For anyone who enjoys alcohol please BYOB BUT!! I will NOT allow anyone to leave the Compound if I think you are not safe/legal to drive...and you all know I will have LEO presence before, during, and after the Parade and I WILL have them hog tie you and not let you go until you are...

I'm available to drive whatever or I can bring General Non-Sense, your choice. I would prefer to drive the M151, I didn't get around to it at the rally.

After talking with Simp5782, it's almost going there. I did the stock air filter modification on my my truck and it turned into a beast! Well, I had my pump gone through for a leaking seal that was dumping diesel into the crankcase and they upped it 10% on the bench from factory specs. I had...

I blew quite a bit of black smoke at higher speeds on the way home when floored for a short distance. I finished the air canister mod this evening so I am using almost all of the air filter media now and I washed it out 2 nights ago. My observations. It shifts around 2,000 rpm now whereas...

I have not read a thread on here concerning such a conversion. I'm quite certain a good fabricator could pull it off with no trouble. If you decide to go that route, I'd get an entire donor truck so I could swap the backing plates on the axles out and rob the components to add air brakes to...

Mine is an A1 and it only comes on during a long uphill climb. Just drove 185 miles and it only came on a handful of times. Gauge never went over 180. Outside temperature in the mid 70's and running around 55 mph the whole trip.

Sarge has found a ride and will be there on Thursday around the same time as myself thanks to a good friend of mine, Riddle1. I will be following behind a pair of Deuce and a Halves in my M923. I hope to see everyone around lunchtime on Thursday and making some deals! I'm also looking forward...

I thought I had everything locked on, still do, just have to adapt and overcome. A typical Monday turned into a hit a 50 pound dog on the way to work in the Trans Am day. That is a hit toward the negative but keep moving. I had dropped my M105 trailer off at a friends shop to load their...

5 Ton is back together and ready to roll to the Ga Rally. I had a how dumb am I moment this evening when I couldn't get it to go in gear. The transfer case was still in neutral from the tow preparations. Anyhow, it is running awesome and somewhat stronger than before. I got to drive it...

I need one! I'm not sure of the price but I am interested somewhat! I am partial to the M151's but jeeps are becoming rare as hens teeth these days.

I'll look in the shed but I'm sure I do. Even swap for an air governor you sent me a few months ago?

Of course. R & S Diesel in Albany, GA off of Roosevelt Avenue. I have no affiliation with them but certainly appreciate a good job at a fair price. There's quite a few shops that won't touch these anymore.

Look in the classifieds. Member Fuzzytoaster over in Texas normally has good takeouts for about $90. A spare PCB is as important as a spare tire on these trucks. Buy 2 if you suspect that yours is bad so you have an extra one.

The 5 ton lives! Installed the injection pump, bled the lines and boom, it is back to life! I had a few loose ends to tie up but got called out once again by the National Guard. A few observations though. The truck will hit 2,200 rpm very quickly and sounds stronger than I have ever heard...

You don't need the gear reduction. That will break loose lugnuts torqued to 400 ft lbs. I keep one in my truck at all times. It will also tighten them down to spec. Just need a 1/2 to 3/4 drive adapter.

I got a phone call from the injection pump shop. He felt like both seals on the drive flange failed simultaneously. I asked if it was because I had upped the fuel screw and he laughed. He claimed that it still was not to factory specs with my 1/2 a turn. I asked if it had anything due to...

Copying some comedians from earlier. Cabin rented, order of march sorted out, things to buy list complete, family plans in order to ensure my group will be there. All of that is a resounding "GO". Whoops, my injection pump on my 5 ton decided to act silly and give my NHC 250 a Pre Rally...

Ok, once again I have overthought the process. Swamp Donkey, we would likely be miles ahead and alot less work involved it we simply inserted a drill bit into the "emergency shutoff" and adjusted the position of the set screw device on the cable. Full fuel would be available and an engine shut...

I need to pick her brain one day, I'm a little older than her and am a GS-11. I'd like to have some advice on how to climb the ladder quickly.

The weep hole was unfortunately packed with 30 years worth of crud from an inexperienced owner not even knowing it was there. Some fuel did come out of it though, right onto the oil filter canister. Roughly 7 gallons of diesel found it's way past it though and judging by it's location, a slow...
