    Return Line Fittings

    DieselBob - thanks I think those are the ones I'm going to go w/. I think I'll also use some inserts in some new nylon tubing :) Any one have a reason not to? After getting the correct terms from Doghead I'm embarrassed by how many threads there already are :oops: What ever happened to the...

    M796 & M796A1, What's the difference?

    I know that the landing gear is diff, but what's the deal w/ the hubs? Are they just a bit diff in their pieces and assembly, and still use the same wheels. Or are they really diff, take diff wheels, etc?

    Barstow, CA Loadout

    I can sometimes (when I'm here) help w/ load-outs as well. Barstow is not that far away from here. Trailers and such preferred, rather not have to mess w/ trucks. ;)

    Wood gas

    That's the same as a gasifier, I know of some people in Burkley that have been doing that for years. They do classes in many places around the world. If you're interested I'll do some digging and find their address/site.

    Mounting 11x20's

    I watched that vid, seemed like that ring was more of an "O" than a "C", is that right, or just how it looked? I also thought that I should be starting from the non-notched end of the ring. Will try the bucket. I was trying to use another deuce rim to stack it on, too high, it won't let you...
