    Where has it been?

    Those rear bumperette markings are very fresh and may indicate a line number from the Indiana Agency for Surplus Property...as the stencils were homemade. The P425 # would be the vehicle # in whatever unit it was assigned to...Not familiar with either format...

    still questionable existing glow plug controller prob.

    Glow plugs must be working...put a meter on the relay 24V output and read it inside the cab. I think most folks are using the AC60 G now...With no wait light it would appear that there is a problem with your card or the bulb

    Welcome... Deuces are trucks and need to be treated as such... Get the manuals and study them... Don't try to outdrive the brakes...and by all means don't play Army and get into trouble...much entertainment can be had with any MV

    You must check the laws for your state... Do you want Antique Plates, Commercial Plates, Special Plates, ...etc? You need insurance, I assume in Nevada. will you be interstate or intrastate commercially... Will you gross over 26000 lbs or have a trailer over 10000 lbs and the list goes on.

    still questionable existing glow plug controller prob.

    Maybe your new relay is quieter... you should see the glow plug actuation as a lower reading on your Voltmeter... I sure hope you thanked your neighbor for all the trouble.

    m55

    If you want you can purge the whole system and rinse with alcohol and blow out with dry compressed air and refill with Dot 3. The system was designed in 1949 to use Dot 3 and the conversion to Dot 5 Army wide was a rather recent event...like within the last 20 years...The fluid is called BFS in...
