    What this says to me is that the other 99.9999999 % don't care either way. But then that is the way it is in our political elections also. Then the ones that did not vote Bit$h about the outcome. I just find it amazing the things we can find to make such a big deal about. Sheesh, don't you...

    5 ton t-case confusion

    When you shift into reverse you hear air and a clunk, that is the shifter engaging the reverse sprag. If you let the truck roll forward with the trans in reverse then the front will try to turn the wrong way and bind up the wheels. Just the reverse if in low gear. I think once you leave first...

    M151A1 brake fluid

    The Military used silicone, which is DOT 5 because water will not mix with it. A lot of these vehicles sat for long periods of time, so with water inspersed in the fluid componets would rust. I have rebuilt several systems that were extremly cruded up but the componets honed clean quickly with...

    Master Cylinder Rebuild

    I have rebuilt many master cylinders just not on M37's. Rebuild is fine if it hones out clean and will be cheaper. But if you don't get a shiny surface on the complete bore it will not hold up. If it were me I would hone my master and evauate its condition and go from there.

    And once again we are building up to an explosion that is uncalled for. Every post is getting more heated and it is uncalled for. This is Chris's site and he can do what ever he wants and the decision to stay or leave is yours. He could pull the plug tonight and what would you say then. I...

    I have read this complete thread and have a couple thoughts. The only thing you need to worry about as an individual SS member is this, is the site worth $15.00 a year to me. It does not matter what Chris makes off the site it is what it is worth to you. Have you every thought about how much...
