the Gillespie looks that way for awhile (a few months) until it fully flattens out. Once it's been on for a bit, it is a surprisingly good match. It's a little smoother to the touch, but visually it's a very good...

I think that plate is more directed at payload capacities. A deuce on dualled 11:00's has so much more tire than the frame, axles, brakes, etc are good for that it wasn't even worth it to mark the dataplate with those capabilities. Dualled 11:00s:

Ok, before I ask someone to take their truck apart, does someone have one of these that they've already removed and hasn't gotten around to installing it yet? I only need it for a month or so and I'll send it back ASAP, I promise. Thanks

I have shot a fair amount of stuff in the last couple years and about 20% of it has been PPG DP40, which is kind of an industry standard but it's ferociously expensive. The other 80% (including this axle) has been a local company, Southern Polyurethanes; they have a line of epoxy primers. I...

You can also buy 24087 from Midwest Military in an excellent catalyzed urethane mix. The Gillespie is cheap and easy to shoot, but it's a single part alkyd enamel. IMHO it's a cheap, low quality paint (and before anyone thinks I am slamming their vehicles, 2 of my personal vehicles are painted...

Here is some raw video footage patracy shot with his drone. I edited 3 segments together. https://youtu.be/g44tPrhV9dk

Even though this is a closed thread, I want to add this info so that anyone searching who ends up here has an answer: Official 17GMVR dates are Oct. 18-22, 2017.

OK folks, I apologize for this taking so long. Everything I do with Durhamtown I do via email so that I have a complete, 100% record of what was discussed and sometimes this makes things challenging. Per D-town's email, official dates for 17GMVR are Oct. 18-22, 2017. I will update my...

Give me until Friday. Work is slamming me right now.

The US military would not accept a vehicle that wasn't to "spec". The vehicles you see that don't have the military turn signals or waterproof wiring are either export models for foreign militaries or what I think is the rare M44 series truck that was briefly marketed to civilian companies who...

Dave's M37 has a cracked exhaust manifold. I believe it's the factory engine.

If you find 2 of them, we need one.

I think it's to "store" lubricant and when the cable is stretched it sort of greases the cables. I think. Not a wire/rope expert. EDIT: I see Valence answered this with something that sounds more credible than my guess.

I don't know to be perfectly honest. I will say this-I still have the wire rope on my first winch, I bought 11 years ago and it was treated in 2006 or 2007 and when I work the winch hard and the cable gets tight, it still squeezes grease out of the fiber core, so....................... I...
