Uh-huh....and guys have walked through minefields before without getting hurt, too. That doesn't mean it's safe to do. It also doesn't mean that its not putting others at risk due to our choices.

You can also get a pintle hook to go in any 2" reciever hitch. Cost should be $80-120 depending on where and when you buy it. I set mine up on an adjustable height plate and put the pintle at the highest holes to keep the trailer more nearly level. The pioneer trailer sits dead level with the...
Welcome to the site. Sorry about OU last night. Our family used to live in C-bus and my oldest brother still does. I haven't yet called to see if he has recovered from the game.
Don't ask what street we lived on. I know it was in the university district but I was 3 when we moved. :)

That 76" may be a typo 'cause the M101 bed is 96" In fact the tailgate usually closes tight on a sheet of plywood or a 8' table.
Geez, this is asking a lot of my brain cell with only one cup of coffee but I thought the M105 bed was just over 10'? I'll check in a bit when I go out to the shop...
Dakota, Desertfox is right. There are enough things to do to get it right and on the engine with the engine timed to the injector pump that there is no way to fit it into an email.
Also, the TM has good pictures and diagrams. I can tell you the the whole thing goes a lot easier with the...
US DOT and NY regs say it's what the data plate states or what weight you registered it for, whichever is lower. your state may vary but I doubt it.

How are the bolts and rubber shock bushing that hang the T-case and the cross brace it bolts to? Did you check the driveshafts for u-joint play? How about the torque rods and all the hardware invoved in hanging all three axles?
I'm kind of wondering if some movement or vibration is being felt...
As said, an 8 ton bottle jack is the standard roadside jack. 6 ton jack stands are fine for any axle on an M35A2 or an unloaded 5 ton cargo, dump etc but I suspect they would be scimpy at best for the rears of a wrecker.
If you are working on anything other than concrete make sure you have...
I'll be taking one out of what was a good running truck with a rusty rear body. It should be out tomorrow or the next day since I'm pulling the engine. I can ship it. PM me if interested.

My deuces are with JC Taylor also. $78 a year. I have $6K in comprehensive so they know they are on the hook for that much and it establishes an insured value.
The only recent claim in our family was from a guy who backed into Nancy's Lesabre at a rtaurant. Before I got the 20 minutes to...
I guess it depends on what you mean by "rallys"
As I mentioned to you before the NY-PENN MVCC has an active chapter down your way. They will have better info. I think membership is only $12 or so a year.
There is an event in Norwich each year. I've never been there but a little homework or...
Welcome aboard and thank you for serving.
There are no better or worse engines or transmissions. AC will be tough if not cost prohibitive. If the kids are young the noise vibration and jarring on bumps could be a safety issue. As you know, these thing are not housebroken. They ride pretty...
1. Rifle racks were unit installed and came in at least 3 versions. Many trucks never got them at all.
2. If you look at the contract number on the data plate, the 7th and 8th digits represent the year of the contract. The truck could be a couple of years newer due to the length of some...
There are a lot of site members in LA. I'd start a thread with a title like ""Need M35 towed near XXXX" and see what happens.
As far as using a .45 because shooting twice is silly; I always shot until I saw the desired effect, then reloaded.

P.S. Save the partial magazines. You may...
They make an ointment that will cure that itch....:roll:
That said, welcome to the herd!
"My name is Lance and I'm an addict..."
What part of Florida are you in?
Matgg2448- welcome! There are a gazillion threads here on the pluses and minuses of buying direct from GL. I'd suggest starting...
This is also posted as a classified. I can get the parts to the NJ MTA show on April 17 or to the Aberdeen show. There is a possibility of getting parts to Haspin. Delivery charges may be billed in beer. :roll: For delivery stuff I may want a deposit before I take the time to pull things...
