    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    I'd like to see a pic of them lit up after you install them, including the BO lights.

    Does anyone have a dragon stencil painted on their truck?

    Some units have Facebook pages now. Maybe you could inquire there. This is really interesting and I'd love to know the origins.

    M123

    Oh my...look at all that workspace. I'm positively green. Where is all that bright light coming from? We don't have that here in Maryland.

    Is my M813 sprag sticking?

    As 162tcat says, the sprag only affects the steering axle so if you pulled the front drive shaft, you've eliminated drag from the steering axle. You say that you aren't finding any hot spots anywhere which suggests that nothing is dragging. What happens when you step on the clutch and coast at...

    Is my M813 sprag sticking?

    Flor- You'd better not just disappear after you purge your fleet. It would be a huge loss of knowledge.

    New M1008!

    LOL...did you re-mark that truck with the 13-ZR for "Zombie Response?"

    Is my M813 sprag sticking?

    Although the absence of air sounds during shifting from R to 1 indicate at least some kind of problem, how do you figure that you had some kind of drag rather than just a loss of engine power? I apologize for asking this, but are you certain that you had the transfer case selected for the high...

    Is my M813 sprag sticking?

    Ah, you're in the same situation as I am. (New (old) truck with deferred maintenance.) YOU have not rolled it in the opposite direction in gear, but SOMEONE may have, in its lifetime. In any case, these guys will set you right. I'll be following because I have the same truck, minus the lockers...

    Official NC Denton Rally 24-28 apr 2019

    If I can get my truck together in time, I'll try to make it.

    Is my M813 sprag sticking?

    Yes on the air sound. I'm new, and can't answer your other questions about flushing.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    My fender tops were painted with a rough, non-skid paint and then painted over with CARC. Obviously done by the military. I'm surprised they didn't do the steps that way, also.

    m939 Heater Core

    <facepalm> How in the world, is repairing a brass and aluminum fixture an environmental hazard??? I'm so green that my co-workers constantly tease me and even I think this sounds like gov't overreach.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    LOL...oh man, nothing says "I'm a bad---" like needing a winch to deploy and retrieve your spare tire. :)

    New to me A3

    Wow, that video was amazing. Talk about beating swords into plowshares. That farm really illustrates the scope of what it takes to feed 300 million people in this country. It's a little scary.

    Temperature guage problem

    LOL- "I touched everything." Yep, that'll do it. I hear your frustration. Eventually, you touch too many things, so you've introduced too many variables and you don't know what fixed the problems. The resistance values are great info to have in the forum.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    So...submitted my paperwork for tags and title. I should have my tags on Monday. Due to the VIN format, there will be a short delay, so I was unable to walk out with my tags. I made a cardboard blocker for the radiator now that temperatures are freezing or below. I found some info in the TM's...

    Will a humvee key switch work in a M-series truck?

    Please let us know if you move forward with this project, and if it works out. I like how the key is disguised as a switch handle. I'm of mixed feelings regarding installing a key switch- On one hand, it certainly adds a little security. On the other hand, I consider the lack of security...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I can understand the need for money. I'm from Cape Coral, originally. I drove right past you when I visited home for Xmas. I should have checked with you to see if you have any parts for sale that I could use.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Why the big purge?

    mixed dot 3 and 5 brake fluid

    With single circuit brakes, there is just no way to cut corners here. If you have a failure, you'll lose everything. It's a dangerous experiment to see if you can just push a different fluid down the lines and "see what happens." I just don't see how you can purge 100% of the old fluid without...
