6.2 production stopped in the early 90's. There was still a need for engines meeting the 6.2 specs for HMMWV's, and it was far cheaper and easier to just turn the fuel down on 6.5's that were in production than keep two lines open. The military was rebuilding 6.2's as well up until a few years...

All the detuned part means is that the fuel rate on the injection pump was turned down so that the 6.5 had the same output as a 6.2 when put in a truck that had a 6.2 originally.

Hmmmmm- thats a lot better than my idea of flipping a seocnd bed on top. Now to watch Craigslist for a proper cover..............

If you are doing low volume, water seperator may be cheaper. When you are doing volume heat will cost far less than replacing water block filters.

Biggest advantage is getting it hot enough to boil the water off.

You may not have a title, but I doubt the government would lay any claim to it now. And in those parts I am certain you don't have a radiator support.........

Yup. Only WWII vehicles allowed inside the show, and only if you are pre-registered. It may sound restrictive, but once you get inside, you will see the huge size and scope of this show and understand why they run it like they do. The flea market alone is worth it, much less the amazing show...

3rd Armored Division Field Artillery. If the right says "HB54" that would be Headquarters Battery, truck # 54. There was no set number scheme army wide then, but most commonly trucks in the 50's would be the HQ section or the maintenance section.

I will be there!

Won't a Brit generator head be 220V only, and 50hz?

I have been selling M-67 immersion heaters like hotcakes lately for folks using them to boil the water off WMO and WVO. Other than them I don't know of a way to get that much that hot aside from Wreckermans method of wood heating. There is a guy on Youtube with a whole series of videos...

That tire clearly has been driven while flat. It doesn't take much of that to ruin one- I would not trust that tire on the highway in the summer heat at Barstow.

I may be able to lay my hands on another set of bows here in NC, let me look.

Do yourself a favor and plan to tow it. Driving a truck away is a crapshoot, at best. You don't have a title or tag so it isn't legal to be on the road, you don't have any clue what kind of shape it is in, and you know it has been sitting for months with zero maintenance and lots of chances...

Do they make one sized for an M101 bed?

I need to be able to lock it- welding leads and tools are too inviting for thieves to leave under canvas.

Go get that sucker and don't look back.........

The wheels are turning......

Yeah- now I am thinking I need to hinge the front and have a way to lift the top one up:grin:

I was talking to a buddy of mine today about putting my welder on a trailer. Ideally I want a pioneer trailer for it, but I haven't had any luck finding one lately. He came up with the idea of flipping a second M101 trailer body over and putting it on the top of the first one, like a camper...
