    Fuel Strainer Cartridge MEP002

    Which spin on mod, the oil or the fuel? the fuel is super easy, just order two 24770 bases from a Wix dealer, the cheapest I've found is fleetfilter.com the old lines will screw right in without an issue, same with the primary on the m35a2. Just mark the holes and drill and bolt them on. No...

    Pintle Riser Plate Safety

    Here is the one I built to get the needed 36" of height, but I will stress that I only use it to haul empty m105's. I have hauled empty m101a2's with it as well, but I have no worries with them. 13 Mike observed the hitch in use after we hooked up a m105 and noticed some flex upon braking...

    Fuel Strainer Cartridge MEP002

    There are 2 fuel pumps? They would be on the opposite side of the engine as the fuel tank right? Also, I plan on taking off the 3 fuel filters (strainer and the other 2) and replacing them with Wix base 24770 and 1 12 micron water separator and 1 2 micron fuel filter. I have also done some...

    Fuel Strainer Cartridge MEP002

    It is probably fine, just the fuel system is full of the nasty algea and I was just going to replace it. So, the fuel strainer goes first and then the 2 fuel filters next? If I was to convert to spin on fuel filters with the 2 different WIX bases would I still even need the strainer cartridge?

    Fuel Strainer Cartridge MEP002

    I just picked up my generator today. I have been reading a lot. It looks like 3 fuel filters along the side of the unit, but it is my understanding only 2 of them are fuel filters and 1 is a "fuel strainer"...I see that is a FRAM 35070 from searching. First, does anyone know where to get...

    Military vehicle show Oct 15 11AM-1PM

    GTO, just asked my wife...she claims she didn't take any pictures! Ouch! Our Baptist's chaplains endorser was there and he had a camera. I will have him email me pictures because I saw him taking some for sure. I had completely stopped raining shortly after 9 AM, but the rain must have...

    wedding at the 2012 haspin rally?

    The best policy is just to be straightforward. Tell your mom that this is what you want and, "If you really trully love me you will help me make it happen." I doubt anyone would have a problem with it, tell them it is an outdoor wedding and give them the location in invitations. Some...

    Military vehicle show Oct 15 11AM-1PM

    Just a bump to this thread since this event is coming up this Saturday. Sorry, no pictures from the HS football game yet; but they had a m1070 HET there! And a Blackhawk landed, it would be really cool to get them to do that at our church event, but we'd probably have to have 1,000's in...

    Will a DT466 fit in a M35a2

    Our church bus has a DT466 and so do the smaller International chassis like small wreckers and stuff, they all seem about the same size as a deuce's engine bay. I have no experience doing a swap like this, but I am almost certain they are very close in size. Deuce engine 465 cu in and the Dt...

    Selfridge Deuces

    I would do the recovery for you, but my wife is very burnt out on me doing recoveries. I've only gone on 4 this year...but anyway (10 over the last 2.5 years). Wish I would have known about it yesterday when I was down there because I could have dragged the truck off base for you since the...

    Soldier B is Doug...it was his truck that I "purchased" for him and helped him recover. Goldwing, glad to hear that you figured out the problem and were able to get it started. Your driver seemed like a super nice guy, in my opinion I'd recommend him to people. 5643 started after about 10...

    Rear bumper pictures

    My in-laws surprised me by hauling the bumper all the way from Tuscon in their HHR! It barely fit and I didn't even want to ask them...it was my 30th birthday so I guess that was a good present.
