Actually, they are. In my younger days of changing truck tires on the side of the highways, I once got a call to change a tire on none other than the Oscar Mayer weinermobile in Pismo Beach CA. It was my claim to fame around the shop for a month. They gave me a quick tour...pretty sweet rig. And...

Hello, I'm in the process of restoring an M105 trailer (Vietnam vintage) and have ordered stars and stickers and such for it, bodywork, some paint, etc. I was wondering what I should use for the bumper numbers. I want to stencil these on. Did a little research and found on another MV website...

I admire your resourceful-ness in this situation. Especially using the Chevy door as a skid. Working on trucks is a lot easier when you're MacGyver!!!

Installed a pyrometer, boost gauge, start disable switch, took it for a spin with the kids and am running 850 degrees chugging down the road at 55, and about 275 at idle on pump diesel. Also installed a new air horn, had non military plastic toy horn with no electric solenoid that he dog...

Thanks for the reply. I'm looking for something inexpensive also and have looked into the bucket washable filters. I was hoping for something I can semi-automate and get other chores or tasks done simultaneously. Even if it's just 5 gallons at a time. I Have a pretty endless supply of wmo and...

Be interested in seeing what you got setup to filter your wmo.

ATF makes great deuce fuel. My employer's transmission shop lets me have some from time to time. I swear it runs better after a good road trip with some of that red stuff.

I bet that is what's happening too. There is no load on the Pto and the oil is spinning it. Just like how the transmission to transfer case shaft will slowly spin with the engine running and in neutral. Hook up a shaft and I bet that goes away.

Didn't really do much with the deuce this week, besides take it for a little drive and leave it in the driveway all weekend instead of the backyard RV slot in honor of 9/11. I did start the restoration of my M105A2 with the help of one of my little troops. Got most of the dents pulled and...

Rockys are a great smoke. Good all the way through.

Used to live in SLO if that's where you're from...I got to paso Robles once a week or so for work if you ever need anything from over this way, or shuttle stuff from other places nearby. I cover an account from coalinga to Ventura and San ardo. Yeah I'm an oilfield guy. Boy do I miss slo...

That's what I was gonna say

Took apart my extra Hutchinson super single tire and wheel assembly. I won 8 of them in a GL auction, put on 6, kept one for a spare, most likely will be selling my extra tire only without the wheel. It was amazingly easy to do. I was half expecting it to be as difficult as dismounting a cement...

Thank you sir. I had one of those 110v lincoln ones I bought 10 years ago for light metal work, I've kinda outgrown it so it was time to upgrade. Bigger truck, bigger welder!

Didn't do much with the deuce but a quick drive with the kids, but got a new welder!

Oh and the dank smell of canvas that's been locked in a crate for 42 years. The wife said I still stink 2 showers later.

Found a NOS canvas cargo cover with staves, corners, and bows. Decided to install it. Got the bows, staves and corners on, then the end curtains. After spending 30 minutes wrestling the top over the bows, and scratching my noggin on how the heck it gets tied down, a couple more beers later I...

If it came to a $400 price tag, I would have had to piece-mealed or DIY'd the entire system. I paid that for the TC itself.

I found a kit on the bay for almost $400. I ended up ordering from Eastern Surplus for the price you stated above. I found an old thread that said Saturn Surplus had them, but I contacted them and they replied back saying they sold all their M35 inventory to Eastern.
