This is exactly what I meant to say yesterday via text, when I mentioned the trailer air tanks draining the truck's tanks..... Thanks Toby! [thumbzup]

Same thing just happened to me. I've rebuilt several long & short Air Packs with no issues; this one I rebuilt a year ago on a friend's truck, along with master cylinder & every wheel cylinder....I also added a remote reservoir on the firewall. It has been working fine for about 9 or 10 months...

A friend of mine had similar problem, turned out to be bad "bow tie" clip on HH plunger.

Welcome aboard from Las Vegas, Nevada (for now; move underway to Utah).

I'm happy that you will give it a good home! [thumbzup]

Just saw pics of BGT at its new home, BGT is safe & sound now. I can assure you BGT is in a good place.

Your KW is AWESOME, beautiful truck!!

Welcome from Nevada! Any pics of your rig?

Rancher's Supply (perhaps some of our CO members can chime in here) seems to me to be a business that wants a quick flip of a truck for a healthy profit. I stopped in there some time ago, and after quick glances at their MVs most were in need of some good maintenance....while some had at least...

Welcome aboard from Nevada! Any photos of your CUCV available?

If you are using a battery disconnect switch, make sure that you run the 12V ground through it as well; the factory 12V feed has a separate ground return wire that runs right back to the batteries, you will have to run it through a disconnect switch as well with your 12V accessories. Otherwise...

Welcome aboard, beautiful truck you have there!

As Red and a couple of others have pointed out, it is all about leverage. Think about lifting/moving without using your body weight/strength for anything other than guidance. Get a long prybar (at least a 5-footer, don't know what that is in metric sorry, LOL), a 20-ton hydraulic bottle jack...

One of the 40-ton forklifts couldn't lift its share of the 42,600-lb M15A2, so a Case 580D loader as brought out to keep the forklift's rear end on the ground, as the lowboy trailer was backed underneath the M15A2.

I might have a couple of old air diaphragms from my M105A2s lying around, give me a couple of days to dig them out and they're yours.

Install the custom replacement air filter from Those Military Guys; there will be a noticeable improvement.

Holy cow, that's beautiful! Great work, congrats on the completion of a lot of hard work!! [thumbzup]

I seem to remember that 98G & Castle Bravo had a fun time together not too long ago, flipping hubs on a Deuce somewhere in AZ.... to me it's a good lesson for buying a Harbor Freight press (especially if you use one of their coupons). I got the 20-ton press years ago and it has paid for itself...

Nice truck, very unique with the RHD! I've found that if the truck starts, runs, and drives well, everything else is secondary and can be fixed later. I'd leave the engine alone since it's running well, just add more gears (like the 6-speed trans you mentioned). That alone will make a big...

That's why you don't fully depress clutch pedal unless you're at a stop...while shifting/range-changing only depress clutch pedal halfway as you double-clutch, and it will go smooth as butter (generally). Double-clutching works really well with Deuce transmissions too. Great thread!!
