RE: OLD Metal lights Cut the front bracket so that the wire hole is keyhole shaped instead of round... It is pretty obvious how much metal to remove when you hold the new light fixture up to the bracket. Drill two new mounting holes about a quarter of an inch below the existing mounting holes...

You would think that would be the case, but I sure haven't seen any comming up for auction in the Southeast. See a lot of the M59 ranges (minus the burner assembly), lots of burner asssembly parts, lots of range outfit parts, but no kitchen trailers... I see a lot of the other pieces of...

I've got a truck that I should be parting out in the next couple of weeks that has a radiator in it that was installed just before it blew an engine and was surplused... Shipping from NC could be a tad high, but considering the cost that you have been quoted, you could come out looking much...

It's a little bit larger than I could use... It looks like it is riding on a flatbed trailer very similar to one that I have in my backyard that is designed to be towed by a five ton... I have been kicking myself ever since I passed up on a MKT-75 (mobile kitchen trailer mounted on a 1.5...

RE: db2 rebuild Chason Diesel Injector Service in Garner are the go to guys in the Raleigh NC area... I send everything injector pump related to them... Last one was a Bosch VE pump off a Cummins B engine and it ran right at $300 including tax for a complete reseal and adjust... The...

Yeah, I got the hydraulic head back this morning... I've had a day, so I haven't gotten around to calling UPS to ask "what in the world...". Keep in mind that they promissed that I would get a call in the AM to update me on status when the folks who investigate lost packages got in to work...

So, do I get to see it (and photograph it) when I come up for the show that we are having in western NC?? How is the wrecker comming along? (I know what it's like to be wrenching on more than one truck at once...)

It's good to hear that Bjorn is moving along again... And to see everyone pulling together to keep him rolling. Who's along the route to his next scheduled stop?

This may be more appropriate for a whole new thread, but since it concerns the lost hydraulic head... I finally managed on Saturday to talk to a person high enough up the management chain at UPS to get them to admit that the folks who actually investigate this kind of fault don't work on...

5:44 Eastern... UPS says "We are conducting a trace and we will let you know if we find it. We are sorry for the inconvience." Some days it works, some days it doesn't...

RE: hi jeff Makes me feel better when I think of the three trucks sitting in a line in the backyard waiting for me to finish the house renovations... I really would rather work on a truck than a house...

No, nothing wrong with the packaging... Brand new head in its box (never been on a truck), packed inside another box with a two inch buffer between the box surfaces filled with shredded paper.. Both UPS's big label and two large Avery lables on it clearly marked to and from). Done this...

I actually just spent a little over an hour at the local UPS hub (big one at the airport) raising hell... They admit that it got picked up at my office, but after that, they have no clue... The trace from our end will take one to eight days... Of course, they offered to refund my shipping...

I also called and left a voicemail on Bjorn's phone, but have not heard from him... Of course, none of my messages over the last couple of days seem to have gone through, so I wonder if his phone is actually in a service area... Hope that the part is not lost in the UPS system..

Don't know about Krylon, but I do know that RustOleum is the same chemistry as Gillespie. I use RustOleum Rusty Metal Primer (the red version) under the Gillespie that I use to paint most everything in the yard. I did, however, paint a pair of M101 trailers with a "homebrew" OD using a...

I got one for GSA once that had inop. brakes... Turns out that somebody had carefully removed the air activated stop light switch (the newer upgrade one that was installed on some trucks in place of the hydraulically activated switch) and every time that you hit the brake pedal, air just blew...

Check the grounds out (including the one on the towing vehicle (if your harness is like the ones on the M37, M38, M35's that have a short gournd line included) making sure to check that both mounting bolts on any given light assembly are grounding... The wiring will hold up to the current...

Will have it (brand new head) overnighted this afternoon... It's 2.18PM in Raleigh. I just overnighted by UPS. Should be at your location by 10:30AM your time. Called and left a message on your cell with the tracking number. (since I don't think anyone would mind, and so everyone can...

Saw this shot while searching for some other stuff and noticed the truck... No info on it, but it looks like it's been modified a bit and that it is working (got a load for sure). Enjoy... http://www.dirtbike.ws/node/4994

Good point. Mine are all installed... I've only had this truck for four or five years now and I have no idea of its prior history except that it spent time at Myrtle Beach, SC (it is a USAF truck) before the base was closed...
