If you have in and out as well as fore and aft movement, the box needs rebuilding. The adjustment screw changes the depth of engagement between the worm and follower. To adjust the depth, jack up the front end to get the wheels off the ground and tighten the screw down until you have no lost...

Kubota or Komatsu has a big factory here in Ga. that builds the wheel tractors.

I have a couple of good ones FT. Already off the truck.

I still have some wrenches on hand from the second batch. PM me if you need one. $25 delivered to your door. Just be a little patient, I have a lot of family health issues with my parents, in-laws, and wife that are keeping me behind on getting things mailed out in a timely fashion..

De nada amigo. I helped him get a NOS distributor for his truck, they seem to be scarce in the Canary Islands. The postage to Spain was more than I paid for a brand new dist. assy. though!

Matt Don't worry, I'll make a trip up to Bjorns later on this Summer. If you were bobtailing it would be one thing, but pulling a wiggle waggle would be no fun at all.

He's doing a great job isn't he! That is going to be one sweet M34 when he is done.

Let us know when you will be in the Atlanta area, the locals might gang up and meet you for dinner!

Too bad you are already towing a trailer, I'd get you to pick up an M103 from Bjorns place in Va. for me!

Some of the old carburated engines would leak gas into the manifold after the engine was shut down. Rhis could be caused by several things, carb float too high, leaking needle and seat, bad carb gaskets, etc.

M170 should take standard 5 lug older Jeep wheels.

Look for the pump on either an electric forklift or pallet jack. They are usually 4 -5 gpm or so, already have a check valve installed, and tend to be durable as all get out. You will need to run as heavy a wire and solenoid as the truck charger uses, or you will quickly fry wires.

RE: easy to check brake fluid I always worry when a post starts off "I've been thinking"......... dangerous thing, thinking..... In this case, it is a really good idea!

Gerber machines had a "Stencil" font that was almost identical to the old military stencil cutter stuff. It would even space them like a stencil cutter did. Most any sign software has that font built in.

Krylon is a spray paint that sticks to just about anything. You find it at most hardware stores. It will work on tee-shirts, tire covers, and quite a few different plastics. Pretty cheap, comes in many colors, including flat brown, black, and green. It has an agressive solvent package that...

Hit the scrap yards and find an old 24 volt electric pallet jack. Nice little pump, already has the lines, and a check valve. I found one for $25 the other day. It would also make a nice hydraulic pump for a dump conversion.

Hmm... I guess I need to look into that.

Pipe insulation from Home Depot.

RE: paint I have seen yinyl painted with Krylon, mainly tire covers. It seems to work really well. Alkyd enamels will normally turn loose. I would try Krylon on a section on the very top and see how it does.

RE: Re: RE: Painting a cab cover? Vinyl can be painted with the proper paints. The main problem is "plasticizer migration". The chemicals that keep the vinyl flexible tend to come to the top slowly and make the paint turn loose.
