    Installing a mechanical oil pressure gauge

    I had the same experience a few months ago. Changed the sending unit out to match the guage and made no difference. Cleaned the regulator - no difference. I suspected a coolent leak into the oil. Had oil samples from my three m35's and a cat skid steer sent to Blackstone Labs for an analysis...

    F-35 Vertical Landing

    Unmanned seems to be the wave of the future. Great great grandkids will look at these old military trucks and think "wow I can't believe someone actually sat in that thing and drove it.

    Different Deuce engines?

    Welcome to the site.:D Lots of factors to consider in determining a fair price for the truck. Most private party winch trucks to go for 3500 to 4500 from what I've seen. That is unless it is in exceptionally good shape. One of my trucks has a 1c designation when it is actually a D turbo. Post...

    Recovery question...towing F150

    When will you have another chance for such an adventure? I vote you drive it home. You will learn quite a bit about your new truck and have an opportunity to bond. Whats the fun in paying someone to tow it if its a solid truck? As long as your moving and the front window is open, I find mine...

    What a nice truck!

    Tips please

    Take it easy and stop frequently to do some checks. I've found the truck will usually let you know well ahead if a problem is coming up. Good luck.

    Are all Deuces Multifuel?

    A guy that used to work for me told me he did that with a diesel delivery truck for the place he previously worked. Topic came up when he attempted to put diesel in my gas dump truck.:shock: He didn't notice anything wrong until the truck quit running. Wonder why they wouldn't re-hire him - he...

    600 gallon aluminum tank on an M105?

    I think it might be a little heavy when its filled up.

    Recovery? Lost...... or Stolen from Ft. Indiantown Gap PA.

    Seems like they could check your truck on entry and on exit - just like the local Menards store. If its not on your invoice or brought in, it shouldn't be leaving in your truck. I had a couple of front shackles missing.

    License Requirements for 5-ton Dump

    In my opinion, your best to keep it in the weight range you will need. It does get expensive pretty quick when you go up in weight. A CDL is not that hard or expensive to get - just study the manual and take a few tests. The driving test isn't too bad if you pay extra for a pre-run and practice...

    GL M151s pulled

    I figured they would let you win them - then have them cut in half on pickup.:(

    Redid the seats in and out.

    This is my next project. That vinyl looks pretty good - I was leaning toward canvas though. More choices to make.:grin:

    Your not to far from me. I got three m35a2 trucks. Go to John Parker Ins.(State Farm) in New Haven and get a quote. Mine is about 300/year for commercial.
