    New to Me AN/MJQ-18 PP (2) MEP-003a

    Kenny, actually he rented it from a local Home Depot. Cheaper than the fuel for dragging it 1400 miles round trip. Chris is a very highly skilled heavy machinery operator! That MEP-002A is 32.5 inches wide and the door opening is 34.5 inches wide. He made it look easy! I'm very happy for...

    New to Me AN/MJQ-18 PP (2) MEP-003a

    And as I write, Chris is headed back to NJ with a MEP-003 engine, two MEP-002 Generator heads, and a complete MEP-002 generator set. He promised to post pictures when he gets home (and after he gets some sleep), so probably in the morning.

    Behr Paint Jobs- Show me your MV's

    FSS 24084 is the semi gloss version, if it were flat it would be 34084. Tell the people at Home Depot to look up "Competitive paints", scroll down to find "FSS" (Federal Supply Service), select it, then in the number part have them enter '24084' and press enter. Then tell them how many gallons...

    t-136-27 ???

    Turbo deuce motor is rated at 139 HP, someone else will have to give you the max torque rating, but if I remember correctly the 5.9 Cummins can exceed it.

    Starting research ld 465 1c turbo upgrade

    25 psi of boost in an engine that is running 22:1 compression w/o a turbo may be asking for trouble. Just something to think about. If your foot is easy on the pedal, it may last a good long time, conversely if you are trying to set a record sled pulling, you might not make it to the finish...

    Question on turn signal

    Could also be corrosion as the housing is aluminum casting. I opened up a TA-312 once and it was like that all through the interior, closed it back up and sent it to surplus sales.

    M35A2 Transmission Fluid Change

    South west corner of the Tuscon airport (runway is north-south) if you look on Google Earth. I think it's "Teds Trucks" and pictures have been posted of it several times here on the site.

    16 bay TV antenna

    Since the TV signals are LOS, you will need to factor in the height at your location and the height of the transmitter towers, plus any obstructions between the two points. There is an on-line program/app that will give you directions from your location to stations within about 100 miles. Is...

    Pics of members rides in their parades

    Video from the 2020 Lexington, SC Christmas Parade. The MV's are about 24 minutes into the almost hour long filming.

    Dual wheels on front of a deuce

    MDMORGAN ran duals on the front of his deuce a number of years ago at one of the GA Rallies. That experiment ended when the front axle broke!

    Muddling through with gauges

    Some gauges run 0-60 and some run 0-120, depends on when it was made. If the gauge is reading correct, leave it alone!

    m35a2 no start

    FDC and the linkage in the throttle.

    Strange noise on m35a2

    Look in the tank and make sure it has fuel, then using 'soldier B' to flip the switch on, stand by the tank and see if that is where the noise is from. If not, try other places.

    Tip down VRC AS-3900 Antenna mount

    Tip down VRC AS-3900 Antenna mount

    Fair Radio in Lima Ohio probably has some, but then again Memphis Equipment, Eastern Surplus and a number of other site supporting vendors probably have a few, since the tie down is common to almost all the antenna systems. You may want to tell them what type of vehicle you want to tie down, in...

    Marine Corps 34052 Behr Paint Codes

    All the ones in the paint department I've dealt with were very happy to learn how to do that. Particularly after they saw they could match the Federal paint codes and could then satisfy 'all' government paint contracts (most all state and local authorities use the FSS paint code numbers - or...
