What is a "Spicer Browinie Box" and how does it add another od ratio?

As stated, I'm running a GPS indicated 55 MPH at 2300 RPM. We have a lot of hills out here, not sure of the grade (I don't have an inclinometer - yet), but they are steeper than anything on the Interstates. Running empty, as I most always do, on US-10, the local rural highway, I can maintain any...

Whip? As in whip me, beat me, make me write bad checks?

Gun ring (look closely, its the old end-of a-55-gallon-drum conversion). Its a beech for the gunner with the regular stack belching out soot right into your face!

Re: RE: my junk After you enter the info for your first picture, hit "Preview", do NOT hit "Enter". The preview will display your text and the first picture, and there will be another blank "Add an Attachment" box to enter your second picture. Repeat cycle (add picture, preview, add next...

AMEN to that quote! A whole lot of us would be screwed without SS here to help us. Thanks and a whole bunch of kudos to Chris for making this site happen!

FWIW, I just bought a new True Temper axe for $21.99 from my local Do It Best hardware store. Varnished Hickory handle, 3-1/2 lb head, and fits nicely in the tool rack. Not clearly marked as to where it is made, but the head is stamped "US06". If you don't have a local Do It Best store you can...

Me too, but I got lucky on the truck, it is a keeper. I was fortunate enough to find a base mechanic who checked out the truck for me after I bought it and before my EUC was approved, the "no start" condition was a loose dogbone and one bad battery. He met me when I picked it up and jump...

I'm impressed with the way your TLB lifted the bed off. Thats a lot of weight and a rough angle. What is it, an older Case?

Where/what vehicle did the parts come from?

Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Ok... Back To 11X20 Wheels... Sounds pretty decent for a custom wheel. Where are you on a dished wheel for those of us who want the "traditional" look? The G20 tires - Do they have a tread pattern similar to the Michelin XZL?

RE: Re: RE: Ok... Back To 11X20 Wheels... OD Iron - We are still looking for pricing on you wheels - even a rough guesstimate? Gerhard - Your thoughts on wheel bearing loading with these wheels - both dish in and dish out?

Armyman - Here is HookAChain's photo, not a great pic though.

Most any auto parts store can order it for you, it is just a 90 degree exhaust elbow, 4" OD x 4" ID.

I didn't know Scarlett O'Hara had a Deuce. I don't remember seeing one in the movie either!

Oversons are a superior product durability wise, but if I were to purchase a set I'd go with Selectros on the basis of appearance. The Oversons just stick out too far. The Selectros seem to be plenty strong for most uses, I can't recall anyone saying the ever broke a Selectro. For serious off...

True, but not in the context of my answer. Disc brakes essentially cycle almost no fluid during a braking cycle. There are usually no retraction springs in a disc brake system, the pads are basically in contact with the rotor at all times. When a disc brake is applied, there is very little fluid...

DOT 3 is hygroscopic, it absorbs water from the air. As you cycle the brakes, brake fluid is pumped in and out of the master cylinder reservoir (particularly with drum brakes). As the brake fluid within the reservoir fluctuates, air is pumped in and out of the reservoir to compensate for the...

When I was in the ARNG (early 70's) I don't recall any stenciling on the tailgate of M35s. Our trucks were OD with white lettering (US Army & registration #) on the hood, white stars on the doors, major unit designation (for example, 26 S&T) on the right front bumper and left rear bumperette...

You are talking about vehicles from two different eras. The Deuce technology dates from the 50's and 60's when pollution was not a concern and engines had open draft tubes spewing blowby out into the air. The M800 series was made in the 70's and 80's and had to meet EPA air quality standards...
