just checking whether you really read everyone's posts, or just click the "like" button ... lol

it might've had pressure if you had parked that tire in the sun :p

you might want to carry a hammer or billyclub in the cab for when you do your walkaround .. those who are not tone deaf can hear different pitches of notes being played when the air pressure isn't the same among them ;) they don't look flat if their circumference winds up the same as the tire...

hey we can't forget to pay attention to the oh-oh ring (and groove) on top of those fuel filter cans (retaining bolt) .. That spot up there collects a lot of environmental crud and the o-ring can get deformed during tightening enough to suck air .. another issue i've run in to is the fuel tank...

it sure does ! .. now that he has patterns and pratice and patience, he should make more of them and sell to us here !

you have done an incredible job on this model ! :love: where did you find pictures of the dash of a M44-series deuce gasser as reference? i don't recall any of them having a tachometer or that many tags, but i suppose it's possible it happened at some point in their life .. although 5T and...

i have a commercial engine i took out of an M818 and it doesn't have a fitting in this location but it does have a threaded plug in that spot .. It's right below the accessory drive and it dumps into the top of the secondary (lower) accessory drive Is the fitting seen used as a place to dump...

since i am in the process of reconverting a militarized NTC290 i took out of an M818 to put back into a commercial truck application , i have run into several little issues getting the "new" engine to receive all the commercial truck's additional fuel hoses, air lines, and oil lines that the...

yes, the operator(s) wanted it to look cool !! :D ... and better visibility in tight spots for sure , although the small rectangular mirrors on the early deuce A1's & A2's were better than round lollipops , but yes we operators definitely preferred the west-coasters (except when the...

1: gringeltaube is correct and great to add the pictures depicting the differences .. Both my M49C's have the two-arm mirror bracket on driver side .. Both have a single-arm lollipop passenger side however one of those has a 2nd arm added later which bolts to the fender .. The arm's flattened...

wow , that recent video is WAY better than the cummins technician training film i saw on there some years ago ! nice find !

perfect for that.. my M109a3 shop van's roof makes a great platform to trim my roadway limbs , beats trying to work in a small area such as a loader bucket ! But do it on a dry day, don't ask me how i know :3dAngus:

i am at a loss of ideas .. it ran strong for me as well until i started having trouble with it sucking air after it sat around a lot during its last years here .. i can only think "injector screens" however my only experience i've had with a clogged screen was one of my M818's and the errant...

the inspection date area on the nomenclature tag is often blank .. i would bet your entry is a rebuild date .. as HDN mentioned, the USA registration number (VIN) indicates it's a 1971 , and the tag also indicates the initial 4-year build contract for the manufacturer, which was awarded in...

pawet , i only have one question ... can i drive it? :D ........... after you, of course !

i have a crap-ton of green and red :ROFLMAO: .. only the best from both worlds (y)

oh, but that open-sideboard style is called a "stock trailer" .. but still can be used for horses and we can still rag on him ! :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: i was a sucker for a horse lady ,, once ... she had up to a dozen at any time ... ugggggg ! it was only when i started showing up with...

I took advantage of that fact several years ago due to 120v present at the utility receptacle.. Had an evening field task requiring intermittent hole drilling with 15-minute pauses in between .. Yes the drill motor ran slower due to genny not even reaching 50cy output at an idle , but the slow...

i got tired of re-patching that pesky elbow, so last year when i had no time and no help a local heavy shop replaced everything behind the turbo on my commercial FLD120 .. bill was around $1200 .. the cost of parts was 3x more than the labor .. ouch .. at least the new donaldson muffler...

don't know of any cucv-type pumpers, but the local FD had an OEM military setup on a dodge M37-type.. It had a 300g pod of same design as the 600g fuel pods seen on 1950's-90's deuces and 5-tons .. i have mentioned it on SS before and still haven't come cross pics i took of it 40-50 years ago
