I have been looking for a mill for a while. I even bid on some on GL. I saw this one and decided to pull the trigger. I picked up this Gorton 0-16a knee mill. It has an adapter to run r-8 collets and came with a bunch, but I'll still be looking for the Gorton collets($$$). Can't wait to bring...
I am looking for pics of my wrecker in the mudhole at Haspin 08. I looked through the 08 pic thread and didn't find the one I was looking for. If you have pics from 08, could you post them for me?
Looks like I will be headed to Ky to help Joe take a truck apart. You have all been put on notice that I may need help if my truck breaks down this weekend. If anyone is in the area and wants to help wrench, or just laugh and point fingers, we could use some company.
Joe, I am bringing wrench...
Seems he is driving a deuce from NY to FL. He called me with an RPM issue. He said initially, he could run 2400 rpm, now the truck is struggling to hit 2000rpm. I had him check for brake drag and he didn't find any hot hubs. I figure its probably the fuel filters. I tell him how to check to see...
I ended up with 2-55gal barrels of Mobil DTE24 hydro oil, still un-opened. I was told I need to watch what hydraulic oil goes in to make sure I don't burn up my pump. I am not sure what to look for to verify this will work in my M62. Anyone able to offer assistance?
Going to inspect a crane this weekend. If it works like he says it does, I will be bringing it home. Its at a place where they know nothing about it other than it "works". Is there anywhere I can find info on model #s? Most of my searches are dead ends. I know it will lift 7klbs @ 6ft and...
So lets say you want to move a 5ton gasser from its current location to one thats 4 hrs away. Would you flat tow it with a deuce with the glad hands hooked up(yes the brakes work) or would you try to put 395s on the middle axle, disconnect the rear(DS) and use the airswitch you installed to...
I picked up some Scot pump motors off ebarf pretty cheap. The motors are fine, but the relays don't work. I'm not sure I bypassed it right though. I plugged in the Slave cable and nothing happened. I counted on that. There is a plug that looks like it is for a remote to plug into. I figured...
Parts I am bringing for people at the rally!

I have seen guys get beat up for having the smallest lift blocks on their front axle. What do you think about these?
Jeep | eBay
Yeah, I know about linking to ebay, but I don't care.
I picked up some led turn signals for my truck. I figured since the headlights and taillights were so nice, why not turn signals. I had seen some posts indicating fitment issues, the only thing I ran into was the two outside screws don't line up. With the top screw and bottom two holding well, I...
I had access to a gasser 5ton motor but it is gone. I got this PM and checked some sources, no help. Can anyone help this SS member?
"Saw you had posted earlier info on Continental engine R6602. I am seeking a thrust retainer plate (Diamond shaped) from cam shaft end. Would you have old one...
