    Trouble mounting gun ring on 818

    If the mount is the same as the deuce on the front leg, some are warped and the leg will not go into it or adjust properly. We took one off a couple of weeks ago and the hole was egg shaped rather than round. You might check to see if the bracket has a round hole.

    Deuce lockout hubs

    Actually, I think the term design is what you mean. I doubt either shows signs of poor quality manufacturing. And, sometimes the more complex the design the more problem areas are found. Just thinking out loud. I have to say the only failure of either design appears to be a minor matter.

    Deuce lockout hubs

    While I do not want to restart the debate over whose lock out hubs are 'better' than another, I think it fair to point out that in all the posts here about the lock out hubs the only reports of failures involved the Ouverson. The first was by sermis, whose hub was destroyed by a highway barrier...

    Finding U6TL Battery

    O'Reily took one day to deliver two to me here. I think I paid $125 each.

    M813 has no lights working on the rear, help.

    I follow the advice of cranetruck on lights: Clean the grounds. Replace the rusty bolts, nuts and star washers after cleaning the surfaces. Sounds more like bad grounds to me than any other source, also.

    Brake Lights Always on....

    My first thought is to unplug the brake light switch. If the brake lights go out, probably a bad switch. If they stay on you have some kind of short.

    Ouverson Lockout Hubs Problem

    To my knowledge this is the first post involving a failure of either the Ouverson units or the jatonka supplied AVM lock out hubs. Keep us posted on the repair/fix/problem as you go along. Post Scrip: Actually, sermis reported destroying his Ouverson hub on a highway barrier, but that was not...

    OD Iron's Remote Oil Filter...A How To

    Over the years rumors of pre-heating oil and such have reached this place. If you live in a climate that gets that cold, you need to consider how to heat the oil and moving somewhere else, just thinking.;-) And, finally, it is much cheaper in the long run to work on clean oil and clean fuel...

    Oil Cooler Cover, Heads Up!

    Cab Reinforcement Plates

    Check out Fig. 318, pg. 318-1, Group 3307 in TM 9-2320-361-34P for the installation in the M35. This is the same for some of the 5 ton trucks also, but it is not the one in the pic by Rory. You will easily discern the difference.

    Cab Reinforcement Plates

    If you have a M66 ring mount, a M2 machine gun and shoot it a lot, the cab comes apart without one. Use the search for pics in other threads.

    OD Iron's Remote Oil Filter...A How To

    I do not think either system is a bad choice considering the alternative is the stock system. Let us know how you come out on the install.

    Spin On Primary Fuel Filter & Adapter

    The ease of installation versus time on your hands is always a consideration. My guess is the cost of the plumbing and time for the install of the Fleet Filter kind of evens things out. I looked at those Fleet Filter adapters for a long time before deciding. I finally chose the jatonka system...

    Cab Reinforcement Plates

    I am running another batch of the cab reinforcement plates this next week. Pictures of the product are at: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce-modification-hot-rodding/20387-m66-gun-ring-reinforcement-plates-here.html I hope to be able to price them once again at $150 delivered to you. I need...

    OD Iron's Remote Oil Filter...A How To

    Looking at the two systems, I have by way of disclosure the jatonka system on mine, it would appear that the jatonka system is lower in cost for the kit, both quicker to install and cheaper to operate. If there is a heater present under the hood the install time for the ODIron system would...

    OD Iron's Remote Oil Filter...A How To

    That is a very logical explanation. Thanks. I wonder, however, if anyone has tested the flow rate on any of the remote filters?

    OK, I will bite. What is oil velocity and why is that important?:?:
