Here's what I carry in mine. In addition to the obvious stuff, tucked in the corners are; magnesium fire starter, snake bite kit, P-38 can opener, thermal blanket, splinter tweezers and magnifying eyepiece, police whistle (much farther range than a human voice), and aerial flares from a marine...

Some of the members may be able to help with "highway" drive flanges and a set is really handy for just this kind of occasion. Getting a set and having the splines bored out might be easier than finding a set already machined. A cover could be machined out of billet but a stock set of flanges...

Depending on the brand; CARC/Sherwin-Williams, Gillespie, etc., I'd check with the paint manufacturer's Commercial distributer or call the factory tech line. I don't know if any flex additives are formulated to work with the mil. spec. paints but the maker sure would. A lot of flex additives are...

While rooting around in my rack of left-over pieces and drops, I found a couple of pieces of 1 1/2" X 6" bar stock. Cut, shaped and drilled, they'll be my new rear shackle mounts. The old brackets and shackles get pitched and their space will be occupied by new mounting brackets for the...

More pieces and parts are coming down the assy. line. Here are the side supports for the crane turntable. 1/4" steel plate construction throughout. More webs will go in as I figure out where the mounting bolts locate but this first one puts back strength after notching out for the rear spring...

Damon, Sounds like they sold you the wrong flasher; according to my 24P-1, you should have the two terminal version. I looked in my 24P-1 and while it shows the box type flasher I did notice that the connector plug is the same as a standard flasher uses (two blades running parallel top to bottom...

If you have a paper element in the fuel filter it can become saturated with water and that will keep fuel from passing through. If it's partially clogged it may run at idle or under no-load conditions but not if fuel demand is up for any length of tiime. By all means drop the trans. pan and see...

Elwenil's right; timers don't care how many bulbs are in the circuit, or the resistance. If you can get the NSN out of the 24P you might find that NAPA can cross-reference it; they've surprised me by doing that on deuce rear-main oil seals before. Or call the toll-free help desk number at...

I think I recall a picture in a book on early Fords showing a late 30s early 40s Ford car with that set-up in it's trunk area. Sure would be nice to reduce gasoline and diesel to the realm of being only one choice for a fuel; instead of the only choice. First though we'd have to wean people off...

Could be any number of possibilities; from a boat used to push floating bridge sections around to some kind of patrol boat for riverine operations. Do a google images search and see what you can find under 'brown water navy' or 'army work boat'.

When you're towing a trailer or another vehicle display the "C"; it stands for "Combined"-- the total of the two pieces. Otherwise the blank side should be displayed. The weight should be shown as a digit or digits denoting the gross weight (empty or loaded) in 1,000's of pounds. i.e. 13 would...

Looks serious here, son. I'da thought size alone would swing things in your favor when competing for that favorite parking spot at Wal-Mart?

What might be a little confusing it the fact that the governor can be mounted in several different positions; left, right or center (also known as remote)-- that's why the extra ports. If bolted to the compressor, two ports are automatically lined up; but if mounted on a bracket to the...

We had some of the early 151s and we found that a driver could round a corner with no problems; circle the block and round the same corner at the same speed and conditions and end up on his head. The outside axle would tuck under because of failure of the flimsy 'axle travel stops' and pole...

British or "Canadian Pattern", WW2-- but that's about as much help as I can be.

Crane with outrigger assy.+ tank are 3,110#. Add another 45# or so for PTO with hydraulic pump attached.

Air down, carry some Marsden mat, shovel, and always plan your route. Make your stops on the tops of hills or rises, no cross slope driving, and try drive just fast enough to maintain your momentum. If/when you get stuck; plan on burying and digging up your spare tire several times, as you use...

I based the dimension on dma251's HEMTT as well as specs. provided by Oshkosh. 36" from end of frame rail to tailgate (40" of bed due to overhang) gives room to support the crane with outriggers and clearance to let the crane work. To the top of the cranes, the M985E1 HEMTTs with the Hiab...

Well, Several sidewinder cut-off discs and a pack or two of SawzAll blades later; the bed is close to being just a bare deck... and a short one at that. The rear 40" or so is gone and both sides are off; headboard is coming off as soon as I get another free day. I saved the top rail of one of...

Hope they work better than my Dauphine did.
