After 500 miles it started making a horrible sound which turned out to be the cracked flex plate. I replaced it with a...

    6.2 making a terrible scrapping noise

    The noise sounds like a flex plate to me also. Mine made the same sound when it cracked. It looked ok with the dust cover off but after removing the flex plate you could see the cracks around the mounting bolts. I'm not sure about the coolant light but I'm sure someone on here will help you...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Not exactly, I repaired the Sprague last month. It was about a 16 hour job with the tools I had to work with. I did paint the 5 ton and my deuce last week though. I had to get them ready for a show this weekend. Hope I'm through painting for awhile! I used six gallons of paint.

Station 1 transmits on station 2's receiver frequency and station 2 transmits on station 1's receiver...

    M35A2 Radio

    As far as Green Radios the AN/GRC-160 is the set up I use along with the VIC-1 in my deuce and 5 ton. It's nice to have the option of using the PRC 77 as a man pack if needed. A 2 meter radio would be easy to add in addition. Coop W9FLH AN/PRC-25 and AN/PRC-77 in Other Configurations There...
