. The MAD (magnetic anomaly detection) boom out the back needs the least possible interference and the intakes on top is much like the B2 with intakes on top. Makes the plane quieter...

. Congratulations on your new toy! She definitely looks good from here...

. And the TM was marked up with a red magic marker :cool: to boot!

. Had to snag a few screen grabs - just in case people couldn't see these NEAT pix!

. Alcohol - Isopropanol has less water content. Goal is to remove the water, so the higher the number the better. Highest I have found is 99%. Worthy of Consideration: Alcohol dries out rubber. The more you use it, the more the hoses and diaphragms and rubber o-rings in the air system are...

. Real similar to finding vacuum leaks using ether... Then when you have a leak confirmed and the motor speeds up - a few squirts of oil on or on the spot around an intake manifold - firms it up even more.

. Agreed. Saw others after I posted that. Several were mechanical - operated with a wrench. Least expensive version that I saw was $150. Looks a bit flimsy...

. Wow that truck seems incredibly clean...

. Chances are that you have "hose crud" (decomposing rubber) getting sucked through the system. I would expect you to find that in the tank filter in mass quantities. Could be wrong, but hose rubber will eventually clog up the valves and the rotation manifold is going to catch a lot of it...

. Yes! And working for a company with a blue logo and three letters in the name - it was incredibly cool to have the printer room deliver a skid of punch cards to your office. That same amount of information would be stored today on a small USB drive. I also remember when we got dot matrix...

. So, I waddled out to the passenger door on my M1088 and also to the M1089. There is a data plate on the doors of both trucks. I have them both attached. Those numbers appear to me that they are the "off road"numbers - but it is my best guess at best. AND these are 6x6 rather than 4x4, so we...

. What about this... Spec Sheet is attached. Towed Load of 12,000 lb The thing that I don't know is if that stated capacity is on-road or off-road and I don't see that spelled out in the Stewart & Stevenson "glossy".

. And that Speed Limit 55 sticker on the drivers side fender... ?

. Neat! Available @ Northern Tool

. Looks an automated version of the Duckbill Hammer!

. Those portables were really useful. In later life, when the 286 motherboard had rolled over and died I did upgrades to several. I remember when the 486 and following that the Pentium (woooo!) boards and IDE hard drives made them into little screamers - that were "luggable lunchboxes" that...

. Any chance any of the materials with or near it might have the NSN number? With that number, you could know what it fits into...

. Hi TomTill84 , This particular thread was last updated in 2006 so you may not get a lot of attention here with your question. The 5-Ton vehicles like the M939 Series trucks that the Marine Corps use generally are specified with lockers in both read axles. Not a guaranteed thing in every...

. Not so magic... Just a marker that is either permanent or removable - generally used on paper. Yeah, they tend to bleed into the paint and stain it permanently. Guessing that it was a permanent (oil based) and repelled the next coat of paint. Magic Marker is a brand name like Kleenex or Coke

. That is what we have here in the printshop. Air keeps us (our machines) alive. Air actuated cylinders on presses and collators... We use what I call electric "puke valves" that spit air (or water) out of the bottom of the air tanks. Yeah. It makes noise but no more than anything else air...
