My M818 has air powered windshield wipers. I thought my driver side windshield wiper was broken. It turns out the little button by the exhaust pipe that parks the blade was stuck in. I held the park button in on the passenger side and the pressure built up enough to pop the park button out on...
I want to add a tractor protection valve to my M818. I searched and have not come up with anything on the subject. I think jwaller installed one in his M818 but I didn't find anything written up about it.
I know how the red valve would control the trailer air through the tractor protection...
I sent off form 83045 to apply for the permanent antique tag for my M818 I got a letter back from Florida DMV asking for an IRS form showing I had paid or was exempt from a heavy vehicle use tax.
I'm going to call the DMV tomorrow and see if I can get more details. I already searched HVUT on...
I recently did a brake job and repacked all wheel bearings front and back. I also replaced the hub seals on the rear axles.
The hubs on the rear axles are running what I consider too hot. After running down the highway at 50mph, the rear hubs are too hot to hold your hand on for 5 seconds. I...
I applied for the SF-97 the day after I got my truck and just received a couple of forms in the mail from GL. I have to add some information and sign them. One was application for title without registration; the other was a motor vehicle title reassignment supplement. I'm supposed to mail it...
I'm getting ready to rebuild the wheel cylinders and I was wondering if you can do that just pulling the brake drums. In the TM it looks like they always remove the hub. I can't tell from the pictures if there is enough room to get the brake shoes off.
The seals don't leak and the axles ran...
I'm getting ready to get my tag (as soon as the title shows up) and I need to decide which tag; Horseless Carriage or Antique. My wife thinks I should go with the HC because you don't see many of those.
It looks like the usage is the same for each and other than having to send the paper work...
I called the local tag office to ask about a temporary tag so I can pick up my truck next week. The answer I got was I need the title to get the temp tag. I have searched and found enough on the subject to realize others here have gotten a Florida temporary tag to retrieve vehicles.
I looked...
My EUC finally cleared :mrgreen:, and now I have a M35A2 at Ft Jackson that I need help picking up. My plan is to pick it up 3/15 or 3/16. What I need is somebody in the area that can help me check the truck over and tow it off the base for me. I have three options from there.
1. If it runs...
Well, I have succumbed to the green disease. I won a M35A2 a couple of weeks ago and the EUC went off to Battle Creek Tuesday. Some of my friends think I have lost my mind, others think it’s cool. At least my wife hasn’t told me to hit the door. She understands that while most people get into...
