Have you checked the function of the brake light switch on the air pack/master cylinder?

Doing fine in Laramie County WY. If only these winds would knock it off… getting ready for the Christmas parade and several Toys For Tots events. How goes it there?

In today’s world, saying things in short chopped sentences gets you tookus in kink.

The individual in the story was a retired soldier who spent his career in scouts. He was addressing a group of “trainees” that couldn’t tell their back end from a hole in the ground. IMHO, he was commenting on their lack of masculine characteristics.

I am in like Flint!

John Ringo “Black Tide Rising” series. Outstanding author!

That just plain sucks donkey water through a sewer hose 🤬! Up here in Wyoming, I haven’t had any problems with titling my 10 military vehicles, the oldest of which is a 1944 G506. I’m a firm believer in Karma. These poofters are going to get a big Karma bite!

I remember seeing the pilot with a black skid mark on the top of his helmet. They were just RTB when I got to the duty section. That’s just too close. But then again, a miss is as good as a mile! Not sure what happened to the remains. Cooter brought back one of the tail rotor blades. It was a...

The Marine Corps upgraded a few A models. They put D model engines on it, the D model main gear box and some other upgrades. That was way back in the late ‘70’s, early ‘80’s. The active squadrons at Tustin used them, and they were hot rods. On the other hand, some D models got elastomeric main...

What will you do with the cab I've got? Just wondering.

Looking good! Which cab are you going to use?

I don’t have a fan clutch. I read to specs on the engine, which is a commercial engine, and it called for power steering fluid. The engine is a basic 318 “big block”. Not sure what it came out of.

My 52 M37 was equipped by the PO with a V8 and power steering. Once the truck began running, I tried to move it and the power steering pump screamed like a turbocharger full of marbles. I figured air in the system. While trying to purge the reservoir I snapped the drag link. Got it welded up...

Thank you for the info. Now if I could only figure out how four of them ended up in Wyoming...

Thanks to Hendersonj! I know what the blue/yellow items(?) were used for. He confirmed they were used to launch A4’s off of carriers. They were placed in the launch gear and once the jet had the thrust, these old break, allowing the jet to launch. The different numbers were (probably) used as...

I can’t remember where I got these. I’ve been trying to identify them but until today, I had no luck. I finally found some numbers on them. They are listed as “tension bar” and part of the A-4 aircraft launch equipment. Never seen one before and I have four of them. They have different...
