    Hydraulic Head leaking need advice!

    The valve is in there, it just doesn't fall out with the spring. As Floridianson said, it is matched to the HH, and you cannot change it. I didn't remove it, just pushed the spring back inside, and put the new "screw" in. Gimpyrobb told me this is a fairly common problem, and he knows of other...

    POLL: Are YOU a VOTER ? ? ?

    I always vote, and will as long as I am able. I respect the opinion of everyone that votes, whether they vote the way I do, or not. I don't have a lot of respect for the opinions of those that are eligible, but do not.

    Wisconsin dot to propose mv ban

    Yes, they did. I don't have time to look for where I read it, but I think it's in the newer thread about Wis picking on all classic imports.

    Finally! Boss says I can have one...

    In addition to the other stuff listed here, I recommend taking a good attitude. You know going into it the truck is going to be loud, rough, and hot. 200 miles into the trip, when you're still 100 miles from home, these things should not bother you. It's all part of the game. If you have some...

    GA 2010 Rally After Action Report

    I wanted to say thanks to everyone that made this such a great event. From the planners, to the people that brought their trucks, and the vendors. Everyone did a great job. Recommendations: Location: It was awesome. The site, the trails, the management and the staff. It was all good. Sustain...

    Hydraulic Head leaking need advice!

    Good point. It actually made a pretty good spray rig. I could have driven up and down the camping/vendor area a couple of times and saved Carnac the money he spent on ant poison.

    Hydraulic Head leaking need advice!

    Problem Solved OK, so I found some answers buried deep in the bowels of TM 9-2910-226-34, and with the answer from Floridianson (thanks) I was able to fix the problem. I tried to loosen and re-tighten the screw, but it leaked just as bad, or worse. So I switched it with the one in our 2nd...

    Hydraulic Head leaking need advice!

    Another IP leak I didn't want to start another thread, and didn't find the answer I was looking for in any other thread, so I'm going to use this one. I have finally found the leak that kept our truck from the GA rally. When I rev the engine, there is fuel spraying out of the HH around the...

    Deuces by VIN number?

    Vin Thread I think what you are looking for is here. Carnac has resources to decipher the VIN. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/members-rides/45889-2010-vin-info-thread.html

    where's my drive shaft?

    If you can't find an original replacement, you might try where the rock crawlers get theirs fabricated.

    For those of you in California

    There is a proposed Bill in California to counteract Assembly Bill 32. See the attached PDF for more details. They are talking about classic cars, but I think MVs are just as vulnerable to AB-32.

    5 ton dump truck adventure ready to start

    It's hard to see the spare in the pictures, but it and the tire on the ground look like retreads. Not a big deal on the back, but I wouldn't put them on the front. On your first post in this thread: I wish we had a place to drive 100 MPH in the USA. I would still own my turbo mustang. :driver:

    5 ton dump truck adventure ready to start

    Congratulations! I love our 5-ton dump. (XM817) We have less trouble with it than we do our Deuce. We've had it for 15 years and have had to replace the injector seals once, converted to a spin on primary filter, and last year put on a new set of tires. Other than that it has been regular...

    WisDOT renews efforts on TRANS-123

    Yup. Paul addressed this in an earlier post, in this thread. He said: "BTW Mark3395, the State of Wis. is well known for employing milvehs for municipal and county work. Humorously, WisDOT had no clue of this until my Appeal Hearing. They quickly made up a policy which would allow govt...

    Kicked out of my own driveway!

    Offer to take him for a ride. Tell him if he ever needs something big moved, you are always available. Seriously, try to be friends with him, you never know what can happen until you try. If it doesn't work? Oh well, you tried to be the good neighbor, the ball is in his end of the court.
