This is quite common. What DesertRat said to do is exaclty what I do on trucks. 90% of the time this cures the problem.

I usually drive in service drive..I figure with the headlights on if some yahoo runs in to me I'll be less at fault. You can run in daylight in the stop ligh position, but make sure that the panel lights are in any position other than park. As for what cause the switch to burn out hard to say...

Nice looking truck. If you need actual GI paint I got it. Ditch he air buzzer and replace it with the warning light kit that's available. Forget putting wood troop seats on it, you can pick up a complete set of fiberglass troop seats for under $200 at the Tower Park meet in Lodi this spring...

This might be of some help to ya http://www.olive-drab.com/od_mseries_lightswitch.php3 The few times I've seen a problem with these light switches are when someone forces the levers. it's possible that before you bought it someone, even a GI, could have tried to force the levers without first...

If I remember right Jack Tomlin had a complete one. If anyone can giveyou any information that guy can! I don't know how helpful that would be though, Jack is such a wealth of knowledge that sometimes he can actually give you too much info making your head spin for weeks after<img...

Good choice Wyattearp. I rebuilt one of the turbos on my pulling truck. About three months later I noticed some shaft play, took it to a highly reputable shop and he said the balance was within factory specs, but factory specs can be as much as 15% from a dead zero balance! He said they don't...

Don't blame ya one bit there!

That's sweeeeeeet!!!! DAmmit, now I gotta get out the credit card later today. I think I'll get a bunch to have for sale at the Tower Park show in the spring. A shirt with the deuce on it will sell like hot cakes. Hey, how come my size costs $3 more LOL

Your best off to get a good used or a new one. You can rebuild the turbo but they really need to be rebalanced after you reassemble them, if they are off just a hair they could last forever or five minutes.

That makes awesome wallpaper for the 'puter!

da_sgt no seat frames, but I think this fuel tank is good. When I get a good day I'll pull it and see. Got yer PM, still looking for it but you'll be the first to know.

That's another good point, I've had people try to open up my trucks and such "I drove these back when I was in the Army" Man nothing ticks me off worse, if it ain't yours don't touch it. What kind of parents raised you<img src="emoticons/icon_smilie_bitchin.gif" alt="Bitchin"><img...

Good point on the bigger jack. The BII jack is pretty useless, just wanted to say that a bottle jack is probably easiest kept with the truck. R 4x4 brought up a good point on the wheel chocks too. I keep mine stowed on top of the fuel tank between the edge of the tank and frame rail. Having them...

BII (basic issue items) kit comes with a bottle jack. Don't know if you'd be able to use the Hi-lift without hurting yourself.

Nice buy, look pretty good and don't see rust mites. Not too far from you to boot, that makes it even better!!!! I've got a M37 I'm parting out if ya need any parts let me know-minus the bed doors and cab. Lots of suspension parts and fenders.

Gotta say it again, that sure looks nice<img src="emoticons/icon_smile_approve.gif" alt="Approve"> Too bad it's so detailed, I could make up decals on my vinyl cutter.

I run mine until they are drag slicks. Surplus market is the best deal you can find. You'll want to come to our military vehicle shows over here on this side of the mountains, you can find anything and everything for your truck there.

that is major sweet!!!! I like it, yep, I like Kenny's t-shirt and decal idea!!
