    crushable copper washers for M101a2 master brake cly

    The block is more specialized. Eaton/ Weatherhead/ Edelmann brass fittings would be the manufacturers to check. Croft might also carry the OE from Mendenhall who makes the surge unit. I only linked to O'reillys but I am sure Raybestos Catalog ( Supplies NAPA and most of the aftermarket) or web...

    crushable copper washers for M101a2 master brake cly

    Napa or any real parts store. These are common items for brake hoses typically on calipers as each side uses 2 . They do not have to be exact. As long as the banjo bolt passes through and the sealing surface contacts the ridges you can have some variance...

    M923 No Mess oil and filter change.

    There is a member in the classifieds with a bunch of T-filters, not sure if gasket included. A Florida member, PJ but can't recall handle had a ton of nos military fuel filters which are dinosaurs as not a common filter and pricey to boot. Oil filters can be very cheap for common replacement...

    M923 No Mess oil and filter change.

    Till Scar59 can get restocked, if you are in need check B -line. I checked with Josh and pricing is $85 plus shipping. No connection on my part but when I got my m923, they were the cheapest around. Looks like inflation and metal pricing had driven the cost up! Oil filter is extremely common...

    Assistance installing Mile Marker

    I had to remove the left caliper to reverse the control arm bolt as it was a tight fit. Which winch mount are you using? First style mile marker cradle with built in face plate or the later model separate flat face plate? I made a mistake installing the cradle style as I had the mm specific...

    painting over carc

    My experience with different coatings over carc has been mostly a toss up. I have used Behr latex paint, rattle can from krylon, Rust O leum, and others. It will initially stick but if there is bare patches of metal, the carc will start to lift at the edges with the other type of paint. In...

    LOUISIANA PROPOSED NEW LAW : HB 549 Provides for Military Surplus Motor Vehicles

    This is my opinion only. YMMV I don't think they are interested in pursing this matter any more as the new law clears the legal hurdles in their mind to the whole question. The original revoked vehicles will have a clear path to re register & New Registrations will be allowed in Jan. For those...

    Are 16.5” rubbers really that bad?

    A friend with the La National Guard also contacted me last week with the same info/warning on the goodyears as he was not sure which tires I was running. Very interesting to see the Wisc memo also condemning the rims and drawing no distinction as to what type, 12 bolt or 24 bolt D & E. Sounds...
