So, found a listing that stated - Oil pressure at idle: 10, oil pressure at full power (max): 75. The stock gauge on my rig has a range of 0 - 120. Where would the danger area be at? I'm looking at replacing this gauge...

I'm not in any way affiliated with PartDeal.com, but I have ordered some items from then before and they often have competitive prices. Typically, I check several sites before I buy and I encourage others to do the same. Their code for the next 10 days is "partdeal10" for 10% off any purchase...

On the M35A2, the wheel bolt holes are chamfered. Are the wheels considered stud piloted or hub piloted wheels? I thought they were hub piloted, but in hub pilot systems, there is no chamfer on the bolt holes - at least on modern wheels.

So, it's not that I'm anti-social, but my passenger seat is probably empty 99% of the time. Ok, maybe I'm a little anti-social. Has anyone ever heard of/seen a temporary vehicle seat? Something that can be broken down and stored away or collapses in some way - function over comfort. I will...

So, this is kind of experimental at this point. I currently have adapter plates on MRAP wheels (super singles). Which work fine, but no tire place will touch them. I've been thinking of getting a wheel specifically fit for the deuce. Now, I know there is a shop in the US (somewhere in the...

Some background: The truck is at a mechanic getting some misc. work done. Right now I have more money than time, and some things are beyond my ability. One of the things done was to swap a new hydraulic head as the old one had a leak (I sent him a link to how it was done here - also he...

So, I'm about a third the way through my 30 point "checklist of fun" and I'm thinking about item 20, the camper. Is there anyone here that knows more than the average person about structural tubing, aluminum vs steel vs ?? that I can pick their brain with a few questions? I'm also wondering if...

So, I'm about to put some stuff in my cab that might be attractive to thieves. Obligatory: I know nothing can be fully secure, I just want to prevent opportunity thieves, drunks, amateurs and/or slow someone down as I also intend on sleeping in the back while traveling. Anyone seriously...

I'm debating about putting on air lockers or not. One mechanic friend is like, it's a 6x6, you'll never need them, but another mechanic (and also my opinion) is that if I ever do need one, it'd suck to be without. I don't plan on doing any rock crawling, but beach/desert sand, unimproved...

Seems like there should be a sticky thread labeled this. Hard to do a search for something you don't know the name of. M35A3 air intake assembly Anyways, in the attached diagram, off to the side of the main vertical cylinder there is a little...shunt? and an opening that looks like it needs...

So, I'm looking at "no-idle" hvac units and they cost a fortune, easily double the cost of non-idle - thousands of $! The reason I want no idle is I want to eventually turn this into a camper and idling these trucks is insane. If I could figure out a way to delete this post I would. I'm...

High-Low PTO shifter boot Anyone got a good solution for a transfer case boot? I'm afraid my ignorance is great in this area. I've found a number on the web but the ones I've looked at don't list dimensions. Is the size universal and does this apply to the deuce? Has anyone found one they...

Can anyone recommend a line of gauges that closely match our dash gauges? I'm replacing them because I want them to be lighted and some of the solutions I've read about don't appeal to me. Also, I'm about doubling the number of gauges and thought it would just be easier with all new. While I...

This is gonna be an ongoing thread as I want to include both the hood and the cab. My general plan is a thin underlay followed by something thicker. For the hood, I also plan on doing the firewall, at least with the thinner layer. Then a thicker hood liner I did a bit of searching on the web...

So, I'm putting 2 layers of sound insulation under the hood and after the first layer it's really added a bit of weight to the hood. I'll have to install a handle as it's now a bit harder to lift. I'm also concerned about the hinges. Those that have added a hood liner and/or sound insulation...

Looking at the mud flap and regulations around the country, I realize it's too short. Now, I don't expect I'd get pulled over...unless a cop was behind me and a rock flew into their windshield. So, the mud guards behind my wheels are 21" wide, which appears to be a non-standard size in the...

So, aside from problems with the injector, my deuce has really done well by me. I've put a few thousand miles on it and driven it over the Cascade Mts. 5 times now. I'm making a few changes with the idea of going on some serious, potentially months (years?) long trips. Is there...

If this has been posted before, well, I searched and couldn't find it, so I'm posting it now in case anyone does a search under the title key words. When I searched I did find threads but with no specific numbers, just advice on how much would probably be good enough. The ground/negative wire...

Pardon my ignorance in this post. I was crawling under my truck today and noticed this hole that looks like a plug should be screwed into it maybe?

I'm doing some work on the battery box and figured now's a good time to change the battery cables. I'm upgrading them to a thicker cable, y'know, because I can. On the passenger side, corner of the cab is an external power plug. I'm wondering if I should cut this out of the system. I've...
