expensive ? I was going to use those 3 way adapters, but by the time I priced out how many I'd need, it was way cheaper to make harnesses (1 for each front light, 1 big one for the rear, run along the existing harness). I used the regular connectors to "T" the new harnesses in where there was...

:ditto:on the help. I'm near downtown. Definitely lucky on the weather ! First cool (ish) front of the year last night... A small note- if the picture shows how your bed cover is currently on, the corners are backward. Fronts lap over the sides, sides lap over the back. Keeps the wind from...

That is the hose I used, I replaced all of mine, including all the little short hoses (been on for about 6 months now) - 5296k411, 1-3/4"ID, 2-18"OD - qty 1' 5296k421, 2"ID, 2-3/8"OD - qty 1' 5296k321, 5/8"ID, 1"OD - qty 12' (heater hoses) and, because they did not have the size- 5285k139...

The un-average trip to home depot: When you tell the home depot guy you want 3 pallets of pavers, and he asks "You do know they weigh about 3000 lbs each ?" It's real satisfying to say, "Yeah, just bring em out on the fork lift, and I'll bring my truck around..." Happy kids: A giant toy for an...

:ditto: The ridiculous prices I got when I called around is why I did all 11 of mine (11x20's) myself, but I'd love to know a shop that would do it for a reasonable price. I have no desire to ever do it again ! Make sure you say "lock ring" not "split ring" when describing the wheels, no one...

Thanks for the pictures, that matches my wipers. Old ones had the double looking hook, new one (from Erik's) had the single hook. The single hook has been working fine for a year. The metal part of both of my old ones was in good shape, no rust, so I tried replacing just the rubber. Pulled...

With old British cars, we have mixed some of the rust / scale cleaner products (I think a brand is CLR ?) into the water and let it soak a bit. Helps loosen more of the rust and crud. Make sure all the metals it will contact are compatible !

armored I like the up-armored ones... (stolen from olive-drab.com)

Congrats on the successful recovery. Yea, I didn't mind when we got a little "lost" on the way out, head was in full swivel mode !

here's one http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/133-great-list-picking-up-your-deuce.html

Harbor freight has a 3/4 impact set with the budd and 1.5" sockets (and a bunch of other sizes).

That's at 27106 Northwest Freeway (Hwy 290 at Mueschke Road) Cypress, TX 77433 north side of 290, just after Mueschke right ? Just opened ? (looks like not open yet in Google satellite, just a driveway in street view ?

Red River recovery experience Don't plan on taking pictures on base, in fact they generally want you to check any camera's at the security checkpoint, but I think they will let you keep cell phones with cameras now. Several threads here on what to expect, Red River is definately the least...

convoy from Houston Justin, twofive.M35 and I discussed meeting on 290 at 8:00 am on Saturday morning. (posts 55,57, 59 I think). Didn't set a specific place on 290 yet.

Yep, make your own. Gasket material from any autoparts store (I used the felpro blue stuff for cooling gaskets). I used "freezer paper" (plastic coated paper from the grocery store) to make a template, then cut out the gasket material with a sharp pair of scissors and a hobby (x-acto) knife...

Don't be too quick to blame the light switch. Almost no lights on mine when I got it, swapped in a new switch, no better. Dug into the wiring and found a combination of burned out bulbs, broken wires and bad grounds. Whoever was responsible for the maintenance of my truck in the Ark. NG did...

Another note on the pictures, none of the 920's listed as "vehicle runs" had engine pictures at all.

possible help from Houston As I posted over on the "who got what" thread... _________________________ "I was so glad when I got priced out of the Pineville M920's and M916's! Avoided a huge argument with the wife and my internal list of things I need to do ! If anybody from Houston did get...
