I'ma gonna STEAL this idea... Seriously, though, thanks. I already can lock the X-case in "neutral" basically the same way. Tab welded to tunnel, padlock through hole drilled in the "knot" on the lever.

Yeah, he is getting *pretty* good at repacking hubs, even figured out how to hold the hub assembly up so that he could fully grease everything in there. I found this interesting tool at work...

Man. Your lunchbox locker *REALLY* went out to lunch! Hopefully, you still have the old spider gears stashed somewhere...

He is currently down for the night, so, I will say this for him- Thank you, to all of you. He is pretty happy with having his very own MV, and, hopefully, he will feel that way for many years. I ordered some more parts for tonight, so, in a few days, he will have another box of stuff to go...

Well, I gave the Deuce to my youngest Son for Graduation from High School and we spent a few hours going over it and trying to be conservative about what problems to pick a fight with. He figured out how to "fix" the seat belt rewinders while I was inside at work. Smart kid.

Yeah, the "sponges" are almost an automatic requirement for the majority of batteries made, these days.

I started the "Honey Badger" up for the first time in about 4 months. It had what sounded like three dead cylinders at first, and then it picked them up after about 2-3 minutes, and ran fine for the rest of the time.

I got an old and rusty drivers side door latch to work again, installed in the truck, and amazingly, NO slamming the door to get it to close AND lock- latches as easy as my wifes' Hondas' doors do! Like, 1 finger to OPEN and CLOSE it easy. I also (finally) got the nos M/C and rebuilt airpack...

A good showing for the support of family and service members is always a good duty to have.

Sounds like you fit in around here pretty well, davidb56.

My H/F sometimes has sets available separately, sometimes, they are "left overs" from "broken" kits. YMMV.

Handy tool set, that. I have been using the harbor Freight one for several years now. I love the "trade in" for broken driver tips.

*Somebody* is very creative with WAY too much time available. Nice work, though.

Registration states "declared" GVW, and for personal use it is a NON DOT issue, as LONG AS YOU stay BELOW THE BREAK. Hit the "magic" weight, and feel the love of the DOT- DOT number, KYU, IFTA, logs, timeclock. No thanks. Played that game for over 19 years.

Going to DIS-agree with you on this one. Kentucky WILL let you register, as a FARM tag plated vehicle, a 5 ton like an M 813 UNDER the max tag weight of 38K. Stay under 26,001 and you are NOT subject to DOT regs. This per the County Clerk, who speaks as a state employee, needing to be fully...

Yeah, tank diving- bringing a completely different meaning to the old expression of "we dive at five"... I don't miss that about the Stallion or some of the other junks that I worked on.

Hmm.... what's this thing? *that's* interesting.... :jumpin: Now, if I can *only* find an airpac....... The "Deadline Special" can finally go home. :roll:

Well, I got the chance to tear into the brake system on my Deuce. The M/C seems to be okay, other than having DOT 3 in it, but, the air-pac is in worse condition than the one that I dragged home. Neither of them is worth trying to clean up and hone, for a rebuild. &*&^@$%$$**!!!!! I just...

Yea!!! My computer has decided to let me post pictures again. Here are the 2 pictures from my trip back on Thursday to go see Clinto and folks. Sorry, no pictures of the trucks and other things sitting around the yard. This coming week begins the "fun" of doing the axle freshenings. NOT yea...

Made a trip up to go see Clinto and crew at the new location and get some badly needed parts for my Deuce yesterday. Nice people, nice place. And, my computer will NOT upload pictures to here anymore. Why, all of a sudden?
