I've been hanging a reusable water pig in my tank with good results.

Drained and changed the Transmission and Transfer Case Oil with GL1 - 90W. Thanks to TechnoWeenie for solving the drain plug wrench dilemma, found that the 9/16 inch plug wrench is the best fit. No big chunks came out of either housing, nor was there a lot of metal on the plugs. The oil on...

Looks great, what was the press out pressure?

Not so much worried about the yellow metal issue. From one SS post I heard GL-4 had half the sulfur content as GL-5 and from another that the newer GL-4 and 5 were yellow metal compatible. The GL-4 I topped off the Trans with did not smell of sulfur. There was something else about mixing...

Found this data sheet at O'Reilly's, but more specifically under Applications. " O’Reilly GL-1 Gear Oil is designed for use in manual transmissions and transfer cases in on highway trucks and off-highway equipment, which require an API GL-1 gear lubricant. It may also find use in industrial...

Solved one problem, created another. But first solved my hesitation on acceleration and hard start by replacing the spin on kit I cobbled together with the original canister rig. Was experiencing a loss of power in acceleration, thought it might be a clogged filter giving me the opportunity to...

Where? Everything I found was metric,the biggest 10mm

Topped off the Differentials, the fitting appears to be a half inch square socket. Spent a day looking for an SAE square head wrench key set, could only find metric. Then I realized my half inch ratchet tool has a square head, could it be that simple?...YUP! The outer diffs were down about a...

Took some Shine Juice to the old girl today, dang missed front end Friday by one day. This is a boiled linseed derivative produced by Vice Grip Garage.

$5000, in Massachusetts with Hagerty. Essentially it's what I bought it for. In fact they automatically renewed my policy last week, $205. It's not my daily driver, I store it in a tent and I've limited myself to 2500 miles/year

Page can't be found...pretty pictures of Dogs though.

Used an Engine hoist to hang the tailgate...twice!, yah I put it on backwards the first try, still worked though. Used 5/8 X 4.5 inch Hitch Pins from the hardware store. Still have to do some work to the tailgate itself and the drivers side bed mount which is buggered like a pretzel. My welding...

Burned all but one of the pins out of the hinges on the tailgate of my M813 until I ran out of gas. Only buggered one of the hinges, hey it was only my second time with a torch. One of the previous owners used the rig as a salt truck and pretty much never washed it. When I bought her the...

Replaced the windshields on my M813. Both had delaminated, one had a large chunk taken out right where the inspection sticker would have gone, pretty sure the inspectors would have caught that one... Removed scale with a wire brush. They came apart rather easy, that is once I figured out that...

How about the primer pump? Just rebuilt mine, before rebuild the piston just moved freely in the tube, after cleaning and new O-rings there's a noticeable vacuum in the tube.

So I don't have to worry about supporting the full weight of the rig?
