    1st euc, I have 2 questions

    I have the euc all filled out and ready to fax. I think I remember somewhere on SS that the copy of my drivers license needs to be a color copy. I didn't see anywhere on the GL site that I couldn't fax a black and white copy. Do I need to wait till after I submit my euc to request a sf97...

    generator to run house and well

    swbradley, I agree that an LP generator would be the cleanest and easiest. I am just a little shocked how expensive a new LP generator in the 20 Kw range is. I was hopeing that I could do it cheaper with out it becomeing a real pain. Thanks for your help. Jim Conley

    generator to run house and well

    Ferro, thanks for the reply. I wasnt aware that I would be able to use a three phase generator on the house. How big of a generator are you thinking of using? Are you going to leave it portable, or are you going to hard wire it to the panel? Jim Conley

    single rear axle 5 ton

    That is exactly what I was looking for, well I would like more women and less men in the bed. But, I would think a full 14 foot bed with a single rear axle would be more truck than I would ever need, and it would have a better turning radius and higher top speed with better acceleration. Thank...

    single rear axle 5 ton

    Has anyone converted their 5 ton to a single rear axle with out shortening the overall length of the truck. If so, how hard or expensive is it to lengthen a drive shaft. I would assume all the other work would be identical to a bobbed 5 ton. Thanks Jim Conley

    radiator not hot to touch

    998, yes I would state that the thermostat was bad. It is just that I would assume I would see some sort of movement of coolant with the themostat out and the radiator cap off. Also, should I trust my temp gauge? When it says it is getting hot I haven't had any coolant excape from the...

    radiator not hot to touch

    I put in new head gaskets on the multifuel in my m62a2, and when I drive it the temp gauge will go to the upper portion of hot. I pulled the thermostat hopeing that was the problem. With the thermostat the radiator wasn't hot at all, without the thermostat the radiator is warm to the touch...

    Personal Rant....... 5 ton wanted......

    I have no problem with the business side of MV's. Although, I would be interested in knowing how one buyer can move so many 5 ton trucks. I know one buyer picked up 11 5 ton cargo trucks in one auction. Where are the buyers for that many trucks? I don't see that many trucks on e-bay...

    5 ton front axle gearing

    I was reading another thread and it was stated that the 5 ton trucks have an "overgeared" front end. Is the gearing on a 5 ton different from the front to the back, or is it the same? I always assumed it was the same. Thanks, I was just interested. Jim

    5 ton tractor differences

    Sorry about my dumb question, I guess I would like to rephrase the question. Is the 818, the only tractor that comes with the cummins motor. Is the only difference in the 5 ton tractors the engine. Since the m123 tractor is mentioned, I understand it is over legal width. If that...

    M819 towing M35A2 (pics)

    I am sorry to ask again, but will the front tires engage if the transfer case is in neutral and the front is lift towed. I am asking because the commercial tow operators lift from the tires, and i was wondering if they could tow a five tone with a tire lift. jim conley m62a2
