Harbor Freight carries one that is relatively inexpensive and works good…I use it quite a bit.

Congratulations! Heck of a nice score for only $2K! Nice Steiger in the vid, too….don’t suppose it was part of the purchase….:ROFLMAO:

In 1986 at Camp Fuji, Japan, I was assigned to a working party one day with other members of my tank platoon. Top (Master Sergeant for the Company) told us to repaint & re-stencil the Paint/HazMat Locker, which was a small conex box. Repaint accomplished, we broke out the stencils to find that...

Yes because you work for a living… :)(y)

Well done sir.

What are your IR gun temps on the coolant hoses running to/from heat exchanger? Just trying to verify coolant flow….

Is your fan clutch engaging to let fan come on?

My guess would be expansion/contraction values of gasket material vs bolts/nuts vs radiator parts…but my guesses are usually way off.

Other options include (and are more likely what I used, especially a combination of these): Offset Boxed End Wrench Angle Wrench (link goes to Jumbo sizes, don’t know why they don’t carry the smaller sizes anymore) Flare Nut Wrench S-Shaped Boxed End Wrench I use these different shaped...

It’s been many years, but I believe that I removed the fender and exhaust as well as air filter and some other parts to be able to access it for removal & cleaning….I think I broke it loose from brass elbow with an open-end wrench of some sort (I have several different lengths for each size, a...

How old are your batteries, and what condition are they in? You may show some power at the dash, but your batteries may be low enough to not be able to retract the FSOV (Fuel Shut Off Valve) on driver’s side of engine. Aged batteries can cause the stock alternator to fry itself trying to keep...

Plus heat & pressure together usually result in condensation. Make sure that the air compressor output hose goes to your wet tank first, then off to your air dryer…..could be that your air dryer is so in need of rebuilding that excess moisture is carried in the air storage system. I’ve gotten...

When does the air-ride rear suspension go in?

At KSL.com go to the Classifieds section, it’s pretty good.

That’s a standard Budd pattern for wheels, how about some steel 24.5” wheels and 11R24.5 tires? Might even find some gently-used tires nearby since it’s only used on your property. Or 11R22.5 on rears and a wide-based 22.5” tire/wheel on the front, like a 365 or 385? Replacements are widely...

The brake hoses would be worth replacing as well, since you’ve put this much time, effort, and money into getting this right. Several years ago I went to a local (to Las Vegas) Parker Hydraulics shop and they made me some reinforced braided stainless steel brake lines that had an immediate...

When I had this happen, it was the relief port in the master cylinder; it was slightly plugged and caused the brakes to drag. I used a Tip Cleaner kit for cutting torches to clear it when I rebuilt it, which fixed my problem. Hope yours is as simple of a fix.

Awesome! I was a USMC tanker on M60A1 RISE-Passive, so I find these experiences with M48A5s very informative! Thanks for posting/sharing
