    What's up with GL advertisements

    That's CHEAP for that trailer. There is one for sale near me - same year, model etc for 135K. Whoever gets it will probably double their investment easily.

    Bought an M925 in HI... should be fun

    I shipped my 72 Blazer to Barking Sands Hawaii and back for FREE. Thank you taxpayers. It was nice to take the top off of it and drive on the beach. They only ship one car for free so I had to buy another over there - it had 19 different owners up until it got to me. I sold it to number 20 and...

    So Cal CAMP DIRTBAG Spring run

    Did some Dirtbag preps today - me and the boy ground all the rust out of the bed of the M105 trailer, coated it with rust convertor and then sprayed it with some leftover flat tan latex. He took a special interest since that's where he'll be sleeping. Next we need to prep the outside, but...

    Brake lines cost?

    It's called "Kunifer" or "90-10 Copper-Nickel". It's used in lots of new cars of European manufacture. The the yield strength is good but lower and the expansion rate under pressure is good but higher than Bundy tubing. I doubt that THIS is what anyone posting so far is talking about. It's...

    Brake lines cost?

    Brake line pressures can and do exceed 1000 psi. On no account should copper, aluminum, or commercial fuel line be used, despite the fact that they are easily available and appear to be easy to work with. Pure copper tubing work-hardens and becomes very, very brittle- especially at flare...

    Impact on availability of HMMVV's?

    The OP was asking that since the RUMOR is GM (owner of the HUMMER line of SUVs) lobbied for the miltary HMMWV (made by AM General) not to be surplused because it hurt their sales, that maybe the since HUMMER (owned by GM) was being shuttered that the HMMWV (made by AM General) could be surplused...

    account suspended?

    Keys on the key board can get fat fingered - that's not "irresponsible". Maybe GL posted the wrong pics - wait, they have NEVER messed up pics. There are several good reasons why the OP might need his bid retracted - nothing in life is one size fits all. No sense trying to ASSuME the worst...

    Westfolk's Steel Oil Spin On Adapters

    I got the spin on kit fron Westfolk in the mail today and the 1st thing you notice is the box is pretty heavy. I skimmed through his installation video again and wrote down the socket sizes and torque spec he called for. Grabbed the boy, donned coveralls and took everything to the truck. I've...

    Question about boneyards overseas?

    Glad you got it all figured out. Guess me and my shipmates can stand down since there seems to be no real threat. :cookoo:

    Door weather stripping

    I'm installing rust free doors on the deuce this weekend. The passenger door has no weather stripping and the drivers door only has 2/3s of it there. Since this was an unexpected project (long painful story) I didn't have all needed parts on hand. While at Ace hardware my wife found something we...

    New Hard Tops in Crates!

    So after dealing with shipping and such, what would one have to sell for to turn a profit? 1000? 1200? 1500? That new hard top sell must be nice, but man...............................

    Installed remote brake reservoir today

    Mine was tapped and a vent installed. I just removed the vent a put in an elbow. Since this is my only truck, I just ASSuMEd they were all like that. Ferro cut the hose nipple off of his plastic reservior and installed a fitting for copper line. I didn't go that way, I just used rubber...

    Installed remote brake reservoir today

    Did my install today. A little different than some of the others - a hybrid of sorts. I checked out the part numbers listed in various threads and got all of that and more for 34 dollars shipped off of Amazon. Must be a mom and pop operation because I bought the last kit they had (in that size)...
