    Give me a brake! opinions please (UPDATE)

    Drove my Duece in a parade on Monday. On the way home (20 miles) my brakes started dragging. I forgot my temp gun but the hottest drum was the passenger rear. I could touch all the others. Got home and the rear pass wheel was smoking from brake drag. I cracked the bleeder and about 3/4 cup...

    Fuel pumps, fuses, and no flow

    I have my CD in hand and will also look for the answer in there. It's not user friendly and I might get my answer here before I ever find it on the CD. I just changed the primary fuel filter. I went to fill it with the fuel pump and got nothing. Should I feel the pump running? Should I be able...

    Shortening a 5 ton cargo cover to 2.5 ton 8 pics

    Wanting to cover the bed of my M35A2 I soon found that M35 cargo covers were not that easy to find. Plus a big risk with some NOS canvas is dryrot I'm told. Get them wet and hit the road and they come apart. I decided to try shortening a vinyl 5 ton cover by measuring, cutting and glueing with...

    Deuce air horns

    Happy new year!! I have the little bleet bleet baby jeep horn in my duece. I swear when the engine is idleing you can't hear it. I found some air horns off of who knows what.

    Any cold weather prep needed

    I looked around a bit but didn't see much. I did learn that the stainless brackets on my firewall were probably the ether cold start setup. I also am missing the canister. My question is what should I do for cold weather operation. I live in the pacific Northwest so our winters are pretty mild...

    I finially got around to pulling my transmission last weekend. Despite 103 degree heat I got most of it done in the early hours. Sure enough the disc is very worn along with the pressure plate. Heavy wear on the pressure plate surface. I did find one bolt missing from the driveline and the other...
