    installing pto lever

    I must have one of those "bear to knock out" trucks. Been beating on it with a punch and a BFH to no avail. Edit: it's out! Really wouldn't call it a knock out more of a "cut here" line. Used the dremel and cut it in two halves then pliers to work them out, then had to go back and smooth the...

    Solargizer vs. hood star

    Yeah with the point facing forward it will fit fine. Thanks.

    Solargizer vs. hood star

    Here's a picture: red dots are the solargizer holes. Proposed star location is crudely drawn in a paint program (the hood is all in primer). Hmm, maybe my star drawing is upside-down? I thought the point went towards the windshield but I'll have to do some more research before I actually paint...

    Solargizer vs. hood star

    Maybe I was unclear--the holes are already drilled in the hood. The solargizer is already sure to be located there. The only question is, move the star down toward the nose of the hood, or else just paint the star under the solargizer. Either one is a compromise. I'm leaning towards moving the...

    Solargizer vs. hood star

    As part of my restoration I've swapped hoods. I loved my Solargizer and got a new one off ebay. When locating the new one on the new hood, I thought "Sometimes when I park facing north, the cab shades the solargizer." so I located it further out on the hood a few inches, not right up against the...

    Marine Huey

    Just got an e-mail from my local MVPA chapter, this huey is for sale. $175,000 NOT MINE and not an auction so I think this is OK to post? Contact info posted on Youtube vid is the same as current for-sale ad (although the youtube vid is over a year old)...

    Windshield Frame Seal

    Not sure which screws you are referring to? If you mean the screws that hold the windshields to the frame, I can go look that up. I have a bag of them in the garage.

    My M35a2 is from Kentucky!

    Not me but my deuce is also from that unit. I got mine at Boone Nat'l Guard base in Frankfort; About half the trucks in that auction were pulled from the auction at the last minute and sent to Alabama (Redstone?). I previewed them all beforehand; chances are I sat in your truck while it was...

    Fuel leak, over top of turbo, what is it?

    I've still never been able to get mine apart! Someone must have JBweded it or something.

    backlash on m35a2 pto

    I'm about to give this a shot. Visually, you're looking for "a little bit" of play? Not sloppy but not firmly against, either?

    Successful Deuce Recovery

    Wow--now there's a modification that looks very "stock." Nicely done!

    California to Kentucky

    I can't help you, but if you find a driver I may have some cargo for a return trip, from Louisville to Las Vegas anyway. Might help fund the venture if anything comes of this, so I wanted to get in on this thread. Thanks.

    Upgrade complete

    Maybe the search feature still needs some tweaking? I tried searching for VIC-1 and got no results, even trying a few different settings / criteria.

    Lock iinstead of delete sold items in Classifieds?

    The site upgrade looks fantastic, thank you. I was just re-reading the rules as you had wanted, and it occurred to me to comment on something I've been wanting to for a while: when Classified ads are deleted after the item is sold, we lose a valuable piece of information: what did the item...
