Why not have your existing 24V generator rebuilt? Problems with generators are often no more serious than cleaning or replacing brushes. I have done it myself several times and it is normally quite easy.

Not much you can do about your age, but you should have no problem getting an MV. Welcome aboard!

Is there any information printed on the old hoses? I've had good luck finding filter replacements for MVs using data printed on the filters. I've also had good luck with radiator hoses on trucks by taking them to a truck parts supply house and matching them up.

I have had heater cores replaced by radiator shops in the past, and always for a fair price.

I would replace it. You can find a cheap one very easy.

Where in Tennessee?

If you want a W/W, then by all means buy a truck with a winch. However, the most important thing is to get a good mechanically sound truck. Don't rush. You will find a good W/W deuce and be happy. When I bought my deuce, a winch was a must. I ended up buying a deuce from GL and driving it...

Your friend needs a reality check. My Deuce is very reliable. I drove deuces in the Army (multifuel and gassers) years ago and again all experience shows them to be reliable. You need to remember that these trucks are mostly 40+ years old now. Even so, they are reliable. Getting parts is...

You could narrow it down by comparing your VIN # with others, assuming they are indeed sequential. If it was me, I would trust Carnac.

Congratulatioins! Ditto on never trusting a Deuce fuel gauge - visual inspection only,

I like the magnetic mounts because they can be easily removed. The ones I use are very well made, with a strong magnet, plastic coated so that it doesn't mar the finish. I got them from Windswept Promotions at Licence Plate Holders - Promote Your Dealership . I went through some poorly made...

I wouldn't use steel - it is asking for trouble. Sometimes it's difficult to tell how much strain there is even when being careful. I have also heard of some of the aluminum shear pins being made of the incorrect alloy, which is softer. Perhaps this is why some aluminum pins are shearing...

I think he's OK regarding counterfeit plates, as long as he has a real SC plate displayed on the rear. Could be a different story if he enters a state that does have front plates, but I think he could explain his way out of it. I live in Georgia, which also doesn't have front plates, but I...

It's good to see that you are working your Deuce! Helps earn their keep.

I saw five of them at Camp Lejeune on the GL lot several months ago. They had USMC markings on them, and were brand new, not a scratch on them. The GL guy had no idea what was going to happen to them as they had recently arrived on the lot. Unless there is a specific need for a 419, I would...

I use John Deere Plus 50 oil which is 0W - 40W synthetic base. I use it in my Deuce and my two John Deere tractors. I'm very satisfied. You should do a search, there is a lot of information posted on SS on this topic.

I just bought some new tubes for my NDTs that were labelled by the manufacturer as suitable for either bias-ply or radial tubes. These were not NOS.

Bob, You are correct, of course. I was thinking constant wattage.

On 24 VDC the current will drop to half what 12 VDC will need. This also means that you can get by with smaller gauge cables to the winch. A friend of mine ran a Warn winch on 24 VDC for years without problems on an M37. He also minimized the duration of pulls, although I don't know if this...

I have an MEP-003A genset and I have never had the main breaker trip, even with large loads. I have an air compressor with a 5 hp motor and it starts fine without tripping the breaker.
