No particular preference for any vendor, but here is an example:

I can make a new harness for the civilian LED headlights and solder everything nicely, I can crimp the military connectors and put it all together. But for the life of me I cannot get the three locking screws for the headlight bucket rings lined up so that all three of them actually grab. One...
Your auxilliary switch ("ignition") may not disconnect properly. I can play with mine and get the air buzzer to stop but the battery/charging gauge is still on, if I deliberately keep the switch in an almost-off position. Yes to the battery cutoff - that is a good safety device in any case!

Installed my green, then red, now green again aluminium M35A3 fuel tank on my A2. Nice to have a non-rusting, non-flaking clean tank. I used 2 1/2 inch fire hose, cut open, using only the inner sleeve that is fabric on one side and rubber on the other as underlay.
Installed NOS driver...
The glad hands are a standard truck supply item (that is probably why they went AWOL on your truck). Just get a pair at any truck stop and screw them in.
I am planning a petition to suspend the seasons. I can't deal with shorter and shorter daylight hours where you can't get anything done after coming home from work, falling leaves that stick to my fresh paint and constant threat of rain showers when I am working on my truck outside.
I want June...
How to remove, replace the door and how to rehab interiors (glass, window channels, locks etc.):

Swapping the door was straightforward. The problem was that the door, new hinges and all, did not sit...
Mine has a military vintage JB weld fix on top from where constant drip from the cargo bed has put a hole into the tank. Also, a steel tank will eventually rust and flake inside, causing issues. An aluminium tank simply won't.
Alternatively, you can have your steel tank boiled and then coated by...
Just spent half an hour trying to fish the door opening limiter rod out of the hollow area where the pop-out cab vent sits. I was surprised how much crud and leaves and general dirt collects in there.
Open the vent, grab the spring from the outside and gently push it down and in to unhook it...
I swapped out the driver door for a NOS one. What a pain in the arse that was (doing it alone). Stripped 4 of the 8 hinge bolt heads. Door is not adjustable, other than by gently "persuading" and I am still not happy how it sits. Also, the hinges have hinge PINS, not BOLTS and the pin is so...
These guys have the carb kit you are looking for: https://carbkitsource.com/kits/ck0532.html

Karl Kostman, that nanme was what I needed! Fender beading or fender welt. Plenty of sources, 1/4 inch bead, 1 1/2 inches wide. Hard to search for stuff without the right name! Updated title; maybe it helps someone else.
Fender weatherstripping/body gasket - fender welt - fender bead
I know I saw it somewhere here long ago but cannot find it - where can I get the gasket/weatherstripping between the front fender and the cab? Any specs etc. on it?
When you consider that the truck is some 40 years old and left regular military maintenance and repair about 10-15 years ago, I can guarantee you from my own experience as a Deuce owner that this will NOT, ever, be "the only" problem.
I consider myself fairly meticulous maintaining my truck...
If #5 does not get any/enough fuel or not at the right time, the culprit sits before you even get into the engine. A seeping head gasket or leaky rings are not even on the radar, yet. Could be a clogged injection line also.
I know you changed out the HH and it did not improve the situation.
