Has anyone tried pulling an M1102 with a duece? I have a deuce and ran into an M1102, wondering if it has a good ride height, track width, etc for pulling behind the duece. M105 is bigger than I want, and I like the look of the 1102 vs the 101AX. I had a go at search, but didn't see what I was...

Which GL site has one of those?

I have a '67 Kaiser Jeep that had the exact same symptom. The issue was an air pressure regulator mounted on the firewall, fairly high up. The hole was small, obviously factory, and appeared to need a small screw or plug or something. It had electrical connections from it to the low pressure...

Tom: did you do a writeup on this? If I drive this thing much longer, my left leg is going to be 2x the size of my right.......

We should do an over/under on how long you could have that setup in CA before you get arrested, truck confiscated, and locked up with the cell door welded shut. I'm going to have to delete my cookies after this just in case the gov't comes checking. Nice setup, I'm jealous (if you can't...

Congrat's on a successful recovery. I wouldn't call the e-brake a recovery mishap, rather your first incident at home :cry:. For replacement components I recommend Eriks Military Surplus, for the most part I have found them to be fairly inexpensive and pretty speedy response time. I called...

I ran mine on used commercial aviation oil, it's ~100wt (vs your normal automotive ~30wt.) Initially I cut it 50/50 with diesel, but even cut like that it was too thick. It topped out ~50mph & 2000rpm WOT across the desert. It got significantly better (but still had some hesitancy at the top...

Well, we made it home safely from the final stage of the recovery. Quick travelogue: My brother and I left SLC Monday morning @ 3am local time. Somewhere between SLC and Wendover it started raining (around 4am). No heater, and a soft top meant it was really cold and a little wet inside. It...

I just did 750 miles (Ogden to Reno, Reno to Herlong and back, and then on to Sacramento) in an M35 I bought from GL. Absolutely stop in and see Markmontana's place in Ogden (Impact Guns) it's less than 5 mins from Boyce and you can see his slick truck collection and get some good G2 on the...

David: plan is to drive home on Monday 08/30 with my bro, who is flying in from Vegas for the assist. I normally wouldn't have spent a week on my in-law's couch, but there is another part still to this recovery ;-) Rayzer: I highly recommend taking the time to do at least an inspection at a GL...

Tks for posting the pic's! BTW, I ordered the turn signal switch from Erik this afternoon, they got it in the mail for me today :)

The truck performing his first piece of labor, we loaded some stuff for Markmontana in the bed as it was getting towed out. Also 2 pic's of the truck parked in my in-law's driveway in Salt Lake City:

here's the pickup at the base:

Wreckerman - tks for keeping Murphy distracted today. Recovery went very, very well. Met at Markmontana's place this morning ~8am (sweet shop, if you're ever in Ogden, worth it to swing by Impact Guns.) We picked up the tow truck and headed up to the base. Having never been at a GL site...

First stage of my recovery is complete. In my case 'starts and runs' meant started instantly and ran like a CHAMP. Half a tank of diesel. It had one bad wheel cylinder, so we towed it off base (bummer having a $200 tow bill over a $25 part, but I felt much better having it towed off base...

Tks for the comments guys. PM is absolutely first priority, the rest of the stuff is 'nice-to-haves.' Preview's suggest it's in great running order (fired right up) but needs the front wheel cylinders rebuilt at a minimum (fluid on the tires, and brake pedal to the floor, hence the tow off the...

I used RB on my Landcruiser frame. I sprayed 2 coats of the silver automotive and one coat of the black top coat. I used a spray gun, and it went on awesome. I chose the RB because it took a minimum amount of preparation (I hit the rust/frame with an air scaler and washed it good to ensure no...

I just arrived in Salt Lake City in preparation for my first ever recovery on Monday. I'll be picking up an M35 from Clearfield, and driving it back to California. Even the attempt would not have been possible without the help of a local SS member. He previewed and reviewed the truck for me...

Love the fog/running lights recessed in the bumper. Think I am going to borrow that......

I'm going to be in SoCal (Anaheim/Oceanside) the first week of Oct, any folks making a run to Fontana during that time-frame?
