    A Father's Day I'll always remember.

    Happy Father's Day. Plan on top repairs before the ride home. It looks unstitched.

    2014 haspin info thread, June 11-15th

    Holy Smokes. Just checked weatherbug. It's showing 47° in Laurel IN. That's got to be a record in June. Starting to really dig global warming. Maybe I can do a Haspin Rally one day.

    FL - registering m1101

    Should only need a VIN verification. Pretty sure they are under 2000#.

    Damaged CUCV Rebuild

    Sweet. Should be back on the road soon.

    Narrowing the track of a M116A3 trailer

    I had a similar concern with my M101A3. That is what led me to look into sectioning the axle. I reluctantly bolted on standard M1008 stuff (6.5" wide factory rim) and it fits perfectly.

    Spun a bearing today...

    Vac pumps on the 6.5 are belt driven. The fuel filter occupies some of the real estate neede for a can driven vac pump.

    Spun a bearing today...

    Unless it's out of a 93 truck, you will need to swap injection pumps. 94 and up use the DS 4 electronic injection pump.

    Narrowing the track of a M116A3 trailer

    The HMMWV rim and tire will clear the frame rail by about an inch with the A2 axle. I built a similar trailer but used the M887 SECM and the frame of the box was wider than the frame of the trailer and the HMMWV rolling stock wouldn't fit. Your SECM body may be different. Sectioning the outters...

    Anyone know what these are for?

    That transfer case PTO has nothing to do with the winch. Lets test the memory here. Rear (transfer case)PTOs were used on the M60, M108, M49, M49A1, M49A2, M50, M50A1, M50A2, M50A3, V17A/MTQ, V18A/MTQ, M756A2 and on some M45s and M46s with decon bodies and other specialty bodies. Dumps did...

    2014 Ga. Rally volunteers needed

    Anyone know if Lamar Rowland is coming? Need doog tags for the Tigger Memorial.

    Anyone know what these are for?

    I don't recall if they were governed or not? My M108 wasn't. If it were an M60 it would have had the doubled frame.

    Anyone know what these are for?

    It was once a fuel or water truck. As far as I know, they were the only ones that had a governor cable. The cable at the IP originally went to the trnasfer case PTO. Does the data plate say M35A2? Is it hand stamped?

    Feh. Rockauto screwing up my order for an exhaust system.

    I used grill paint but I did prep the pipes pretty well. Since I worked in the field, I had the resources to put it up on the lift every so often to touch it up. The diesel exhaust doesn't seem as hot as the stuff from my big block days..

    Feh. Rockauto screwing up my order for an exhaust system.

    If you do go back to RA or another Walker dealer, I've listed the part numbers in my post above. You can confirm them all with the TM and Parttarget but the one Eric crossed came out to the same number I produced from the Walker catalog. I worked in the exhaust industry in the early 80's before...

    So this just happened...

    Between now and tomorrow there is another step you can take for cleanup. If I have to leave mine before the bottom is clean, I put one of the cheap lawn sprinklers under the truck. It keeps the stuff loose and knocks quite a bit off while you sleep (if you don't mind running the water).

    So this just happened...

    Isn't that some great stuff? FM 20-22 is your friend. It covers much stuff like this. I prefer the 1962 version but there are at least 4 versions (that I have). They are on ebay cheap too.

    M1028 hard starting

    Drock, can't post links to active auctions or CL ads. It's part of the forum rules. I took them out.
