They both sounded pretty normal to me. Might have been a little valve tapping in the first one. Can you get some sounds from inside the cab while doing the same thing?

Truck.

There are 8 CUCV rear bumpers, currently two are spoken for, $400 each. Ones not spoken for will stay home.

Can you post some pictures and some audio of the sounds you are hearing?

Creighton Abrams had at least five Shermans (maybe six) shot out from under him during WWII. He, and his crew survived all of those incidents.

My buddy John Peck will be bringing some stuff to the rally. I know he has NOS CUCV rear bumpers and jeep parts. The bumpers need to be spoken for before he loads out as they are large and heavy. Post AND PM (start conversation with me) if you have needs.

I think just about ALL of the stores selling paint CAN do the lookup, the employees have not been trained (or don't care) to do it. In my case I had printed off a two page list of 'common' colors in the FSS/US Government list (IE School Bus Yellow) and helped them find the listings under...

IHC Garand may be the hardest (most expensive) item to get, 336 thousand made, most 'disappeared' overseas via 'lendlease' in the latter 50's (300k Garands were left in Vietnam when we withdrew).

What this thread needs is the pictures of the deuce that was at the VA Rally earlier this month. It had a roll cage that went all over the front of the vehicle - from the front bumper to the bed.

I can always use batteries!

If you 'need' to do 60 in a deuce you will have to run larger tires than the stock 900-20's. Long time ago one of our mathmetically gifted members calculated the deuce at 2550 RPM's through the transmission, transfer case and the Rockwell pumpkins/axles onto stock, brand new 900-20 tires would...

You got a good pic of my back side. If I had been seated where JP was it might have broken the camera.

You waited to ask the question after I was already rolling towards the Rally (left Wed am around 7:30). Won't be back up that way till next year. That's OK since it will take a couple of days to dig them out. The two I got from Pvt Jarhead will be more than the others.

Adam is in Liberty Hill, but that's up near NC. Jeff might know someone in the Charleston area. You might also reach out to anyone in the Savannah, GA area, Poppop in the Brooklet, GA area is a possibility.

Thank you for posting the grommet information! Posted solutions can be as scarce as hens' teeth and your contribution to our overall knowledge is appreciated!

There are groups in Columbia, Aiken and the Greenville-Spartanburg areas. A few in the coastal area, Florence, Charleston-MT Pleasant. Go to the Manuals section, find the Deuce thread and download all the manuals, then start reading with GTA 9-1-185 (systematic Inspection procedure for the 2...

For those who are too young for the "Burma Shave" reference, there will be a series of three or four signs before the last two turns. The first sign will have "MV" on it, the next sign will have "RALLY", then the next sign will have "TURN" and the last sign will have an Arrow in the direction...

Were not any actual holes, just some loose spots where if not dealt with would have been rotted away in a year or two.

Coming in from US 29, the "Burma Shave" signs will usually be on the left hand side just before the store in Syria, and that's where you turn right, next set of signs will be on the right side just before the left hand turn into the trout pond field. HTH.

I painted the tops of mt shop vans with white elastometric paint normally used to patch roofs. Three coats on it a couple of days apart. Stuff is supposed to last 10 years, been on there 8 so far with no leaks. YMMV.
