WD40 isn't water based, it is a Water Displacer, many use it during the parkerizing process, sprayed on the steel part after it is pulled from the acid solution and rinsed, the WD40 raises any water to the surface and whatever petroleum distillate in it prevents the steel from rusting.

Anybody have any smaller crate items shipped out of LEAD? I was looking at an item but its in a huge unneccessary crate that puts it oversize for UPS and all that wood adds wasted weight.
Every week we get reports of Illegal aliens driving drunk, killing and maiming American Citizens, but this is the nationwide effort under the bold-faced lie of "highway safety"
Installed two antenna mounts (86HMMWV's custom cut internal backer plates were perfect fit) on the wheelhouses per the TM, started working on converting an A0 M1025 windshield frame for the two-point side mirrors, removing the lolipop mirror bases for a Navigator/TC External A Pillar GPMG Pintle...
That's some nice work! I can imagine how much time you put into all that, I was just thinking about something to prevent burning my right calf on the transmission tunnel while driving wearing shorts. Turning the inside of your HMMWV into a padded cell! Nice! :razz:
The problem is, their original claim Mil Veh are not up to standards is being deceptive. By their statement you would think mil veh are not safe to drive on public roads or autobahns, but vehicles that are designed and built to serve during WAR are built to a higher standard, just lacking the...
Proof again to never use "feel good" parts designed by high school kids in a combat vehicle. Just like DOD mandated by law to use X amount of alternative fuels even if they cost 20x what petroleum based do, not even considering the costs to get one gallon into Afghanistan.
They are wasting time, Sept 30 is coming quickly.

I also have two each 3x7.62 12x50BMG GMV Ammo Can racks to horse-trade. Probably an earlier...
Waiting on seller to give me the tag #s still present on that sub bundle so I can determine just how much needs spliced on and where they go. I'm about ready to just pull the trigger on it, then worry about splicing it when it gets here. I let Kevin drive it around about an hour after we...
The buyer stopped by yesterday to test drive it again, and we found the electrical problem by accident. After I had checked the voltage on the starter switch I guess I crossed the two hot Packard connectors. Kevin was under the battery box tracing the sub harness assembly of black nylon mesh...
The #6 cable is the one I moved when pop riveted the L angle aluminum pieces on the outboard side to use J bolts and flat bars for hold downs. It was routed under the shunt, I unbolted it from the Positive anchor bolt, re routed it over top the shunt to make room for the J bolt and wing nut...
The new jumper cable, Napa didn't have #0 but had next larger #1 sized cable. I used flux core solder to attach the copper eyes.
The only cable leaving the battery box from the Positive anchor lug is Cable tagged #6 and it goes directly to the big lug on the 200amp alternator.
