Your mailbox is full. Can you PM me when you clear it out? Thanks Mikey

Looking forward to that write up when you get the time! Mikey

Welcome from a PA Irishman. My younger brother Jameson will be passing through Dublin next week. An M51 on those roads? You couldn't find a Willy's Jeep? Mikey

Thanks! Those are exactly the type of tips that aren't found in the TM.

Thank you everyone for the replies. This deuce came directly from GL. If that is RTV, it's army issue :) I will continue normal troubleshooting regarding the diesel in the crankcase and update the thread when I've found the culprit. Mikey

I also have diesel in my crankcase. I found this when dumping the oil. I'm pretty sure it came from the oil pan as the bucket was brand new. Does this help identify the booster pump seal, HH o ring or throttle shaft o ring? Any help is appreciated. Thanks Mikey

I have an M931A2 overhauled at Red River 8/12. Recently while moving the truck after about a few weeks of sitting the rear right wheel did not move at first. I was in soft dirt so I didn't notice immediately. I backed up a total of about 10' and it popped free after about 7'. I thought it...

Lieutenant Dan!!! You got new legs!!! Where you been bro?

I pressure washed my truck to remove loose paint. I then wire brushed it and primed the rusted or bare areas with Rustoleum rusty metal primer. I finally painted it with Behr. Two years later it is fantastic overall. There are some areas, where rust is common, that are now rusting through...

Bulldog makes them for the Govt. I just lost my jack, that's how I know. You want this: http://www.etrailer.com/p-BD500231.html Mikey

Carc 383 m931a2 I have used Mike's (wsucougarsx) CARC 383 green on my deuces and was very happy. However, I recently recovered an M939 which was overhauled in 8/12 including new paint. They painted over rust, so the paint is chipping in some areas (Imagine that???). I got a large enough...

I'm not as experienced as most guys here, but those sure don't look like drop side beds. Is that an M35A2C with a water tank added or is that an M50A3? What do your dash plates say? Mikey

John, I'm looking forward to seeing you again. I still tell everyone about my trip to your LZ and that bobbed 939. What an amazing truck and unbelievable fabricating. If anyone is on the fence about this show, you really should go just to see Jatonka's bobbed 939. Paul Wadeson says hi...

Wow, in Norwich? I'm actually moving to Norwich very soon. Already bought a house in March, waiting on a closing date. I'd like to attend the show and also meet some members from the area. Thanks for the tip! Mikey

My purchase was January of this year. All the more reason for such a thread. I searched New Castle prior to my recovery and didn't find anything pertaining to problems or theft of parts etc. I'm assuming the new rules there are in response to the problems at the end of last year. It's a...

I've had stuff disappear from deuces I've won at Mechanicsburg between bidding and pickup. I now worry about each lot I win there until it's in my possession. During my last pickup of an M105A2, I basically had free reign of a large area of the yard while the attendant helped others at the...

Is there a thread for summer?

Don't discount what Rusty said. Mine was spewing air until I rebuilt my air dryer. Has not vented ever since. Mine started expelling air BEFORE the air dryer purge valve got stuck open. Keep an eye on that purge valve when the truck is running from time to time. Your air dryer may be in the...

Mine is "BMY - Harsco", but I'm in PA. I'm sure someone in CO can let you know what their title says. Mikey

One of my deuces and my M108 wrecker. Three other trucks are not visible in the satellite image.
