    Funny thing is,that I could ship it cheaper than I could drive it! Thats why I had my two m105's shipped.

    A3 air steering assist regulator

    After a couple hundred miles my air pressure buzzer would activate. The problem was this regulator mounted on the left front inner frame rail. After removing the protective aluminum cover i found the end of the plastic housing had broken off leaving a direct air opening. I simply replaced the...

    My A3 recovery

    I had Adam (ferroequinologist) pull my M35a3 off base and check it over. This past weekend we went down and picked it up. Two dead redtops and two rear flats were the only problems. I drove about 250 miles then stopped and suddenly my low air buzzer came on. i was able to drive it home as the...

    Cab repair - 1988 Chevy

    Pull/push the damage out (in a controlled manner, not a sledge hammer). Check door fit to ensure the A pillar is in proper position, ck for roof damage. Replace rear cab panel, repair the rest. I have repaired thousands of vehicles, have multitudes of certifications and owned my own collision...

    I saw two large convoys on I26 saturday. There were approx. 20 900 series (5 ton) a number of humvees , a few of the deuce replacements and several tractor trailers with Hemmt and other equipment I could not identify. I did ask some national guardsmen about the convoys, I was told they were...

    Exchanging the brake actuator pintle to ball

    I have seen them done. Isnt the m105a3 the same setup without the ball mount? I am thinking about doing this to one of my trailers anyway.

    Removing the tire from the wheel

    Use a reciprocating saw to cut through the bead i a couple places on each side of the wheel. I have done them pretty fast this way. You can also throw them on a fire and pick up the remains after the fire dies out. I have done that as well.

    My cub cadet rider did not appreciate the tongue weight!

    Wrong trailer for yard work?

    It seems my M105a2 is not really suited to yard work, even with the side by side. I do need to flip the lunette as I have in the first one. It is also tiresome adding weight to the ranger bed to improve handling. Oh well.

    Trying to modify my Deuce to tow a U-haul, inexpensively

    My experience with u-haul has been, if your vehicles are not listed on the "tow vehicle list" and the "towed vehicle list", you will not be able to rent a trailer. Besides, wouldnt it be just as inexpensive to rent their smallest truck (approved for towing)?

    Weight of cab

    Anyone know about how heavy a stripped cab without roof would be? How about the weight of a complete door? M35a2 is what I am referencing. i bought one from a ss member approx. 225 miles away and i need to know if I am going to need equipment to lift it.

    Looking for the specific difference between "Split Rings" and "Split Rims/Widowmaker"

    Professionals put all of them in a cage before seating the bead. The reason split ring wheels have such a bad reputation is due to the number of people decapitated by them when used incorrectly. i actually knew a man who was decapitated by one. They just arent very forgiving of mistakes. They...

    6.5 detuned to a 6.2

    Seriously, the term "detuned" usually refers to minor tuning modifications intended to reduce the maximum power output. Usually a tradeoff , less power for more longevity.

    6.5 detuned to a 6.2

    Maybe it means that they are chevys instead of power strokes. rofl
