    M1102 Cargo Trailer Albany, Georgia

    I’m in Houston and can receive your trailer from your carrier and drop it at the port when your roro sails.

    Decontamination bed CCKW

    Hmm, if you restored it, you already have a picture of all that it would be good for, a museum display. The structure looks like it just needs new planks. The tank looks like it would take some very special carpentry to remake the wood pieces. Not sure what I would do with it.

    Newbie Needs Advice on HMMWV

    My advice on paint comes from my efforts in the past to paint prep HMMWVs like the one in the attached picture. NOTHING is more time consuming than attempting to prep a truck like this for a decent looking professional paint job. 5 or more flaking coats of military applied CARC with zero prep...

    My Carb is Driving Me Nuts!!

    Biggest mistake people make in rebuilding carbs is hoping tiny passages are clear. You MUST run a drill through each and every passage.

    Newbie Curious What I Missed

    Big question to me would be did you end up with a GM engine or a GEP. 2000 was the change year. I think GM. See the bar code decal, that’s a GM thing. I also don’t think that engine has ever been removed or rebuilt which is a good thing. Given the engine is NA, most likely the cracks that...

    Alternator pulley education

    At this point, weld on a couple ears for your puller to grab onto. The weld heat will assist with opening up the clearance on the shaft.

    M1078 fan clutch question

    With no air the clutch is engaged. He was right. Double check you have the right fan to go with the clutch you have. The fording switch overrides everything.

    Alternator pulley education

    Does the pulley have threaded holes? If so get some grade 8 bolts, thread them in and attach the puller jaws to the head of those.

    Small under powered pickup meets its replacement

    Yup they shift rough no question about that. And yup when towing something that drags them down. I used to do a lot of flat tows of M37s with it and oh that was awful. Loaded in the bed was not bad.

    S-318/G Shelter, Electrical Equipment

    Yup deer cabin is a good continued use for that one, given every single item is removed from the interior. I won mine from a DRMO auction at Ft Hood back in the 90’s, glad I kept mine inside or I now know what 30 years of sitting outside would do to it.

    Small under powered pickup meets its replacement

    You're thinking of the Reo with the OA331. The 302 moves these GMCs like a scalded dog. Back in the day I drove mine like I stole it, 60 mph against the governor at 3400 RPMs for hours on end.

    Need a 6x6 Road Tractor in Central Florida

    Those 40 ft boxes are 7000 lbs tare. I drag mine around empty with a 915 in a dry grass pasture without issue. The box lifts up about a foot when I pull on it. It’s empty though.

    High pressure oil line

    Sorry people I would not put that on my trucks. Those thin tubes sticking out are much more susceptible to vibration fatigue than oem.
