    Please help me make a plan to Move from Tampa To Chattanooga with shipping containers.

    Have to do the math. Steel shipping containers, if you could get them, are way MORE than expensive right now. All that shelving I see breaks down to pickup truck loads. You are going to re-arrange it all anyway. For all the small heavy stuff you can mail 700lbs of stuff in 10 boxes for $219...

    Water & Metal Chunks in my M52-A2 transmission

    What went into the {new stuff} transmission with fluid changeout? Did you ever change it before? Have you been using the truck it or has it "sat" and you just then changed the fluid?

    Funky steering

    Remember two things DO NOT mix different flavors grease. That action is detrimental to expensive parts. Also the "BOOTS" correct terminology is Dust boots. Not oil, grease boots. When One pumps up the grease in the front end fittings One MUST remove the "goessoutah" fitting as per the TM. Many...

    Deuce Jack Safety Questions

    In very few cases one must run the truck with it on stands. Attach a little compressor to the right rear gladhand. It is mo quiet and safer that way. Change some fittings put a tee back there.

    Survey...... "oil line of death 3116" (governor oil feed line)

    I made a lot of money in my life brazing and un-brazing things, especially on jet engine multi-fuel manifolds. Made quite a few inventions for myself to do it all better and easier especially on the flow bench. So this story interested me a bunch but I finished now, {don't even have a CAT 3116}...
