I've heard the same bad things about using oil, Kenny. I use chassis grease.

A agree with Jason. Come to us for help getting your first truck, maybe even your third...but not to start a business so you can compete with the rest of us and run prices up.

I live in the DC area in MD. Contact me via PM and I'll try to help you find whatever you need.

BEAUBEAU: I try to use military filters when possible. If I don't have any, I use NAPA filters because there is a NAPA near my house. The primary filter is 3511 and the secondary/final is 3512 (this was stated above). The gaskets don't work, but I've found that you don't always have to...

Mark: Good point. We hear a lot about the success stories, although the trips that do not go as smoothly may provide more of an opportunity for others to learn.

I kept it so I'll clean it and reuse it again. It actually was not dirty, but I figured I'd change it anway since I was not sure it was the correct filter. Thanks for the info, Chuck.

Congratulations on your new truck, KX250M1. It looks very nice. Looks like you have a replacement hard top on it...anything new is always nice.

You may want to try Kevin Emdee at Star Electric. I buy a few from him every year at Aberdeen. He's had new ones and also had some like-new ones. I've bought both and can't tell the difference.

Pretty boring...I use only diesel and fuel conditioner only. Does using the other fluids (brake fluid, motor oil, etc.) cause you to need to change your fuel filters more regularly?

The places I've been you can look at anything that is already GL property, whether it is in a catalog yet or not. The only stuff I have been told to stay away from were the trucks/trailers that were not GL property yet. I think this echoes what has been said previously.

RE: Yes i got it from ID moter pool good eyes By the way, really nice looking deuce. I would love to come across an electric wiper motor kit without having to spend a huge amount of money...which probably means I'll be sticking with the air wiper motors for a while longer! :)

RE: Yes i got it from ID moter pool good eyes 101ABSniper: If you want a fellow Coloradian to talk to about trucks, check with D-MAN on this list. He is located some where near Denver. Dino is a heck of a nice guy!

Will these help you?

Many of us have driven our trucks right out of the GL yards. Most of us service the trucks before doing so and visually inspect them to ensure their safe operation. However, what happened yesterday has led me to think driving the trucks out of the yard, before conducting a serious safety...

I've owned many M35A2s and have changed the fuel filters on them many, many times. I've only ever seen the small primary filter. However, I just changed the fuel filters on one of my newly acquired deuces last night and came across a filter that filled the entire primary filter cannister...

Thanks for the response, AMTAK. I am going to pass. I don't really need a cab, but I would have been interested if they were for the A2. Thanks, again!

I was offline when this thread started. If I had seen it early enough, I would have gone out to count the spark plug wires to see how many cylinders the NHC250 has :wink: .

I can say that Robyn has been responsive to me. I appreciate her willingness to participate on this list. Most of us have had complaints about GL service and I, for one, believe that her participation is improving the service that we receive! Robyn: By the way, Justin and Mike (and Amanda)...

Robyn, with regard to ending Demil B&Q sales, would that involve the return of all such equipment in civilian hands? That would definitely impact your future sales...if people thought they would be losing whatever they won at auction. I have often worried that they might come for our trucks...

NORTHPATROL: It sounds like you've got yourself a couple of good trucks. Great to see your wife getting into the hobby. My wife has driven trucks for me from NC to MD on a couple of occasions (I was in another truck). While she does not do it often, she does like to drive them.
