    You will need to make sure you have plenty of clean ambient air for cooling, so may need screened / rat wire covered openings in shed with an exhaust duct to remove the hot air.

    M116A3 Fix-up & Conversion Thread

    Looks like you are kind of hard on equipment.....and I'm having a tough time understanding what part failed. I think these are Mendenhall brake actuators. What broke? The vertical 'plate' on the lunette ring?

    MEP preparedness

    Awesome. Good looking equipment. And I like the angle of that tractor muffler. Looks a lot like the one I caught on the top door jam while backing into my garage..... after I had carefully measured exactly how much of the exhaust pipe I needed to cut off. I think I missed it by 1/8 inch.
