    GL just lost another customer.

    They have so many new bidders that they don't care.

    Newb in N.C.

    Are you talking about remounting machine guns on your truck or more? I don't think it is legal in most places to go around with live guns mounted to your vehicle, however, there are no laws (yet) about mounting dummy guns on the trucks. Of course, machine guns are subject to the 1934 NFA and...

    I need an enclosed trailer to tow behind my Deuce

    That's okay. I have a parts truck that I can rebuilt her with.

    Step platforms and tow bar

    Yea, that extra 150# on a 13,000# truck just throws the balance all off...:wink:

    Lookeee what I just got from GSA!

    I would bet so! A2C's with winch are as rare as hen's teeth. I got this ugly duckling for a pittance. It will probably cost me more to get it home than I paid for it. And no 10% screw-you GL fee!

    Air-o-matic install

    Some commercial vehicles have pressures significantly higher than the 120 psi that a deuce runs. The seals won't hold on straight tank pressure on them. I am installing my AOM kit, too. The hardest thing was to figure out which fitting to screw in where. The parts are NOT marked and the drawing...

    Lookeee what I just got from GSA!

    She ain't pretty, but she looks to be complete and she has a winch! The winch will go nice on my A2C. Update! I got the SF-97 in the mail TODAY, just 4 days after I bought it. And I didn't have to pay anything for it! I'll never deal with GL again.

    Air-o-matic install

    cornrichard, take the regulator completely out of the system. The new kits don't even have one in them. They run of straight system pressure.

    Preparing My Truck for Classic Plates

    Who in their right mind expects 40 year old paint to be in perfect condition? Is the paint original? Yes. Are the scratches original? Yes.

    Preparing My Truck for Classic Plates

    The person you got was a mental midget with an Adolf Hitler attitude. Get in line and talk to someone who isn't at total jerk with nothing better to do than be an idiot with a tiny bit of power.

    M38A1 Overheats!

    The next suspect is a bad water pump. With the thermostat out and the engine running, you should be able to see the coolant circulating. That is if the neck is on top of the radiator and you can look down in the radiator.

    12v or 24v??

    Yes, if the positives and negatives are all tied to the same point electrically (all on the same two bus bars) it is 12 vdc. If you have the resistor bank, a 24v starter, and some time, it isn't too hard. But why would you want to?

    GL dragging feet on claim

    When you knowingly keep property that is not yours, it is theft. $3000 makes it grand theft. When GL tried to pawn off a lesser value trailer to you, they committed fraud. Threaten them with an investigation by law enforcement and see if that gets them moving.

    12v or 24v??

    Easy. Are the positive and negative battery terminals wired to common points?
  19. B

    12v question

    To find out which battery is the upper half, simply measure the voltage on the positive terminal to ground. The upper battery will show about 27 vdc and the lower battery will show 13.5 vdc. The alternator will show the same.
