M35-tom or someone with a similar name has a fix for second gear welding along with a taller OverDrive for the trans. For second, he has a roller bearing that goes between the gear and the shaft. I've not ordered one of his kits but reading his posts about his research into the trans, he'd be...
Mine used to do that from time to time. I feel like you have an injector sticking open. An older gentlemen advised me to pour about 2 gallons of fresh 15W40 in a tank of fuel. Between that, some 2 stroke oil, and some PS Diesel Kleen, it doesn't do it any longer. I've got AC 60G's installed...
If they allowed political views expressed freely on here, we'd dissolve into different factions pretty quickly rather than simply discussing trucks of many makes and models. The site is geared towards old military trucks, nothing more, nothing less. What happened today, just turn a blind eye...
Justin, does it have the single digit display or the dual digit display? Which one do you have and do you suspect it is Tango Uniform? If so, let me know what you're looking for and I'll see if I can find one.
I found this funny on Pirate4X4 when googling "steelsoldiers hacked" earlier today.
Got the same one this morning...
At first I was all, "**** yes! Steel Soldiers sponsored revolt?! FTMFW!
Then I was all... "Awww ****... the internet fags are at it again."
"Redistribute wealth".... ****...
We've got a project going on that involves pulling the armored cab off of MK-48's and John Deere 644E scoop loaders. The remaining chassis will go to DRMO. The original sheet metal cabs went to DRMO about a year ago and had to be crushed prior to removal. Talk about Waste, Fraud and Abuse...
My motor's a New in 92' Hercules with a 120 psi gauge and sending unit. Cold, 90 psi whether at idle or governor so I suppose the pressure relief must be set at that. Warm, 20 or so at idle and almost 60 going down the road. Some say that's low but it's run hundreds of hours with no issues...
I've personally had Deuces without the steering wheel tied off go to full left or right lock in slower speed turns. Even with the prime mover being an M936A2, the Deuce will create quite a headache on a flat tow without the steering will tied off when it goes full left or right on you which...
Firestone T831's indeed. They look great but a word of caution, when you put radial tires on a Deuce, they tend to wander around the lane a little and require quite a bit more attention and steering corrections when driving down the road. The solution is to modify the caster plates between the...
An update for the masses that love 6.2 powered HMMWV's, that truck that hydrolocked it's motor twice blew it's engine recently. It spit 2 connecting rods out of the oil pan. It now has a GEP 6.5 N/A in it's place. The truck survived 5,000 miles of driving and many month's of idling after the...
use air lines between the Deuce Prime Mover and the Disable 5 ton, turned up, the Deuce can get it to about 50 on the flats. For the turns, keep it slow but I'd rather tow a 5 ton behind a Deuce than a Deuce behind a Deuce because the 5 ton will turn with you. A Deuce will turn the other way...
I run 50% filtered WMO or WVO. Diesel is over $4.00 a gallon and the new diesel doesn't have much lube in it and causes problems for my truck. Mine actually runs better and doesn't hang an injector up with oil in it. I may be past 50% depending on how much WMO or WVO gets diverted from my...
PM me an e-mail address, I'll send you the powerpoint slideshow detailing "normal" operation as well as the TM's for the HSHMC-25 when I get to work tomorrow.
You can drive a HSHMC-25 from the upper cab, you're just limited to 1st gear and reverse only to do "pick and carry" ops. One time we had one that would only engage throttle from the upper cab but the steering and brakes wouldn't work from there so I steered and braked from the lower cab and by...
350 to 375 since German keyboards may not reflect correctly based on my last post. Kudo's to you for knowing a second language and thanks for not speaking German. Otherwise, I would have not been able to post much of anything of a response. Not out of being a pain in the tail, I just wouldn't...
Oh, so it's about #%& to #&% foot pounds then!!! You'll need a good extension on the torque wrench to get that much. So the Op does some searching, the symbols I used are at the top of the numbers on his keyboard in my post.
Sure ya will...just like you sold me the south half of Albany and promised everybody would move when I showed up!:roll:
They called me a liar...said I didn't buy the place and threw me out!
I sold you the south half of Albany, New York!!! Go up there and ask them, you are the proud owner of a...
It shouldn't make a difference whether you know the lady's in the tag office or not. Problem with CUCV's is they have an actual 17 digit VIN that is recognized as "Military" in most database's. Without a title, the lady's have to operate outside their normal routine to work on issuing a title...
I have dib's on the pretty girl in SCcowgirls giving hugs this year at the rally!!! You Lose WM and I Win!!!. All BS aside, congrats AM, you have yet another MACK conversion on your hands. I wish I could find one, they sound so nice driving them. I've only driven 1 and it's a gun truck but...
32,
Title. The lady's in the local office actually know how to do this without an SF 97. They just have no obligation to on a truck that more than 25 years old. I went to school with the girl that titled my CUCV. It was easy for her, she caught heck trying to get a tag for my deuce but...
