BUMP!!! Hey Ray, hows the M146 project coming? I hear you have been painting and installing new landing gear; where are the pictures? We all want to see and hear about your progress!!![thumbzup]

My M818 has a pipe plug on the muffler to drain out the water. It looks like it would take 10 or 15 gallons of water to get into the exhaust port. If you get enough water in the exhaust, you can blow a head gasket. I saw a Freightliner with a Cummins pull started that hadn't run in a while...

You still got those goofy stickers on there?

Looks good Ray. Keep the pictures coming!

:ditto: Just remember, bigger holes let the mud and other garbage in easier too. If you are going to play in the mud, pull the drums and clean everything up when you are finished. I learned that lesson 30 years ago in my mud truck days. It doesn't take long for the mud to chew brake shoes and...

Brake cleaner. If you use a rag, make sure it's not colored. The brake cleaner will wash the color out of a shop rag and onto whatever you are wiping.

I bought Betts mud flap hangers for my M818. The local distributor is Weldon truck parts The frame mount K750 fits some existing frame holes and installation is easy. The B86 kit is the mud flap hanger buy the K750 frame mount. You can use the frame mounts that come with the kit, but you...

Are you going to have room for the quarter fenders to protect the fuel tanks? It looks kind of tight.

Looking good Ray. Is the fellow that did the conversion going to plumb the air and fuel for you? It looks like he did a really nice job on everything. I'm sure the TM for the M275 will have a diagram for the air system; the fuel should be straight forward. Somebody already mentioned mud...

I can't see it.

About 50 MPH; depends on how far I have to go. 55 MPH (more or less) is top speed for the Deuce and 53 MPH for the M818. Usually I'm not in a big hurry.

I've never seen more than about 140 on the center chunks of my Deuce or 5 ton after a long interstate run.

My M818 has air powered windshield wipers. I thought my driver side windshield wiper was broken. It turns out the little button by the exhaust pipe that parks the blade was stuck in. I held the park button in on the passenger side and the pressure built up enough to pop the park button out on...

I'll either already be in GA, or be driving up Wednesday.

:ditto: Mine ride around in the glove compartment! [thumbzup]

You can jump to one battery at a time. Make sure you don't try to jump both batteries in series. If you are going to jump one battery at a time; don't hook the ground of the jumper cables to the M35A3 chassis. Hook the jumper cables to the battery terminals only. 24V system to 12V system is...
