What time do you think you'll be meeting up in Epping? I could also meet Katahdin in scarbourough depending on time.

I'll be bringing the Deuce from midcoast maine sometime friday morning. If anyone else is up that way let me know.

EE here... short answer: yes, should be fine longer answer: LEDs tend to like being put in series, they are often built this way inside single devices. so putting two of those in series to get to 24v should be no problem. They have internal limiting resistors to make them play nicely anyway. As...

To revive an old thread (seems better than making a new one)... I'm looking at impact wrenches, and of course came across the roboimpact. Hearing all the mixed reviews, I dug a little into the models. There are two obvious versions, the D handle, and the pistol grip, but it appears there are two...

Is that accurate enough? If you are measuring exhaust gas temps, is there sufficient correlation between the gas temp and the bearing/oil temp that just looking at EGTs is safe? Possible/feasible to get a sensor on the bearings or perhaps the return oil line to see more exactly what the...

My first MV: 1972 AM General M35A2 (or it might be 1971 as the s/n suggests, or 1969 as on the title) From NY national guard to its first owner, to a SS member, and now on to me. Last stationed at the 133rd Maintenance Company out of Peekskill NY. C turbo, troop seats, soft top, winch (yes I...

Consider that if you want to bypass your kill switch, it is easy on the negative side, just a wrench to the frame would do it. If you install on the positive side it makes it that much harder to go for joyrides. +1 on the meltdown. Best case it stops working, worst case is you have a nice...

J.R. Martin was good to me. Best price, had a partial load going my route about a week later, and good communication. From his site looks like he moves quite a few MVs. Might be on the wrong coast for you though. http://jrmartintransport.com/

Sure, why not. My first MV: 1972 M35A2.

right, 9 not 8. did you try anyway ;)

Not too familiar with the M9 series, but do you have the clutch depressed when you move the PTO lever?

Well I'm certainly intrigued. I'm taking my truck for its first long drive this weekend, so I'd like to make sure that all goes well. Assuming it does I'll investigate this m764 more. Will update if there is any new news.

Only a month ago a bought my first deuce, and now of course I'm looking at more. I know of this M764 which I could probably get for cheap, the question is, is it worth it. Either for fixing up or reselling. (I'm not to attached to the earthboring part of it). I know nothing about this truck...

any chance you'll have room for 10 g177s? No rims, stacked on two pallets in Memphis.

I have no plans, but would be interesting if anything comes along.
