Yeah, that rain inspired me to actually get the canvas preservative/waterproofer out of the bucket and onto the cargo cover of my duece... Amazing how much nicer it is to have a dry place to sleep :) That rain last year on Thursday hit right after I got most everything unloaded, but before I...

We'll miss you... None of the stuff you were hauling for me is critical, and the stuff I have of your's is in comfortable storage. Take care, and let us know if we can help with anything.

You're transmission needs some TLC. You should not be grinding anything. Check the slop in the ball at the top of the tower (where the shift lever is attached) as well as slop in the shift rails first. ABLinn has the complete rebuild kits for the first series transmissions as well as NOS...

We've posted notes on the MVemail list, the G503, G741, and YahooM38 sites. I asked a buddy who is over on the M715Zone to post a note there, sent a note to the MTAofNJ. Feel free to go and add a reply to those threads or start a few more since it will add to the excitement if thier is more...

I've got to place my final order with the shirt folks next week in order to give them time to run them, and then for me to ship them out to folks... I'll be ordering extras, but you never know what I'll have in stock if you delay... Since I'm having to front the money for the shirts, I'd really...

I've got a page on my site that shows the rack on my M37 in case you'd like to compare mounting.. :) I've also got the specifications for the tools (the real reason I'm posting the link...). I've snuck a ziptie onto each tool in addition to the three straps. Easy enough for me to remove when...

Thanks guys! Now: Tell all your friends to get one (or two... )... [thumbzup] Looking forward to seeing everyone soon.

One thing that I have been kicking around since I like the body style on these trucks is to swap in a diesel. I can pick up a complete used schoolbus in my area for around $3000-$4000 with a Cummins ISB5.9 backed by an Allison automatic. I figure that the engine/trans would be a fairly easy...

RE: M37 corner bows & timing ? The M37 bow corners have a "harder" angle then the ones for a M35 or a M715. I have photos of them on my website along with the dimensions for all the wood pieces (upright, cross, ridgepole, seats, etc.). The M37 corners and those used on the M101 trailer are...

RE: What Other than the differences to the engine and transmission, I've never heard of anything being different in the driveline. You should always be able to swap out components like transfer case and axles as complete assemblies... Since the 251 block has the same bolt pattern on the...

Not to worry, I'll have my PRC77 with me... :) Heck, it'll give us an excuse to wander over and see what's happening in a whole different section of the rally... You'll have a blast no matter where you are.

RE: Re: im comen too Guys, Don't forget to head over to the convoy website and register. It'll really help us out as we get closer since Mike has some functions built into the site that help out greatly form a managment standpoint (ability to send out group notices for instance), and we need...

David, I have four spaces (the ones that are listed for myself and the ones that used to be Joe's that Tony Casey is using) with space to spare. Mike Maynard is putting the Steelsoldiers command tent next door since we are cooking the BBQ at my spot. If you don't mind smelling the hog...

Actually, I have purchased Blythwoodjoe's Yellow vendor spots (Yellow - T10 U6) and will have Tony Casey located next to me in that location. Joe can't make it, and I wanted a fellow North Carolinian next door...

I will be in Yellow Vendor spaces U5 T9 with the hog cooker fired up on Friday. Most of the steelsoldiers fellows are near me... And, if not, I'll have a copy of the Vendor directory with me and an idea of who is where... Get a convoy t-shirt and join us for BBQ on Friday night. Rally...

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Who is going on the 2007 East Coast Conv Pics are in the section called "photo gallery" Not sure about uploading that photo of your rig... I know that there is a size limit. Mike can look into that I am sure... Maps/directions/departure times are getting tweaked this...

RE: Re: RE: Who is going on the 2007 East Coast Convoy? Yes, even with my bugging him more then he deserved... :) I owe him a round or two when we get to Aberdeen... :beer: Register, order a t-shirt (so you can have BBQ), check back often as the enhancements (route info, etc.) get...

Glad to hear that you got them working. Appreciate hearing what the fix was and getting some closure on the thread. :)

Re: RE: Deuce Roadmaster I LIKE IT :) I wish that I had thought of that one, but it'd get me in just as much trouble on my NCDOT rig as Frank would get into having it on his ride... I don't live between the bases like he does, but I work in a building full of folks who are on base every...

Adam, The shirts that you ordered are for the East Coast Convoy and will server as your ticket to Friday's BBQ. I think that the shirts Maddawg is refering to are Steelsoldiers shirts... Two different things... :) You can never have too many shirts... :) Thanks! Looking forward to meeting...
