    Anyone need end curtains?

    Hey Jeremy. Got the canvas. They look great! Thanks!

    Correct 6.2 liter diesel temperature?

    Another reason for running at 160 is the fact that you may have trapped air in the port where the probe is. That location is a high point in the engine and after installing the plate and probe, you will need to bleed off the air by running the engine up to temp and just slightly loosening the...

    Derby, the background in your avatar doesn't look like SE MI to me, but strangely more like northern PA? :???:

    Waterproofing Beachwood Canvas?

    I hope Thompsons protects longer on canvas than it does on wood.... BLO (boiled linseed oil) is what was (is) used on vintage military gunstocks for repelling water. Good stuff. It would take alot of it to do a canvas top, though. I've used the Canvak before and it works ok. I would give it...

    RT 524 mounting question

    I'm guessing the RT is in the cab. No need to run the 2 cables (mx6707 base) in the bed, keep the cables on the outside of the bed to prevent them from being damaged. Bring them in low from the cab to the bed, run up the outside of the bed and come in underneath the standoff and scoop. There are...

    New deuce from Frankfort KY...Help with understanding SF97 procedures.

    First off, Congrats on your new truck and welcome to SS! Keep calling the GL rep for that base, he will know if it can be driven out or not. I've never been to a base that wouldn't let you drive it out. Most GL sites are very helpful and will help you to a degree, like with a jump start. Best...

    Towbar'ing an M35 w/o steering gear

    Clinto, Westfolk will probably chime in, but he recently towed a 5T from MI to PA under the same circumstances. Front wheels were connected to each other and that was about it. No steering wheel/column. He had a big arse bar for inserting into the rim to turn the wheels if needed. He never had...

    Who Designed Alt. Bracket?

    :funny: I would have to agree with you. (Is that blood on the primary filter?) I think the same guy designed the mounting brackets for the power steering pump on a cucv. :deadhorse: (Bat = tibia, horse = designer) BUT, after doing it a half dozen times, it does get easier.
