If you are not too concerned about maintaining military purity, there are civillian "bullet connectors" which will work. They come in two sizes so take one of your military connectors to the auto parts store to check the fit.

EGT IS a concern even in non-turbo engines. Not necessarily true, highest egt may occur at higher rpms also EXTREMELY FALSE! High EGT is dangerous at any RPM! WRONG AGAIN! Excess fuel is the major cause of high EGT! Take a look at this article from Banks Engineering, it gives a lot of...

One other special tool you WILL want to get is a Budd Wheel Nut Combo Socket, unless your 3/4" or 1" socket sets include both a 1-1/2" hex and a 13/16" square sockets. I think I still have a few around, PM me if interested. My classified ad for these got lost when the site was upgraded & I...

Did M109s come with a battery disconnect standard or was that added on?

I can't tell from the picture if you need the male or the female connector but here is a link to both at OD Iron. Male, $0.95 each: OD Iron LLC Military Vehicle Parts and Accessories Female, $1.00 each: OD Iron LLC Military Vehicle Parts and Accessories

CARC is designed to absorb agents that land on it. It acts like a sponge and will suck up your touch up paint, meaning it takes a lot of touch up paint to cover old CARC. I had my best results by sanding down the CARC to a smooth surface and then repainting. I used Rustoleum spray camo paint...

Any tire dealer should be able to order a 9:00-20 NDCC (Non Directional Cross Country, sometimes called NDT, Non Directional Tread - The "Zipper" tires on your truck) tire for you. If you can't find used tires anyplace, find a tire dealer who also does large truck tires, order the tire there and...

The lockout hubs ship and install as an assembly. The only "loose" parts are the bolts and gaskets. You might want to consider replacing the gaskets when you install the hubs. This is about the easiest thing you can do on a Deuce. Takes from 5 to 15 minutes per side depending on your mechanical...

Same "TORQUE MULTIPLIER LUG WRENCH" from same supplier but cheaper off Ebay at his own website Welcome To LugWrench.Biz

I have a M-125 ten ton cargo truck which was refitted with a M816 wrecker body. Does that make it a ten ton wrecker? Both the truck chassis and the wrecker crane are rated for 10 tons.

It is a bit screwy trying to handle my email & Steel Soldiers PMs from the computer at the library. I think I have responed to everyone (a few I might have answered twice). If I've missed anyone, please let me know. -- Lee

Still looking for the member in Canada who paid for two sockets to be delivered to a US relative - I lost your mail to address, please PM me with the correct mailing address.

To those of you who sent me money and are looking for sockets - I spent most of last week in the hospital and then my computer died, so I am way behind. Sockets already paid for should be shipped soon. To the member in Canada who paid for two sockets to be delivered to a US relative - I lost...

The whole point of my posting was that IF the truck and trailer are both rated for the load and are working properly, you CAN stop safely although probably not as quickly as in an empty pickup truck by itself. That is where driver skill comes into play - making sure you driving carefully and...

Yes, problems with a 1/2" impact using the glad hand connector, but that was using the GI air hose which I believe is only 1/4" diameter. Just too much total air pressure loss with that set-up. A 3/8" air hose would have worked a great deal better. I've stepped up to a 3/4" impact so I'll need...

While both the firewall air port and the glad hand connector work, both have capacity issues (as Kenny alluded to when he mentioned the portable air tank and 1/2" connections). The firewall port is of small diameter and the glad hand connector has lots of restriction due to the length of pipe...

I still have a few of these sockets left, the price is $19.00 each delivered. I don't know what happened to my classified ad, it seems to have disappeared again. I guess I'll have type up a new one for the third time.
