Old thread, I realize, but in my 5 years of deuce ownership this is the first time I've read about this (or at least understood enough to comprehend it). Just to clarify - if the switch (the 2 Packard connection plug) is located as follows then it has already been upgraded to an air sensor...

I sure hope you didn't just pull that cap for me to answer that. I was going to open mine (since I need to anyway), but I do appreciate it most definitely though. Now if we can dig up sources for that tabbed bearing nut lock washer and hub flange gaskets ;)

I don't own a HMMWV or an LED light bar, but perhaps my input on the Ibis Tek will be of help to you? I did put a 66" Ibis Tek light bar on my M35A2. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?125231-Ibis-Tek-Light-Bar-Install The Ibis Tek light bar has several flaws. First, internally...

Awesome, thanks Mr. gringeltaube! I do find it interesting that the NSN for the cup & cone sets you used here was the same NSN as used on Erik's Military Surplus (3110-00-198-1757) , but is different than the NSN Oshkosh lists (3110-01-298-9358). However, both use the same Military Part Number...

And just to help make this more complete for future searchers. Wheel Bearing and Cone Set: $30 NSN: 3110-00-198-1757 http://www.eriksmilitarysurplus.com/whbeform1m1m.html $28.71 http://www.oshkoshequipment.com/products/detail/160/3776/Trailer-Wheel-Bearing-Kit-for-M103-M105-and-M107...

After searching and searching online, I found Oshkosh claims to have the inner seal that fits (Item #20 from the previous exploded diagram). http://www.oshkoshequipment.com/products/detail/165/5041/Wheel-Hub-Axle-Seal $24.63 each Military Part Number: 7411429 Military Description: SEAL,PLAIN...

So to bump this thread, the M105A2 TM (TM 9-2330-213-14&P), page 4-81 (PDF document page number 137) section 4-49 "HUB, WHEEL, BEARING, AND BRAKEDRUM MAINTENANCE", lists: Socket, wheel bearing, 3-3/8" (the next figure appears that it'll need to be an 8-sided socket) (I find it surprising that...

That's awesome! Only a week of freedom and you're already parading it around. :-D

Maiden voyage with her new owner. I hope he stopped for fuel... She'll be back though. https://youtu.be/1egozqbvRm4

A rather boring video, but you can at least see and hear it moving a bit. I had to stop filming to perform my duties as ground crew - confirming traffic and neighbor's children clear. https://youtu.be/Y2W0VeK0ViI

As seen here, there's a big variety of what you can do for paint and restoration. It depends on a combination of how much time/money you want to spend and what your end goal is. Show quality restoration? Stop/prevent further rust? The true blue, unarguable truth is the more time/effort spent...

I'm putting an M66 Gun Ring on my M35A2. To what extent do the forum rules allow me to discuss the firearm to be placed there? Forum rules: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?84063-Forum-rules I'm sure I can discuss the gun cradle and costs, sources, fitment and possibly the...

Old thread, but I'm getting ready to rebuild an airpack and replace my master cylinder. I have some older DOT 5 brake fluid in a jug that is already amber (the container was opened a couple years ago). Is it okay to use? (What's in my truck is already amber, ie: old DOT 5). I honed out and...

Not to derail this Gun Ring thread, but it's the situation where the brake pedal gets more and more stiff until the brakes start dragging and eventually prevent the truck from moving. I believe it's air pressure that builds up in the air pack and isn't properly purging. It may just be a clogged...

HAH! Tell your War department that I'm sorry for the impeding divorce. :-P Well, the good news is, these 66" Ibis Tek lightbar kits aren't as expensive as what they were when I bought mine. But I'd honestly suggest some LED light bars (less big holes drilled in your windshield frame) - unless...

Driving with the hard top off the truck I could see how much the light bar actually shook and vibrated. I've removed the mounting brackets (which are aluminum) and I'm having them reinforced, strengthened, and stabilized. After the brackets were removed, I noticed one was already cracked. I...

I drove the deuce today without the top! That was a first for me. What an experience! I LOVED being able to see so much sky (it was heavily overcast). It was a very liberating experience. Though, I don't think I'd like it as much under a hot, bright sun. Today was perfect day to drive, a slight...

This statement really ate on me. So even though I've already spent all that time clean it up, and 2 cans of Red Ruddy Brown Rust Stop primer, I hauled this lower and the upper hard top sections to Affordable Sandblasting in Ogden, UT. I'm having him blast them and primer. It'll be done a LOT...

So an update here. This webbing is 1" wide, and takes about 40" to do both sides of the lower portion of the hard top. At first i was searching for the original webbing that went here, and forum member bigmike suggested Kevlar webbing. After a bit of internet research and comparisons (probably...
