    Hooklift Unit om FMTV or LMTV?

    A client of mine in Hawaii was going to have me install one on a 1078 that I picked up for him, then he found a 5t FMV with a factory mounted unit on GL IN Hawaii which he GRABBED fast, needless to say the 1078 project got dumped and the hook unit sold.

    Broken Transfer case?

    NO, STALLING it should not break anything, If it is leaking from the output I would guess a seal, is the output loose, can you see any cracks, I would think /look/read a bunch BEFORE you pull the transfer.

    Deuce Front Bumper Tow Bar Mount (again)

    It is NOT weight to the ground that is the issue, it IS the weight on the axle it self that is the issue, a deuce wo/w is close to max axle support weight, adding a winch puts it almost at max axle support weight

    2018 Georgia Military Vehicle Rally buy-sell-trade

    I may have some more leads but no trailer wiring, the wiring is the old THREE wire wiring, one to the left TS/B, one to the right TS/B, one the the running lights,(both tied together), if you want to use black out lights, it is SIX wires to the back, the ground is the frame, it is picked up at...

    fuel shut off on M977

    As far as I remember, it is can not be rebuilt, the shut down solenoid should be a standard DD 24v part that can be gotten at almost any big truck or big equipment shop, or maybe even NAPA.

    1955 GAZ 69AM Transmission Fork Installation?

    I am guessing the the trans is NOT synco. As I see it, those wires are there to help bring the shift rod back to natural when shifting, being they are spring loaded, I would think straight down would work, the wires would ride on the second flat spot and be able to move a bit due to the springs.

    302 vs 331 Holley carb

    Lead plugging/redrilling was done all the time back in time, no big deal, when Swiss and I get around to it, we are going to use epoxy instead of lead to do some jet playing from the m62 carb, We already put shaved heads (3/16) on to raise the compression, it seems to start better.

    302 vs 331 Holley carb

    Maybe get to the Governor a bit quicker, should not affect the modded cad. trans, use a bit more gas, that's about it, the old cast iron cad trans should handle 400 + hp easy, since the 302 is no where near that I do not see a issue, it will shift faster due to reaching rpm faster and a bit...

    Thoughts on an FMTV bumper on a CUCV?

    Why, the CUCV bumper is stronger then the POS LMTV bumper.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    You will notice how high he was, pulling up killed the other puller, transferred ALL the weight to him, a sure win.

    transfer case fill cap ??

    A hand pump on top a 5 gal bucket of gear oil works for me. PS, The -10 and the -12 will show you the fill points, the -10 is the operators manual, the -12 is the lube order, it just might be a good idea to read these TMs.

    Frame Stretch

    The reason that I stated plug weld instead of bolts is that I have found that bolts would tend to walk (stretch a bit) a bit due to the stress and torque on the rail, even grade 8, once the bolts stretched the fish plate was no longer supporting the stress from the repair/mod which in turn =...

    WMO in CUCV

    The ONE thing NOBODY tells is HOW TO GET THE ACID OUT OF THE BLEND, even after a long fast spin, the acid is still there, being that everything but the multi is NOT A THROW AWAY ENGINE, there is no way someone can say the acid is not hurting things, more clearances, in the ip/injectors, valves...
