Almost got a free trip to Cuba courtesy of USMC.

CARNAC I am also sorry to hear about the merchandise problem! That is the first I have heard of that happening at TP. Thanks again for bringing my pressure bleeder. Bruce

It's under the dash. It is in a black plastic box which is probably dangling down from the cable that goes to that big circular connector mounted under the dash. It is a small circuit board that fits in that case.

Someone must know where this info is. I've done a search but to no avail.

Thanks! What is the window glass size for an M35A2 please? Bruce

Can someone please point me to a post that has the front and side window sizes for an M54? Bruce

Just a thought here. Mount the winch below the bed to frame struts just to the rear of the end of the bed nearest the cab. Then have the cable come straight up at the end of the bed for maybe 2 feet to a sheave mounted on a frame bolted to the bed. This way you have the cable going directly to...

Forklift Flex Does it count if you have pictures of the results where GL lifted the whole vehicle with a forklift and left permanent markers where they flexed it?:???:

You didn't mention the standoffs that the bolts go thru. Can someone make a comment on these. Bruce

My XM211 had previous cal plates, but they were so old that they didn't have records of them. Go figure. They wanted the chp to do a vin check and since there wasn't any vin data plate, they agreed with me to use the serial number stamped into the frame which matched the dataplate on the dash. Bruce

If the diode can be verified as working by checking when the BO switch is engaged, then is it still a good idea to remove or bypass it? Bruce

Did you upgrade the headlights?

google cannon extraction tool. If you are only doing a few, all you need is the cheap ones. If you are careful, they will last. Obviously you need to get the size that fits your connector, and there are a lot of sizes. Bruce

Registered it as a historical vehicle. No problems. You may need to have a vin inspection by the CHP. Since these don't have vin stickers, be able to show them the serial number that is stamped into the frame. I think it is near the front driver side wheel. You may need to do some wire brushing...

Latency?? oh, wait a minute, this isn't the adult forum.

Personaly I would look into a brakesmart system. They use a sensor that taps off of your brake line. Yes it is more expensive, but I believe it is worth the extra money if you have an air over hydraulic system as opposed to an air brake system. My buddy installed one of their systems on my M54A2...

Thanks for the offer!!! Sent you a PM HAWKMAN. Bruce

As much as I would like for these new folks to have a forum for themselves, and leave the 5 Ton forum that was started for the M39 series trucks 8 years ago, I can appreciate the hassle it would be to make the changes, so let's just be good folks and let them share our forum with us. I figure...

I've been looking in the TMs but I can't seem to identify the part number for the metal post that separates the vent window from the side window. Mine is rusting away and I need to replace it. I have all the other channel parts and rubbers, but not that main metal post. Any help would be...

This is really strange. I started this thread. Chris was nice enough to establish the 5 Ton Forum I requested. I certainly don't mind sharing the Forum with these new people. I do feel bad for them seeing as us old folks have the best trucks.....Just kidding. :beer: Patracy makes a good point...
