I did some research and Tannerite is neat stuff....it is what you do with it after you mix it that matters. As illustrated in the following excerpt of a news article the COMMISARS do not like LOUD NOISES......RL
On January 14, 2008, a man in Red Wing, Minnesota was accused of detonating 100...
So when do you plan on hanging your shingle as a pest exterminator?????
We would do things like that up here in the communist state of New York but the commisars do not like loud noises.

WM you are absolutely correct on the fuel thing. Add an LDS and you know where my MPG is.....about 6-7.
I like the S280 because you can almost heat it with a match. Great insulation. I plan on winter ops so I want the extra warmth. My bones do not tolerate that below zero stuff in the monring...
There are two possibilities that can cause the brake lights to stay on.
1) the master cylinder has a "relief port" which is a tiny port into the main bore ahead of the piston. This serves to allow the fluid to return to the resevoir releasing the brakes. An additional possibility in the master...
If your license is still active, and at ten years it should be, you can look it up. Here is a link to the FCC ULS database
License Search
Select "NAME" and enter your name (Last, first, MI) as it was when you received your license you should be able to find your call sign and get a copy of...
I mounted a receiver on my frame. I drilled it and had no concerns. Torching a frame is bad. They get drilled all the time. The metal is actually not as hard as the new frame material is these days.
I used grade 8 bolts. I had to adapt the receiver with 3" .25 web angle. I have used it...
I would suggest making sure your tires have proper inflation.
Top off all fluids including the oil, radiator, transmission, transfer case and differentials.
If this is your first extended drive with your deuce you have no clue as to how or what it will consume on the trip, so stop after...
Lubrication is the key and there are different grades of U joints. I have found the greasable ones are not always the best, or the worst and it depends on the manufacturer. If you get greasable U joints, you will have to grease them yourself because 9 times out of 10 an Oil Change Shop will not...
Keep in mind that if you try to turn the wheels without moving you are placing an unworkable amount of force on the steering gear. The AIR O MATIC is designed for the 900x20 and the larger tires do place more resistance in the steering. If you only try to turn the wheel when you are moving it...
A 455 with each bank dumping into a 4 Inch wye pipe and then up a stack with a muffler in the stack assembly will sound quite solid, not too "monster truck" like and would do a good job of getting the fumes above the cab with the noise as well
You have to remember the M125 10 ton gasser had a...
I prefer Hydraulic oil or at least a non Automatic transmission oil for an application such as this. ATF has friction enhancers and is not as good a lubricant as the hydraulic oil is. The increase in the friction enhancers is why the Automakers all went to Power Steering Fluid 20 years ago...
That length radiator is tuned for 5.56 meter length radiowaves and is about 60-70 MHz. That is if my math is correct. This is at a 1/4 wave length. Half wave would be for just below amateur 2 meter band, and could be to other tactical communications in the 125 to 140 MHz.
Could be for FM air...
Wikallen, you are right on your post as are everyone else!
In my experience with all sorts of "specialty" situations, a good quality and wise and experienced technician, or parts specialist should definitely be able to explain the whys, why nots, and how tos in such a way that it makes sense...
Recht, glad to hear about the great running truck and the smooth trip to Carlisle and home!!!
I was quite fortunate to have a fresh rebuilt LDS in my deuce when I got it from GL. Runs out great carrying an S280 shelter on the back loaded with "stuff" (figure about 4k total weight and lot of...
Definitely not good and the oiling system is not functional unless I am mistaken about that.
This is definitely a thing that makes one think a bit!!!!!!
I will stow that one away in the memory bank.,...hope I can find it when I need it!
