    Slave plug for MEP genset - cost effective options(?)

    I was going to ask how everyone was slaving generators over with external batteries and connecting battery connectors. Is electrical taping the terminals together enough? Or is removing the terminals, bolting the lugs together, and then covering in electrical tape preferred?

    M809 and m35a2 cabs same?

    Later cabs were universal as well, and had knock outs for both steering wheel column locations. Is that reinforcing mounting plate bolt on or welded to the cab? Early Gasser Deuce cabs had some other differences as well, notably a flat firewall.

    M809 and m35a2 cabs same?

    The cab tubs themselves are the same as I recall. Dashboards are different but you can change them out. Seats are the same.

    BRDM-2 street legal.

    BDRMs are over-width as I recall which means you need permits to move it, which would be prohibitive for daily use. Parts are also hard to come by stateside which would make the maintenance and upkeep involved with daily driving one difficult. Visibility also is not conducive to daily driving.

    M1009 Blazer 31 Gallon Tank

    Has anyone here done the swap to the 31 gallon tank on their Blazer? What tank and sender did you use? I searched the forums here but was getting some conflicting information. I'm seeing tanks for 82-86 gas and 87-91 TBI trucks available but no diesel. Can anyone say for sure or not if the skid...

    Is it a multifuel or Mack diesel? Definitely looks like it was well loved and cared for.

    Were the M151s and the M151A1s in anyway better than the M151A2s?

    One advantage of the earlier models is the M151A1 saw more widespread use in Vietnam than the A2 if that means anything to you. I personally prefer an A2 for all the reasons stated.
