O wise Steel Soldier sages, I need your wisdom.
I drained the transmission to install a PTO for a winch and looked at the stuff that came out and decided that it was too dirty to put back in. So I go to tractor supply and got two gallons of 90W/140 gear oil. Put in about 1 1/2 gallons and...
Anybody up for a weekend rally in southern Tennessee at a place called Wooly's Off Road park?
The price is right for admission, only $10/day for ages 16 and older. They have a website that indicates the place is closed for environmental repairs, whatever that means, and will open up in a few...
Just received my approved EUC about 10 minutes ago. Auction ended on Feb 20, sent in EUC on Feb 21, received Mar 7. Just 11 business days!
Now I just gotta go get my FOUR trucks!

Well, I've done it now. I just bought no1, not 2, not 3, but FOUR deuces from the GL lot in Smyrna, ten miles from my home. Mama just looked at me and ssked, "Where are we going to put them all?" To which I replied, "We have a big back yard. There is PLENTY of room." It's a good thing she...
It looks as though I am not going to be able to pick up the trailer I won on GL at a Fort Campbell, KY/TN auction because my deuce will not be tagged properly by the time the EUC is cleared and it is the only way I have to get it.
I will sell it for what I have in it, $264 + $36 for me. Total...
Being an electrical engineer, I thought there must be an easy way to use cheap 12vdc headlights on a 24vdc system and then it hit me: just wire the headlights in series and use a cheap relay to switch them.
The first drawing is a standard 24vdc high-low headlight wiring.
The second is...
It was such a nice day here in middle Tennessee that I just had to do some painting on my deuce. The bed drain holes were plugged and there be had about an inch of water sitting in it continuously for months at a time.
My helper is my 6 year old daughter.
The PM's I have been trying to send have been going to my outbox but appear to never be livered and never get to my sent box. Is there something I am not doing right?
Do I need to submit an EUC for each item?
Do I need to put the item number on the form somewhere along with the event number?
What if I am not sure if I will keep the item but may resell it some time in the future? Do I need to put “for intended use” in block 1A or check block 1B or...
What is the widest tire you can put on the stock deuce wheels? Is 15.5" wide and 46" tall too much tire?
Added question: What is the center to center dimension for the two rear axles?
Okay, I know that you can run pretty much any flammable liquid that you can find, but is there a recommendation of what the max portions of each you can use?
Also, I believe that I correctly interpreted the acronym "UMO" to be used motor oil. If I am correct, is there any type of filter that...
Okay, since you guys are all just a bunch of friends, I would like to join in the club. I'll check out any vehicles in Smyrna for free. All I ask is that you send me a list of items you want checked and only the vehicles you REALLY want to know about. I enjoy looking, but please don't as for me...
First, I am not a military vehicle expert, but I am a pretty decent mechanic and know how to spot a potential problem.
The vehicles in question are 75 M35A2's sitting at a NG unit less than 10 miles from my house. The inspection I am offering is to start the vehicle if I am allowed, check...
