I'm heading up there Thursday morning with the bobbed deuce, m422a1 mighty mite and t24 weasel. Stopping by at Manawa to get lunch then head through Symco to see who's there. We will be at both Iola for the Military show and over at Symco for the traditional hot rod show. See ya at Iola, Paul

Mine did that right from when I got it from Fort McCoy. Put head gaskets in , blew one of those . Put new style head gaskets in - still leaked ( I checked the heads and block for flat and couldn't get .0015 between the straightedge and the surfaces both times). Pulled it apart again, checked for...

I once had a high pitched "ringing" Clark transmission in a single axle 5 yard dump truck. As it turns out I pulled it and found , if I remember right , a cracked gear on the countershaft. It cracked radially about half way around the gear and up to the teeth. The engine in front of it was a 8.3...

Very cool and a good find. You might want to try out the m29weasel.com forum board. That's where a bunch of us weasel guys hang out. Some thing to think about is the weasel fest next year in Elkhorn, Iowa at Liberty Auto Restorations. Paul in Janesville,wis

I think I'll have to plan on this for next year and bring a Jeep or two. Looks like fun[thumbzup] This weekend is already booked with WW2 days reenactments down in Rockford, Ill. Paul in Janesville, Wis

I wish that I could make it, but we have the WW2 days at the Midway Village in Rockford, Illinois that same weekend. I went to Ropkey's for ,I think, the first get together and I had a good time. I may stop by there next week coming back home from Ohio. Paul in Janesville, Wis

Another thing to consider is the age of the tires in Question. I have seen Tires come apart in all sorts of ways. Sometimes you have a sidewall that may support some weight other times you don't and my tire pile here at my shop is full of both. All I can say, is that if you are cruising down the...

I will be there :-D:driver:. Hopefully with a couple HMV's . Ok,to re-edit my edit, that's the same weekend as the Great Lakes Logging Congress just up the street at the EAA grounds . That means Green trucks and logging equipment on the same weekend Paul in Janesville, Wis

Kenny, You know that I wanted your first recovery to be something that you would remember :D It was kinda funny when the lawnmower lady spoke to us and you thought we were going to the brig for sure:-P I really shouldn't ask for donuts since they are not good for my health . We'll see ya up at...

Kenny, are you bringing donuts? I'm kinda partial to strawberry covered with sprinkles :-D:-D Paul in Janesville in my own mind

Karebear, I hope you will be going someones got to drive the ol' blue Dodge with the camper with the trailer for stuff that I buy in case I get the bobbed deuce done. Someone also has to cook, a guy can only eat so many burnt hamburgers and hot dogs:-D:-D:-D:-D:-D:-D:wink::roll: Truckhead as...
