    My 1972 M35A2

    Three years is a lot, but look at what you ended up with! Really nice job - that's exactly what I want mine to look like.

    About to pick up my MEP 003A

    I looked at that generator a while back, and would have bought it for parts only. You did a great job bringing it back to life

    MEP-002a fuel check valve

    I haven't checked with him, but Storeman is parting out some MEP's and might be able to help. I have plenty of check valves, but none are size five.

    MEP002A Fuel hoses (new user, 1st post)

    The hose size is 5/16", but not the thread size. The standard fittings on the end of a -5 hose are 5/8". There is a check valve between the final filter and the IP, not just a connector - I wouldn't run without that. They are 37 degree fittings.

    NF-2 Floodlight Set

    Thanks for the reply! I had gotten some of those, but there were some I've never seen. I checked all of them with no luck on a manual or instructions. I did find the applicable tech order T.O. 35F5-5-11-31 number from one of your sources, but this T.O. doesn't seem to exist anywhere. I'm going...

    What Plates on a Deuce in GA

    GA Tags I went to the Crawford county tag office in 2010 to get an antique tag for my deuce - they said those recently went up to $80, but a 26,000 lb tag was $38. GADOT could argue an 18,000 lb plate, since they go by the manufacturer's gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR), which is around...

    Can a Deuce to tow a Deuce on a trailer without a CDL ? Yes.

    Re: GA CDL Dell - it's not the weight, it's the manufacturer's gross vehicle weight rating, which for an M35A2 is 23,530 and it can tow 10,000 lbs. So the way I read it, even if you tow an empty M105, rated at 10,000 lbs, you'd have a total weight rating of 33,530, which says CDL. TMNT - the...

    Can a Deuce to tow a Deuce on a trailer without a CDL ? Yes.

    Ga cdl I took that from the Georgia Commercial Driver's Manual. It's talking about the tests you have to take for all CDL applicants. On the air brake test, is says "you must take if your vehicle has air brakes, including air over hydraulic brakes." That's where I got it - if you have...

    Can a Deuce to tow a Deuce on a trailer without a CDL ? Yes.

    GA Rules FYI: If you drive a deuce in GA, you need a CDL. GA is different than most states in that if you have air brakes OR air over hydraulic brakes, you at least need a class A CDL.

    What are these???

    That's not what they are After looking more closely, they don't appear to have two pieces, so they're probably not for holding wire. I give up, what are they??

    What are these???

    Here's what they are Those appear to be wire tensioners - if you string an overhead line, the line slides between the two parts, and the more you pull the tighter it gets. The loop goes aroumd whatever holds up the wire.

    M35a2 vs m923

    Deuces in Georgia I just checked GA laws and a CDL is required for any vehicle with air brakes OR air over hydraulic brakes. I've never heard of it being enforced.

    M262 Nike Missile Launch Control Station?

    I've got the same one and towed it from MD to GA - not a pleasant experience. It tried to turn itself and my tractor over on a couple of interstates. Tow it slow, especially on even slight curves, it's top heavy.
