    New Castle, Delaware site

    I was there a couple of weeks ago. Picked up my M109A4. The neighborhood isn't that bad. It's the first exit once you cross over the Delaware Memorial Bridge from NJ. Go up three or four blocks make a right go less than a half mile make another right and you're there. It's an auction house...

    Today's M109A3 recovery

    Can you share the water setup for the sink and shower and holding tanks. I see the spare has been relocated and there is a tank located in its place. Also what is the box in the back left corner for? I picked up an M109A4 last week from Delaware and looking to do a conversion. Nice setup.

    Leece-Neville 100 Amp Generator rebuild

    I had a fellow who works on trucks check my belts and he said they had the right tension. I put new belts on in the spring when I pulled my radiator. Interestingly, I slaved a generator last week and each time I hit the starter switch on the MEP16A a high pitched squeel came out of the engine...

    Leece-Neville 100 Amp Generator rebuild

    My gauge in my 1980 M35a2C kept going from center of the green when idling down to yellow as soon as I started driving and continued toward boarder line yellow/Red. When I shut down the engine and restart it after a while I'm back in the green until I start driving again. It was suggested that...

    Door window weatherstrip question

    My 813A1 window was cracked so bought a replacement window and decided to change the window weatherstrip at the sametime. I followed the TM - popped the 5 clips into the holes in the door with the weather seal (which is shaped kind of like a capital L). I assumed the "L" shaped item goes...

    I'm looking for a source for delineation plates preferrbly the smaller size. I used search and sent an email over a week ago to Tim Clark and haven't received a response. Not sure if he is still around at the email in this post. I also tried ebay and google with no luck. Would anyone have...

    Holes on driver side fender of 813A1 - what bracket

    I posted two more pictures of the bracket I bought up against the holes. Looks like the bracket ridgerunner has but it's still smaller than the footprint of what was there.

    Holes on driver side fender of 813A1 - what bracket

    I've got these six holes that measure 4.5 inches wide and 9.5 inches on center top to bottom. I bought a surplus fire extinguisher bracket that I thought looked big at purchase but when I put it up to the fender the holes weren't even close. Can anyone tell me what might have gone on this...

    pressurewasher sandblaster attachment

    I went to Lowes and picked up some play sand last week just to try it out on a small section of my 5 Ton which has many layers of paint. I set it up per instructions and it worked incredibly well on spots where the paint had already peeled off several top coats. I did about 5 square inches in...

    Air Compressors - Gas vs. Electric

    Thanks for the replies. I think I would lean toward a model like the Eaton 7.5hp 80gallon single phase. Lots of CFM in case needed down the road. What about used vs. new. I've looked on a couple of websites and some machines look beat to heck. As with anything, new buys you peace of mind...

    Air Compressors - Gas vs. Electric

    I've been standing on the sidelines looking at air tools for a long time and am thinking of jumping in and buying a 23-25cfm air compressor for tools and occasional sandblasting or soda setup plus cabinet. This would be my first venture into air tools and I would like opinions. With Gas I...
