    Part # and special instructions?

    One headlight from my Deuce says Wagner, 24 volt, 4863 for a number. Nobody around here can seem to find the # listed or cross reference it. Any help out there? Also, any special considerations when putting on an artic grill cover on a truck w/w? Thanks

    M45

    Try condenser I had an MGB that started and ran fine until the temp guage got to 145, then it stumbled a little and then finally died. After sitting long enough for the temp to start dropping(5-8 min) it would start and run fine. Tried everything and it turned out to be a bad condenser. Must...

    Winter Blend B20

    Is there such a fuel or because of the oil in it can it not be winter blended for anti-gel properties?

    What do you think??

    Thanks for the info. I PM'd M215 to get some input on these rigs.

    What do you think??

    Found this ad today. 1952 GMC M215 Military Dump Truck, US Army. Started life in Oklahoma and was driven to MA in the late 1970's and stored inside since. Low miles for a 53 year old truck. This truck is rust free and in orig. paint and numbering from the Army, It even has the orig. canvas...

    What year is it!!!

    I'm not totally sure of this but I believe on the frame behind the drivers side front tire there should be a year of manuf. date. Probably rusty so you will have to clean it off. I'm sure someone that really knows where to look will post a reply soon. Also, I think Deuce would be proper spelling.

    "2 1/2 Ton Ammo Loader"

    Yes, I believe that one can use it along with the chainfall to hoist one end of a vehicle that weighs up to the limit of the chainfall. One spec I read is 2500 lbs.. Someone else told me 2 1/2 tons. Don't really know.

    Sound/Heat insulation?

    Soundproofing etc. I'm wondering if you are aware of or would be interested in knowing that material for what you are doing is available at good full service marine supply stores. It is rugged and made for the harsh salt water environment.

    "2 1/2 Ton Ammo Loader"

    If you go to the Technical Bulletin section and open TB9-4910-492-30 which is the installation instructions for the loader it will give you an idea of what you have to go through. I have no idea what it weighs though, so one might need another chainfall and a big tree to get the damn thing in...

    "2 1/2 Ton Ammo Loader"

    I'll keep you posted as soon as I know more. The fella with the two near me is away for a few days but I'll talk to him when he gets back. The picture I used was from an ad in the last one or two MV mags. That one was $450.00 OBO.

    "2 1/2 Ton Ammo Loader"

    Hey thanks. Now I better understand how the device works and attaches. I have located two about 3 hours away and will be taking a look soon. One is complete kit still in the crate and the other is assembled and used but is missing the hardware to attach it.

    Air connector inside the cab

    I put a mini regulator and then a quick disconnect fitting on a glad hand to hook up to the emergency air at the rear of the truck. Keep the regulator at 50 PSI, makes it real easy to hit all the tires to make sure they are all up to pressure.

    "2 1/2 Ton Ammo Loader"

    Yes, I am talking about the frame and rail device with a chainfall on it rated for 1 1/2 ton. Rail extends 5 feet beyond cargo area. Finally got picture in!

    "2 1/2 Ton Ammo Loader"

    I have seen these advertised for sale and seems as though it would be a nice device when loading heavy items when no tractor etc. available. It seems as though the membership of this Forum have tried about every item ever made for these rigs but I've never seen mention of an ammo loader. Any...
