    Hydramatic oil cooler question

    G749 trans cooler Our Prairie M135 Goat team did a cooler R&R twice this year because that nut needs to be torqued correctly or....a guy will need to do it twice. Be careful and be sure to get it right the first time. I'm still on the learning curve so really appreciate the vid that you dropped...

    Steering Wheel I'm really pulling for you to get that beast rolling so we can see what kind of top end speed you'll get out of it. Aggressive looking truck! We're going to need to keep looking for a better steering wheel or learn how to fix these ones up, I got nuttin'. Maybe a wrap of...

    M925A2 snow plow install

    That is some creative metal work, nice job! Have you had any problems with the winch cable binding up, building a birdsnest, pinching the wire? It won't snow until you take the plow off or sell it. We hope it's temporary but we're at about 10" of snow in total so the picture is from better...

    Hood latch failure.

    A long while ago someone snuck into the equipment yard where I worked and pulled the oil pan plugs on a half dozen vehicles and vandalized a bunch of stuff. In the morning darkness, the guys that lifted the hoods, pulled dipsticks, checked tires, looked under their trucks etc......kept their...

    G749 Starter and Generator questions-input needed

    How much oil is my starter supposed to hold? What kind of oil is it and if I go buy some, do I find it next to the ....starter fluid?rofl Ether way, that big o ring is missing on my starters too so we need a part number alternative. I thought it didn't matter on the asphalt queens but it would...

    Metal Magnets's M211 teardown and future rebuild.

    That's just beautiful Scotty. If the prairies don't start producing snow again I might need to move. Great video, the sound is good so that truck sounds sharp. Seeing the troubleshooting with the parts swap makes the work look easy. :beer: Thanks for following up with the pics,,,,,"that" ....is...

    Metal Magnets's M211 teardown and future rebuild.

    The view man.....the view. What snow? I don't see any snow! The last pic we got from you,,,,,,things looked like this. We haven't had any big snowfalls for a while so it's good seeing the joy you guys are going through. My good friend out of Campbellton said they would keep the shovels...

    Hmmm..do you like low flying aircraft?....then here ya go!

    Stumbled over this link on a fb Cold War Aircraft site and had to share it. Took me an hour to read the great stories tied to the low flying pictures. Covers a lot of aircraft and even has an Edmonton link with a homegrown boy who loved to push the envelope. "Sgt. Scratch was born in...

    M925A2 snow plow install

    I woke up thinking about birdsnest in the spool of cable around the winch. Why not make a cable up just long enough to do the job. Instead of tugging on 50' of cable wrapped around the drum, driving the 'pulling' cable through the wind, causing the birdsnest........just use a short cable. Ok...

    What is the Most Durable Paint?

    You should have a dozen replies by now,,,,,, everyone's got a special paint. I'm only familiar with this product because I grew up with the Endura family and first used their paint around 1969. I can't say it's the 'most durable' without seeing all the other 'best' paints out there so lets...

    Got my axles and then some

    They all look the same after a while. I knew you'd come through! That looked like the truck I saw in El Cajon but the bumper markings are different. Keep this thread open now with new pictures of the build. Really looking forward to seeing you get on the road. Let's hope your spare parts...

    Hmmm..do you like low flying aircraft?....then here ya go!

    I had to follow this up because I named my kid after guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan who helped kick off the campaign back in the 80's. Stevie Ray's helicopter crashed on August 27th 1990 and my son was born in early October. Momma wanted to come up with a name for the baby but after 5 days of...

    Hmmm..do you like low flying aircraft?....then here ya go!

    Not sure how I missed this one from 2010, thought I read the entire net..doesn't end how you think it would. Doing some "Low Pass" hunts in alphabetical order of hosting countries, found this sassy AB 212 helicopter pass from Austria. Crank up the volume and wake up the family...

    Jeep on No hijacking considered Mr. DB Cooper.......all it did was warm me up a bit. Kinda reminded me of the old jeep picture my dad had taken with his buddy at some logging camp around Williams lake. Just drop some pictures of that beautiful valley you're living in before they log the entire...

    G749 Starter and Generator questions-input needed

    Starter colors Yes! We'd need some of the older boys to peel back the years to see if they remember what color the original starters were. There may have been inconsistencies too with different plants manufacturing similar parts, they may not have had a paint spec to follow. I have both black...
