Thats exactly what Im doing. My wife hates it and other around think Im crazy and should be saving not spending but I try to tell them that that is whats going to save this mess. Dont go buying stuff you cant afford but to just keep spending like you would normaly. My job is week by week wether...

Maybe if Corey is watching this thread he'll take a look at the belts for me too on monday :wink:

Why is that?

Thanks it was full of cob webs when we cut it off and was pouring rain when I got home so I never even looked at it.

emmando22, the thumbnail attatchment you have in the original post, is the round part with the pin letter arangement, is that looking at the truck receptical or looking at the intervehicle connector. I got the trailer connector a guy cut off a 105 trailer last night and need to wire a 4flat to...

Im not to worried about that part. If I get down there and there isnt one in there Im sure I can find a parts store close that will have one.

Just make sure it stays locked. Ive only been on this site for a few months and would trust just about 99.9% percent of the guys here. But theres alot of lurkers and like I said about Ft Riley, theres nothing ever left in those trucks.

I know the tool box is locked, any chance theres a socket and breaker bar for changing the wheels in there?

Thanks for all the words of wisdom guys. Im gonna print off this thread and take it with me so I'm not standing there thinking to my self "now what did that guy say about checking the brakes". I get more and more excited every day:-D

Good to know about the blem batts. I was at napa yesterday pricing belts and hoses and oils and all that stuff. They wanted $128 bucks each for group 31. How much brake fluid should I bring? The Lube Order doesnt give a capacity.

Thanks clinto but I think I know where theres a few 105 trailers that the owners have cut the lunette off and put a ball hitch on and put plastic civy lights on but still have the military lights on them. gonna check to see if the still have the electrical hook up on the front and see if they'll...

jasonjc, is yours a recent GL truck? one from the OKC sale a few weeks ago? I know how it is when you hear all good things about a truck then go to get it and it turns out bad. I want to drive it home but Corey ( StreetBikeDepot ) says he can tow it and has room to store if it doesnt work...

Ok in LO 9-2320-260-12 on page 2 where it gives lubricants/capacities, expected temperatures, and intervals, down where the steering and hydraulic systems including steering gear box, it says 5qts and under expexted temp rang is says OE/HDO 10. the same as is list for the lubricating oil...

additional ? I want to tow my civy Jeep behind the 818 using those magnetic traler lights from the farm suppy type stores. Im hoping I can just put some 24v bulbs in it and hook it to the trailer recpt. by the pintle. Is there any type of adapter that with fit that recept. and allow me to plug...

Still waiting on the EUC, but in the mean time Im trying to gather up the stuff I need to take. StreetBikeDepot went and looked over the truck for me and sounds like I should be able to drive it home if the brakes work. Those didnt get checked specifically but there are no obvious signs that...

Well done! I like the front turn signals set into the fenders that way. I'm thinking of painting my TJ with some OD spray bombs this sping/summer.

where in KC are you? Im over near Manhattan and Id like to see that cab in person when you get it done.

care to share those drawings? Ive got an 818 waiting an euc approval and I like the looks of those.

Hmmmmm M37, wonder what the wife would say:-D well maybe I should get the M715 back to OD green and get the M818 to my house before I think about getting another truck. That is a nice looking truck. Worth more than 15 min IMO.

Is there any reason you coulnt put some wood blocks (cribbing) between the springs and the frame to keep them from compressing? or something like some big jack stands under the front of the frame or bumper like stabilizers on a crane to keep all the extra weight off the front tires? This isnt...
