    12 volt towing box

    You can't download the program, but you can download your diagram. I'm using it as the free version, I don't do a lot of schematics, so I don't wanna' pay if I don't have to. Maybe the paid version allows you to download the software, but I doubt it. It's probably just more capability in the...

    12 volt towing box

    Per this thread: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?156684-Best-free-software-for-drawing-wiring-schematics&highlight= I was referred to Digikey. Of all the sites recommended, I found it the easiest to grasp. It took me a few hours, but once I had an idea of how it worked, my...

    Gauge Problem

    So, the way all those gauges work is.............. 24V to the "IGN" side of the gauge. The gauge body has to the grounded to the chassis. This is done via the mounting bracket that touches the panel, which grounds to the chassis via the 4 twist locks. The "SEND" side is wired to the sending...

    M38 front steering linkage Moog numbers?

    I have a client with an M38 and I need to rebuild all the steering linkage. I hate using the cheap Chinese reproduction stuff and I've had good luck with Moog stuff with my musclecar clients, does anyone have the Moog #s for the steering linkage? Everything, so inner and outer tie rod ends...

    New 71 deuce, many questions

    MN is correct. Sounds like that's a truck that someone just rode hard and put away wet and when it finally got to the point that they couldn't do that anymore, they sold it. If I bought that truck, I would start with: Totally flush the fuel system. If you have money, let a radiator shop vat...

    Official 2016 Georgia Rally Multimedia GMVR16 Thread

    I realize this is the 2016 thread and it's currently 2018............................ but our videographer just sent me the 2016 and 2017 videos. Sorry this took so long. Our buddy does this for us for free and although it takes forever, I kind of have an issue with hassling someone to do a...

    M-series flasher relay - civvy conversion how-to

    I don't think so. I think when i converted to this box from the plastic that I tried to move the extra flasher into it and it wouldn't fit. The Stig (who I got the part # for this box from) used this one because the bolt holes allowed it to bolt to the vehicle using the factory holes.

    M35a2 ARB Air Locker Questions

    I am really impressed with all of this. The switch bracket and I love the dataplates. Very well done. I guess since your axle is out and you have radials that you're going to modify the caster plates while you're doing all this?

    M-series flasher relay - civvy conversion how-to

    I suspect you mean an EG22 but yes. You can simply cut off your cannon connector, ignore the ground wire and crimp spade connectors onto the existing wires, if that's how you want to roll.

    UH-1H Huey vehicle dismantlement and extraction

    So, I'm kind of confused. He drove to an area that was waaaay off limits, but in the picture of the truck from the drivers side, the front tire is deflated and the bead is broken and the rear tire looks non existent. Did he drive up there and screw up the tires, then come looking for help...

    Harbor Freight Purple HVLP mod

    I have a $400 Sata gun I never use anymore because of these. I've shot CARC, Gillespie, TM9 urethane paint, automotive primer, base, clear and pearl through these and had very few problems. I've had a few come apart and a few where I stripped something on them but they are, for the most part...

    looking at a deuce to buy

    I hate to make a judgement just on a craigslist ad, but that looks okay to me. M44A3 rims (so they aren't homemade), not a homemade winch, C&C snorkel (I think, regardless, it's not made out of surplus plumbing parts), doesn't look like a rust bucket, factory correct winch (not some cobbled...

    looking at a deuce to buy

    A. Disregard the mileage. 55,000 indicated means nothing. When the speedometer dies in service, Pvt. Snuffy goes down to the motorpool and pulls one off the shelf and installs it. Or cannibalizes a dead truck out in the field. Unless the current owner bought it form the service and it had...

    Louisiana - State Flagging Existing Titles, and Registering New Vehicles as Off-Road

    It is pretty well documented that AM General views their vehicles as something they sell to the government and they wish them not to be in private hands. Try calling them about anything, regardless of how trivial it is and telling them you're a civilian owner of anything they've built at any...

    DIfferential bevel gear removal

    You have to use spacers and your 20 ton probably won't do it. My 30 ton wouldn't do it and I had a 4' long bar on the hydraulic ram. My machine shop has something absurd like a 50 or 100 ton press and I had to farm it out to them. They said they had 2 guys pulling on a long bar and when it...
