RE: Here Course, a lot of people miss the point that the fiber "cake" left after the oil extraction makes a great livestock base feedstock. Lower in fat and higher in protein (on a per lb basis) than the original grain crop. Same for certain human foods, such a cereals.

RE: Re: RE: Insurance M35 A2 State farm, $150/yr with collision and comprehensive based on a vehicle value of $6000. Watch some of the on line sites with low rates, they require a lockable garage (with photos to prove it) to get insurance from them.

Not to mention the fact that the OEM Deuce heater pretty much sucks! Depends on how authentic you want to look vs how comfortable you want to be!

I bought a new set of -20 and -34 manuals from the Parramore Press (they advertise in MV magazine) fo the M123/M125 series trucks for $15 each plus about $15 shipping. They are very detailed and very well written and also give OEM manufacturer, ordnance part numbers part numbers and "model...

Sorry, I forgot to include the crane capacity data plate in my previous post. Enjoy trying to read the fine print at the bottom!

Re: RE: WANTED - M816 Snatch Block AKA Tackle Block/Sheave A I disagree. The -10 TM is not real clear on this point. Page 1-15 of the 14 June 1985 edition of the TM states "The vehicle crane is used for lifting operations of up to 20,000 pounds", which would lead one to believe the CRANE...

RE: Re: RE: Re: Batteries Go to the Interstate battery web site and do a search for local dealers. Call as many as are in reasonable driving distance and ask for a price for a U6TL. I was quoted prices from $100 to $160 each. I've read other posts where you can sometimes pick up new blems for...

Re: RE: Sandblast Cabinet Question I use a wire brush wheel on my angle grinder. DON'T use the cheap HF ones, they only last for about 10 minutes and all the wire bristles are either worn down or broke off. I use a heavy duty knotted brush wheel I bought at a local industrial supply shop. It...

Re: RE: WANTED - M816 Snatch Block AKA Tackle Block/Sheave A Actually, with either the boom supports or boom jacks in use the crane winch is rated at 20,000 lbs with three part line.

RE: WANTED - M816 Snatch Block AKA Tackle Block/Sheave Assem Looks like both snatch blocks are spoken for, but I put my name on the wait list anyhow!

I can use a crane snatch block if it is the single pulley 3 line type with the dead end of the cable attached to the block as shown in the picture. I can also use a set of the crane operators information plates on the control platform (boom in/out etc) if you have a legible set.

I need a M816 snatch block, in military terms sometimes known as a tackle block or sheave assembly. In any event, it is the tackle block hanging off the end of the M816 wrecker crane. I need the common single pulley type with the attachment point for the cable end to make up the standard 3 wire...

Problem most likely solved. Get the correct test strip and try again! ABSOLUTELY INCORRECT!!!! pH is a measurement of how many hydrogen ions are in a solution. It ranges from 0-14. Acids have a pH less than 7; while bases have a pH more than 7, and neutral substances, like water, have a pH...

A little known fact is that not all brands of test strips work with all brands of coolants! A test strip will give invalid results if it is not the proper test strip for the coolant you are using. Go back to the Fleetcharge site and see what strips they recommend for their product.

Not sure which "big truck" you are talking about, but if it is my M125 wrecker, here is a link to it: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=19684

Re: RE: Re: RE: HEMMTT Whells on a M123/M125 10 ton truck I that the M1074/M1075 rim? If so, I would be interested. Lee

RE: Re: RE: Rear Hub flip M123/M125 10 ton truck I haven't seen that done on a 5 ton, so I don't know how it would work. It doesn't really work well on a Deuce without flipping the hubs since it makes practically no difference in the track due to the deep dish rim (the M123/M125 also have deep...

Re: RE: Rear Hub flip M123/M125 10 ton truck I have both! But I'd need to come up with a plan for a tire change while on the road, though!

Re: RE: HEMMTT Whells on a M123/M125 10 ton truck What are PLS rims? IIRC the bolt pattern is the same as given in the M123/M125 TM, but they didn't give a pilot hole diameter. A rough tape measure job on my front hubs puts my pilot hole at about 10-3/4". That might work, to the best of my...

Has anyone ever done or does anyone know if it is possible to flip the rear hubs on a10 ton M123/M125 series truck to run super singles on the rear as is commonly done on a Deuce rear axle? I have looked at the -20 and -34 manuals but they do not go into a lot of detail. Thanks, Lee
