    There is a stage way back in the campground woods. I would agree the pavilion is central, but there is no trees there. If you get in the campground wood, no much level ground. Maybe I'll head in early with Gimp and figure something out.

    Which US MVs have locking diffs?

    Just read a MV article about some WW2 marine cargo's having them. David Doyle should know more, since he wrote it! Ha, got off my lazy butt and looked it up. International M-5H-6 trucks had them for the Marines and Navy.

    Hilton's inside. Problem is there's a rule, no riding after 9 or 10. But, if your camping out in the woods, they let you go, they only police the campground area at night. Since there's no electricity or shitters in the campground, why not move? There is a shower and restroom at the main...

    I'll call today and set up the group discount. wed thru sunday, 18-22. Just mention steelsoldiers. Before when I would arrive late, they would not charge me for the night. Don't know if that's a rule or if I just got lucky. Also, if we want to do some night runs, we are going to have to set...

    M105 tailgate, "legs?"

    Thanks lane! The M108's going to stay a gasser for a while. In a couple of years going to convert to multi and store ALL the gasser parts for rebuild.(engine, transmission, transfer, wiring, and all body.) Then later on, when I can afford it, put it back to gasser. Need to make it multi so I...

    M105 tailgate, "legs?"

    It is a really neat trailer. The liftgate was cool, and Lane got a lot of goodies with it. Does look better upright. Hmm...wonder how that happened... Did I miss you TedG? Tried to meet the SS guys. I have a really bad memory for names and faces thou... Dennis

    Yes, I figured out the brakes GIMPY! Seem to remember someone else with me when they screwed up the first time. When I left, I had forgot to open the line to the M108 airpac. Once I opened it, I could tell a big difference, really helped on braking. Just a little lag before the towed trucks...

    DUH (brake problem)

    Well, mine was on for about 8 months. I think it will work under constant voltage. :o

    DUH (brake problem)

    One of those days... When I picked up the M108, it had some broken brake lines. Replaced the brake lines, bleed the brakes. The brakes would come on, but not release. Figured the master cylinder return port was plugged. So the other day, I replaced the master cylinder. It was leaking...

    Spark problem, oa-331(FIXED)

    RE: Spark problem, oa-331 Got it fixed! Found a new distribuator at the swap meet, and it cured it all. Runs MUCH better, hitting on all cylinders. Bumps around some at idle, but sounds like the idle is a little rich. Need to set the timing yet... Very happy to have it running better...

    Got the M108 hauled to the show, just in time to help the trailer ho(citizensoldier) get his motor picked up. Decent show, about 60+ vehicles, and some really rare ones. Got to meet Ida34, citizensoldier, monkeyboy(something like that), and another guy, sorry I forgot your name(really bad...

    M35 engine, transmission swap, & road gear

    Looks like you've done some serious work on the truck, like the crane. More pics! Looks really good for being blue. I had a problem with the truck running out of fuel after driving about 5 minutes. Don't remember what is was, must have been simple. Are you getting fuel back to tank at the...
