Well i finally got the doors off. I ended up having to drill out and tap all new holes and use new hardware. I hung the pass. Door and all was good. Then after tapping the driver side i noticed water coming from behind the dash after the rain. Basically i ended up pulling the dash off and...

im no expert brother, but i would definitely say that ur trailer was painted with the bad stuff. I have an m105 trailer mfg date of 92 and it has carc as well. I would also say that a paper mask is in no way sufficient if you were to be doing any type of removal. I also have to think that you...

absolutely! one thing that scares the crud outta me is cancer! i put my swat gas mask on and went at it...i even used it while i was blasting parts in a blast cabinet...my buddy was laughing at me and calling me a moron. i told him he wouldnt be laughing when he woke up with a cancerous nipple...

i looked it up and it didnt say exactly but my standard cbrn mask should filter the stuff. im figuring if itll filter gas chemical agents itll take care of larger carc particulate....am i right?

actually, i was...im l.e.o. i was wearing a full face msa cbrn mask with new filter and i showered regularly...as opposed to my usual once a month whether i need it or not

ooooooh where to start...ok...here goes. (deep breath). I used a braided stainless cup brush on a grinder to remove (cough) the old carc and rust (cough, cough) around the entire windshield frame(cough). I then primed it with duplicolor od green self etching primer. I installed new old stock...

i certainly will...im trying not to get too many projects going on this truck. i want to finish everything in a timely manner

very good info...im in the process of changing all of my fluids and cleaning up the engine compartment. thank you

i definitely like the improvised security device on the door bro. mine got new windshields, wipers, new doors, an oil change, new hood hinges, and new mirrors. Im sandblasting and painting next weekend. cant wait

im probably one of the least qualified to speak on this but i looked for several years prior to finally pulling the trigger on my baby girl. I shy'ed away from gl because i had several people tell me its a big gamble to buy because u just never know what you're getting. I happened to stumble...

thank you guys....ill be changing my earl tomorrow...

thx wil....i have a torque wrench...what should they be torqued at plz?

ok ss vets! ill be doing my first oil change in a few days. :grin: im going to replace the oil first, then the coolant. Can one of you experienced gentlemen please point me to a previous thread or throw your directions my way? I have searched on google and im also armed with the tm's. I...

I wouldnt mind trying the roll on stuff. I just hear so many horror stories of it peeling off after a few months and being a nightmare to fix. Im going to test it before doing the inside of my bed and cab

I have no peesonsl experience with the stuff but i will suggest al's liner. Ive seen tge result and i cant see any difference in it and the pro stuff. It is a bit more pricey though

I will definitely try the dremel method . Thats a gr8 idwa. I broke out a 20 volt impact driver. Ill be picking up pb blaster tomorrow and soaking everything. I will b certain to post pics of the process and post it.

I was hoping to get these out without damaging the threading on the cab. I dont really care about the rest. I just didnt want to booger up the threads on the truck. Im probably asking for too much with this though.

Feel free to direct me on any ways to remove rounded out bolts from door hinges if u know. I figure the old hot rodders trick for restoring (Pb blaster and a hand torch) should do the trick. I guess ill be drilling out the stripped bolts and removing them by the stud. Thx and god bless.

So today is the first full day of turning wrenches on my baby. I picked up two great replacement doors to replace the rusted ones already on the truck. I also picked up two new windshields and numerous other parts. All told, i spent around 800 for a lot of n.o.s factory parts to spiff up the...

ive downloaded them all and have already read through the operators manuals. I have to say that these have already taught me a lot. Thanks for the tm's guys. I did figure out that this is an ldt-465d motor refurbed in 1985. thx
