    M35 series cold weather hood and side covers

    Full version of Adobe Acrobat lets you "extract" pages from .PDF files. Also real good for cleaning up and minimizing scanned .PDFs (although they are still big files...). Can also "insert" pages to let you combine .PDFs.

    M35 series cold weather hood and side covers

    possible correction I think he meant TM 9-2320-361-20 page 14-18 I've attached the extracted pages. Believe it or not I've got a winter front, and need to put it on. I takes forever to get warm enough air to de-mist the windshields if it's under about 60F, and even our winters are stupid...

    new hydraboost doesnt have plug

    I think you are referring to the "stoplight switch" as it's called in the TMs. Was originally in the hydraulic line, and at some point changed to putting it in the air line (I think the one that goes to the service brakes gladhand). A tee is swapped in for an elbow in the air line, as part of...

    STE/ICE display fix

    An STE/ICE set can supply most (maybe all) of the diagnostic info called for in the trouble shooting sections of the various vehicle TMs (at least for the pre ~1990 years). They are primitive computers with various sensors - electrical, pressure, etc, and lots of adapters. They provide nothing...

    Nice ! I think that is a new idea for securing the trucks.

    4th Semi-Annual Texas MV Rally

    Lessons learned I have been to all three of the rallys, and truly appreciate the work Lincoln puts into them. When I had more time I was very involved in several of the regional meets our Triumph car club puts on every few years, and know how much time it took as just one member on the...

    STE/lCE tester- what do they do and do they exist anymore?

    If I bring mine to the rally as well, are there some sort of party tricks we can do with 3 ? If either of you need a .PDF of the manual, let me know.

    Turbocharger Manual for Deuce Series

    Here is the LOGSA link I use - https://www.logsa.army.mil/etms/index.cfm no special credentials needed. But the military sites use a id certificate series that isn't registered with most web browsers, so you have to tell your browser that the certificate is ok and to accept it. (Note that...

    between body panels

    Mine has (had) what looks like canvas fire hose material at those places. On one side it had pretty much rotted away, and the rattle was louder then the exhaust ! Used some fairly soft rubber sheet as a replacement (cut to size), seems to work fine. What ever you use, just make sure it...

    G177 MVT tire pressure???

    My deuce is on G177s, still all 8 in back. I ran them at ~90 PSI at first, partially to help even out any flat spots (they were surplus). Very bouncy back and squirrely front handling. I'm down to 45 PSI in the back, and 70 in front now (with winch), and the ride and handling is much better...

    Starting-out concerns??

    If you've got a good selection of normal tools, you're just going to need some bigger stuff: 3/4" drive socket set (or maybe even 1") the special 8 point axle nut socket (3", OTC part # 1907) 3 to 10 ton jack stands and jack (extra tall or some heavy cribing and steel plate scraps) 3/4" open end...

    Purpose of "Reset" Button on Wiper Motor?

    There are passages in the wiper case that make up a very simple air logic circuit, as the inside piston moves back and forth, different holes in the circuit (and I think there was a check ball in there somewhere), are opened and that switches which side of the cylinder is pressurized. After you...

    4th Semi-Annual Texas MV Rally

    November 18-20 looks good for me. I will have my brakes fixed by then !!! Maybe even the new M105 camping trailer (I may have to bring it just so my wife doesn't have to look at it over the weekend....).
