From my limited experience, there are a couple times when the split ring can bite. The first is a ring failure during air up. This can be caused by failure to seat the ring properly or maybe failure due to previous damage at some time during its service life. The other possibility is ring bites...

I like the spin on but they’re a bit above my pay grade.

I won’t be using them for my truck. Lead’s a bit too toxic for me to deal with outside of reloading. I don’t plan on using them for anything except maybe for my black powder musket. My question was to see if these are the lead used for that application, or maybe something else? I know that...

Op check good. Started right up with plenty of power.

So Everstart 27’s with 830 CCA will hopefully fit. At least that’s what I’m getting. If it doesn’t work, Walmart allows returns with receipts.

Is the Everstart H6 or H7 correct for the M35A2?

I’m unfamiliar with McMaster Carr. Are they a military supplier? I’ll take a look at their products. Thank you for the heads up.

Success! I entered “plastic cap and plug kit” in eBay. There are multiple sets with a selection of the same standardized plugs the military uses. One thing I need to pass on, in my experience, paint doesn’t stick to these plugs. Again, in my experience, when I used these, I wasn’t concerned with...

I too have a 1009. The antenna holes in my truck needed to be filled until I gathered the materials to reinstall the antennas. I took two oversized grommets, two large washers and a bolt through them which sealed the openings. Looking at your picture, it appears that a common plug was used to...

Not sure where to put this. I thought there was a vehicle spotted thread… Anyway, today was Military Monday at the Cheyenne Frontier Days. In honor of all things military, CFD gathered up a bunch of military vehicles and put on a convoy. My War Wagon led the convoy around the track. For HMV’s...

After much cursing and help from hendersonj and my Crew Chief wife, she’s running again. Not a job for the faint hearted.

First off, many thanks to HendersonJ! He really went the extra miles for me! On board was a Vietnam Veteran who was also a trucker in civilian life. He figured out what was wrong in under 2.5 seconds. Anyway, halfway through the parade route the War Wagon died. Got it started and then it died...

I’ve picked up a few lead bars. All appears to have been melted at one end. They are lead or some combination of lead and other metals. My question concerns the practice of lead sealing of body joints at the factory. Specific to the G506 but should apply to many WW II and earlier vehicles. Is...

I go to a lot of yard/garage/estate sales. My first go to any sale it where the tools are. As such, I’ve become a bit of a tool nerd 🤓. Vise grips are on my list of must haves. By saying vise grips, I’m using the generic name based on the trade marked products. Anyway, all Chinese tools aren’t...

Nice setup on your rig!

I’d love to find an airsoft M-60. I have a resin M-60 as a ditch gun on War Wagon. Do you have a source for them?

When I get a concussion (I’ve had several) I can feel it in my sinuses. It’s kinda weird but it’s been consistent every time.
