Just bought the truck from the GL auction at Camp Dodge. I don 't know if the IANG policy is to drain them each time or not. The other tank doesn't have any issue. I don't really have a feel for how badly it's leaking but I guess worse case scenario, I'll do a compressor swap once I loose...

This is the only one I've ever had. Don't know what it's for. Any ideas as to why it is located on the top and not the bottom? Thanks Jason

Happy Easter Spent some times with the iron today. ONe of my bleeders on the air resevior is leaking what appears to be oil. Don't know jack about the air system and hope some of you do and wouldn't mind sharing. What's the issue and what does it take to repair? Thanks Jason

Couple more things. If the in tank pump is working well, it should squirt out of the bleeder on top of the sec / final filter housing with a pretty good stream. I've loosened the fuel line under the radiator where it attaches to the frame. This is very simple. Turn on the master and...

Could be an in tank fuel supply issue w/either a hole in the fuel line...which I've had or the pickup screen on the tank pump. Add a couple of gallons of fuel and see if the prob. goes away. As soon as it dies, kill the master and then check the fuel level in the secondary and final filter...

Forgot to include that the first truck had 2 spring seats. Never been in a deuce w/bucket seats before and not really sure why they would have done that.

Hey guys, been searching threads for the past two nights. Found lots of good info but my newest truck has a paint job that is close to but not exact to many of the pics in the associated posts. This ws purchased from the Army so I "assume" it is a standard addition paint scheme from one time...

Sir, I must say that you have major ambition.

I don't know how you guys can get the hood up and mess w/the horn while it is going. My Dad tried to scare the kids a few weeks ago and the horn stuck. I attempted to get to the hood but that horn is like an offensive weapon. I couldn't even make it to the hood. I ended up going around and...

...but it would make such a big and fun reactive target....I'll keep you in mind and thanks for trying to help be resolve my issue.

Funny you should mention it b/c actually, been there done that too. I was in the AF Honor Guard and was the designated loader. I owned my own Garand and had more practice than the other folks. I don't get tricky or fancy as no one is ever shooting at me while loading. I use two hands from...

Gastrap, nice looking truck. I wish we could have coordinated a bit. My green truck has a brown windshield and your brown truck has a green. I suppose a paint brush and oz. of paint will be easier than swapping. Good luck and have fun. Are you closer to Clinton or to Des Moines? I know of...

Well I may not qualify for a Darwin award but I did pull a dumb numb thumb. We've all heard and learned and read not to have your fingers or hands inside the stearing wheel while driving non-power steer vehicles. I was about 10 feet in the timber (as in the rear duals hadn't even made it to...

Rat, being that you bought this truck, maybe you know what the camo paint job is called on your truck? I won one with the same paint job and one w/the "normal" camo paint job. I've heard reference to Viet Nam camo and woodland which is more of the normal version similar to our old BDU's...

Awesome to hear your "booty" was still in the tool box. I made out well on one too but the others were stripped post auction. I also had a -10 in the glove box which is much nicer than sitting on the puter to read it. They don't mind the wrenching in the parking lot most of the time. I...

Biggles, you should be able to fill out page 2 of your invoice and get it to the truck driver ahead of time. I've had 6 trucks and trailers picked up w/out being present. Have you talked to the truck driver to be sure he is OK with dealing with the paperwork, time, and starting and loading...

The good news is they couldn't drive the truck out with the broken drag link. Had you staked it out for a few hours the next crooks would have shown up with tools and had the link off...then you jump them and take your truck back having had the work completed. Listen to all of us cussing some...

Welcome aboard. These things are contagious. Either get out while you can or prepare for the toys to multiply and the cash to vanish. M35A2s are my "crack" and Steel Soldiers is my pusher.

Outstanding. Looks like a nice set of pickup gear and all in all a good trip home. I don't know why people snag gear off others trucks. I'll admit to using a tool or two out of a truck but then I put back in the truck they came from. I'll also admit to the temptation to keep it but I know...

Tie, if you are only thinking of leaving one for a few days, you could always leave it where it sits. You have two weeks to get it out. I did that at CD with 105s. I cleared it w/both GL and CD folks and they didn't have a problem. My EUC has cleared but I'm looking like next week at this...
