I used to be able to select 3, 6, or even all 20 photos all at once and upload them. Now, sometimes if select more than one photo at a time nothing gets uploaded. Similar to what occurred previously the upload manager will "spin" and then stop and nothing will be uploaded. Unfortunately it...

It seems that PNG files upload to a smaller resolution than JPG files. Using Firefox 54.0.1 (32-bit) Windows 10 Professional 64-Bit, Version 1607, OS Build 14393.1480 Yes, the PNG's have been edited (in Windows Paint) and cropped (in Windows 10 default photo viewer), but the PNG files are...

I'm planning ~700 mile round trip from northern Utah to western Idaho in my 1972 M35A2. I have a family member following me in my Dodge Dakota pickup. I've done short, 2-vehicle "convoys" stints before getting firewood with my brother. He tried leading with his civilian pickup truck at first...

I will be attending the Idaho Military Vehicle Preservation Association (MVPA) Military Vehicle Show and Swap meet and I have reserved a 20'x40' vendor space. The show is scheduled to run Saturday, June 24th through Sunday, June 25th, 2017 and will be held at the High Desert Harley-Davidson...

In 2013 I replaced my failed, stock 6TL batteries with a pair of Group 31 batteries from NAPA P/N: 7235. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?124577-Electric-problem&p=1551667&viewfull=1#post1551667 For over 3 and 1/2 years I used a single ratchet strap to hold down the batteries. This...

I've resisted creating the usual, "everything I've done to my deuce thread", as I prefer each topic to have its own thread (more or less). It is my opinion that doing so it more useful to others who may be interested that particular item and it helps keep the thread more focused and on topic...

Valence's 1968 M101A1 Trailer On Saturday, February 25th, 2017 I drove to Nephi, UT and purchased this 1968 M101A1. No manufacturer was listed on the data plates (body or frame). It's very complete with side boards, bows, corners, and split swinging rear gates, and even the original front rack...

And I don't mean a pooper. :lol: Last fall I had a really great experience sleeping on a cot in the bed of my my M35A2. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?161052-Utah-offroad-trip-to-5-mile-pass Of course I want to improve that experience! What I'm working on is to create a...

I've put air-assist steering on my M35A2 (besides partially wishing I had went actual power steering), performing low speed maneuvers in a parking lot, or while driving off road over rocks and ruts consumes a lot of air. Typically, this triggers the deuce's low air-pressure buzzer, which is the...

So far, I've covered my M105A2 trailer in its entirety with a 20' x 20' poly tarp for not quite 3 years. I think a full 3 years is about all I'm going to get out of the tarp and bungees before they fail. The tarp and bungees cost me about $85. I wonder if leaving the trailer uncovered and just...

I thought I posted about this before, but all my searching has been unsuccessful. (Note, this event happened in 2014) My M105A2 trailer came with a spare front/rear rack. I thought the external side storage pockets were nifty. The rack is seen here, hours before, stored on the driver's side...

When is Steel Soldiers going to store uploaded pictures in larger formats? The desire to have pictures self-contained on the website so threads remain valid and pictures don't die on 3rd party hosting is working against itself when pictures are reduced to sizes smaller than computer...

I realize I'm bumping a thread that has been dormant for 6 years, but I just hate to see questions unanswered when I know of at least one answer. This seller "JAGMTE" (Just A Guy Making Things Easier) also sells heavily on eBay. But save a few dollars (already expensive enough) and you can...

I've browsed this topic on Steel Soldiers for quite some time. There's some pictures out there as others have already done this, but I couldn't shake the bug of wanting a vise on the front bumper of my deuce. It seemed like a very handy tool to have on the truck. I honestly would rather not have...

After replacing my master cylinder and air pack on my M35A2 with new ones, I have a slow leak at the air pack banjo bolt on the line from the master cylinder (not the banjo bolt to the rest of the brakes), and I just can't seem to get it to stop. On this reused banjo bolt, I have installed a...

I put a NOS air assist steering package on my M35A2 about 1.5 years ago. The low-pressure cut-off valve that you install on the firewall is leaking air, not a lot, but enough. Is it possible, or "okay" (not going to damage it?) to take the top 4 allen bolts off and add some RTV to try and...

The front shackle pins have a thin plate tack welded to their head. From that plate a short chain runs to the clip. This keeps the shackle pin and its clip together and certainly helps reduce the chances of losing either, but mostly from losing the pin's safety clip. I would like to do the...

Just a heads up for, at least, Utah folks looking to use Fastenal to receive shipped pallets from the east to the west: Fastenal does not have room. After submitting the online request: https://www.fastenal.com/en/22/third-party-logistics-%283pl%29 I received an email from Sierra McNamee in the...

Is the "short" air pack *exactly* a direct bolt-in replacement for the "long" style? I've read through a number of threads, Gimpy's exhibits what I'm talking about: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?40509-long-VS-short-airpack-pics I'm just wanting positive confirmation that a...
