    Fuel Pump Pickup problem

    Order a new pump from ebay-$50- Keep your old pump as spare parts. You can clean the old hanger assembly up with muriatic acid or have it bead blasted. New ones can be had but they are quite pricey.

    Paint Use?

    If that 9/68 is the manufacture date I would be surprised if it is any good.

    Strange electrical issue

    That is an alternator. Data plate says generator because it is technically a power generating unit.

    Strange electrical issue

    If you only have 21 volts supplied to the gen/alt, you will only get 21 volts out. Replace the bad battery and check it over again.

    Windshield frame?

    I actually found a picture of it sitting in the same spot where I found it on here, but obviously about 20 years ago or so. It was beautiful.

    Found metal chips in oil, still runs great

    Found metal chips in oil, still runs great

    More than likely one of the oil lines or the booster pump gasket.

    Got offered a MEP-007A...for free...should I take it ? What are they used for?

    Not even, just leave it hooked to the wrecker and drive it over to where you want. Just take it easy. Lower the boom to a safe level and extend it far enough that it doesn't swing and hit the truck. Of course how you do it is entirely up to you. Certainly safer your way, just more work. How far...

    Got offered a MEP-007A...for free...should I take it ? What are they used for?

    Do you have access to an M936 or 816? Could you just pick it up and drive away? That is the way I move these kinds of things around here.

    Could I use this kit to recover 5 tons?

    You could, but I wouldn't. The Army got rid of all of them because they were breaking while towing. Use everything else, but get a steel towbar.

    Halfshaft length issue

    You have the shaft partially compressed. You have to either grab the stub shaft and pull it through the hub from the outside, or try pushing it through from behind. Maybe tap with a rubber mallet but be careful not to damage the boot! You may remove it and greases the splines well, then re...

    Fuel Supply Pump GPM? (Pump Located on IP)

    He is looking for flow rate though, not pressures.

    Survival 109 build

    Wasn't there a long running thread on pre oiling systems and pumps for them? And wasn't the need for them negated almost completely with the advent of spin on oil filter conversions?

    Purchased Air Raid Siren

    Wire it to the motion sensor that turns on a security light, that way the rabbits set it off at night. Would be like a prison break.
