You can pull the dust covers off and check to see which brake shoe(s) are not releasing. I would check the wheel that was too hot to touch. You will probably end up pulling that one apart. The are a couple of wedge brake videos on YouTube. Also Google meritor brakes or axles. You should be able...

Is it maintained and roadworthy? If it's not and something grenades, you're looking at a potential tow/repair bill that will make the shipping cost look like a blue light special! Think about it carefully.

So a m923 with ABS shouldn't have that issue? ABS is there to prevent the rear wheels from locking in a panic stop and stalling the engine. So yes, in theory, ABS should solve that problem.

I too have seen someone with steel toe shoes get his toes almost amputated from stupidity. BTW, steel toe shoes are hard to get off when they are flattened. Protective gear is great, but it won't necessarily save you. You have to be smart when you use it.

Take a IR thermometer with you. Stop a couple of miles down the road and check everything; transmission, transfer case, hubs, brake drums and axle center sections. Then stop 15 or 20 miles later and do it again. If nothing is getting hot, you can just check things every time you stop from there...

Hydraulic system to run a trailer or aux. hydraulics.

I think papabear put a wet kit on his M818. I don't remember if there is a thread about it but you can look.

Is this like a ink blot test? I see a Chevy pickup rusting in a junk yard.

I think you need a fuel decal if you live in the state.

Unless you have a good reason to add spring brakes or in your case, to replace the hand brake handle with a spring can, I would think twice about it. It's nice to be able to move the truck after you start it without having to wait for the air to build enough to release spring brakes.

They can transfer a permanent antique tag at the local office and it cost $12.35 for my M929 and I think the same for my M915A1 (don't have the registration here). It sounds like the they charged you the full amount for the permanent antique tag probably because the tag on your 1969 car was not...

I picked up a M915A1 at Ft. Polk last year. If you don't have a military ID, you have to enter Ft. Polk through the Main gate on US 171 about 2 miles north of LA 10. Can probably go through any gate with your army ID. The guard will direct you if there's a specific gate you need to go through...

My wife says there won't be a second childhood for me because I'll never get out of my first one!

You might get more help if this was in the Deuce forum.

Sometimes the paint manufacturer changes the formulation. When you go buy paint, give them the FS number and you are good to go. Assuming your Home Depot paint person can find it in the computer. Some of them are better than others, YMMV. Good luck.

Post a picture of the starter. Is there a manufacturer's name on it?

The first thing that came to my mind is Gimpy isn't married!

RAYZER will be there. He has been to Sonny's more times than everybody else on this site put together!

Looks good, what color did you use Ray? Is that the same as the TAJ?

You really should get the air system diagram from the TM and diagnose your problem. Using the wrong terminology to try and describe your problems won't help anyone figure it out for you. If someone does come up with the solution, you may not understand what they are telling you.
