    Deuce-Adapted Cessna Fuel Shutoff Lock

    As patracy said, a hidden electrical cut-off switch is a MUST. Search for "Deuce Security," "securing the deuce," "deuce power switch," etc... to find many good threads about this. Another tip: Don't use the site search. Go to google.com, and type in this: "search query...

    Parking Brake VANISHED

    You may want to see if you can just get a complete assembly off of a parts truck from somebody here on the site, or the like.

    Deuce-Adapted Cessna Fuel Shutoff Lock

    Most people only leave the fuel shutoff locked in the out position when they have to leave their truck parked in gear... as RLWM said, the shutoff can get stuck, but if you feel that it's necessary for your truck's safety, just be aware that it can get stuck in case it does, so you don't freak...

    deuce at lumber co.

    Several exterior shots (front, rear, both sides), good clear pictures of the dataplates in the cab that have the S/N and model # etc (use the "Macro" function on your camera for better close-up pictures), a few pictures of the cab, and a good picture or two of the 5th wheel setup. Just to...

    2011 GA Rally Buy/Sell/Trade Thread

    Those would be Michelin XL 11.00x20s (as opposed to Firestone T831s, Goodyear G177s, or NDT/NDCCs, all of which are common tires in the 11.00x20 size). I'm shopping for some NDCC pattern (commonly but incorrectly referred to as "NDTs") 11.00x20s, which is why I was asking. Thanks for the...

    2011 GA Rally Buy/Sell/Trade Thread

    I'm looking for 11.00x20 NDT/NDCC-type tires (basically: not the more modern tires). Preferably 4 of them.

    The Unicorn; Or M37 broken long side axle shafts

    You don't have to work too hard with the 230 to do in an axle shaft, either... especially if you do the mods to allow you to have Low Range without engaging the front axle.

    I saw that while browsing last night, too. Neat looking jeep.

    What is this frame bracket for?

    Which makes sense, since your truck (I'm assuming it is the 109 in your signature) is a 1966.

    Definition of "multi-fuel"

    This should explain to the guy what the patented MAN "Multifuel" design is. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/332822-post1.html While any engine can be run on multiple fuels, only the LDTs and LDSs are honest-to-god MAN "Multifuel" designs (produced under license by Hercules, White, etc...).

    How much water is ok?

    Water also doesn't compress, which is bad news in a piston-injector pump that is attempting to compress and pressurize a liquid up to 1,400 psi. EDIT: This statement probably isn't 100% correct. Please feel free to correct me.

    Flare and Repair Brake Line?

    You can take your broken brake line off and take it to a place like Royal Brass and Hose that make custom lines and hoses and have them make one for you. I had to do that with one of mine, and they did an excellent job. They also made all-new brake hoses for me, too.

    Coming Attraction - project #6 M43 build

    If you're just using the torch to heat up the bolts, I'd highly recommend just using a MIG welder or the like to weld a bolt or a nut onto each screw so you can get a wrench on them and really crank down on them. There's about a 75% chance you'll have to do that anyways... Besides, the heat from...

    I have to blip the throttle just once while cranking to get mine to catch well.
