    MY Airpack Rebuild with Photos!

    That looks like some GAA (Grease: Automotive, Artillery), genuine GI issue. The gold color snaughty stuff anyway. The black stuff looks similar to used, dirty grease and the wet stuff may be water mixed with dirty grease that could have gotten hot. Hard to tell. Real life is not the same as a...

    5th gear? In a deuce?

    Great post! If I was doing that project, it would probably end up looking something like an episode of "Married with children" with the characters 'Al Bundy' and 'Jefferson' trying to resurrect the old dodge. Curious, would it have been possible to use a floor jack instead of a cherry...

    RBU behind deuce?

    A farm tractor has a 3 point hitch that you would connect, say a bush hog. The bush hog gets it power mower from a drive shaft with 2 universal joints at either end. One is attached to the bush hog, so it can be raised, lowered and knocked around a bit. The other u-joint allows the tractor to...

    On abandoning your vehicle:

    And just think. . . dealers are selling new cars without spare tires, period. Instead, the car has a can of "fix a flat", so the driver can limp to some place for repairs. That is done so that the manufacturer can have a higher mpg rate on their window sticker. Some vehicles now, spare...

    The shortest Road trip, M820A2, Stuck in Hole

    Picture number 2 showed a heck of a twist. Frame OK? At least you had to be towed out by a big rig and not some pukey Suzuki Samurai. That would have been embarrassing. I mean. If your gonna get stuck, get stuck good.fat lady sings

    MY Airpack Rebuild with Photos!

    What was the original problem that led to the diagnosis that the airpacks needed to rebuild? I love this whole thing about people, some without any training whatsoever, are dedicated and inquisitive enough to solve some very complicated issues, and on many occasions, very serious stuff...

    Why are green or camo cargo covers so hard to find?

    Years ago (OK, mid-80's) our units had canvas covers on the trucks but trailers had vinyl covers only. By far, our vinal covers weren't worth a sguat! Always, always becoming tattered, particulary when cold. Seem they stiffened when cold, broke really easy when we tried to open cold tarps or...

    What does the abbr "FDC" mean? "IP" means injector pump, unless I am mistaken. Are the m925, m923 series of trucks multifueled vehicles like the older 2.5 ton trucks were designed? Thanks
