The Blue Ox top arrived today and it's fantastic. Seeing the truck in the driveway covered by a tarp or just topless made it feel like there was no hope, but the top arrived today and I got word the Montana title should be here Friday. As arrived: Touched up the paint with Rapco...

Same here. Every so often I'll read up on it and start to understand, then a week later it's gone again like I never knew it. Like algebra... :shrugs: EDIT to add: I think -18 sticks out more than +6

Is that from the cat?

Yikes! I once owned a Triumph TR4A that would run ok, then die. Restart and run ok, then die. While it was dead I checked the two necessities: fuel and ignition, and both were present. So why didn't it run? I'd forgotten the other necessity - AIR! Turns out the exhaust manifold had a leak...

When it dies again: put the ignition switch in run pop the hood remove the pink wire off the IP touch it back and listen for the solenoid inside - do this several times if it sounds weak or you hear nothing, it might the solenoid went bad - easy fix

Well that makes me worry. The box they came in says AC Delco

Today was glow plug day. EDIT to add: 6.5 Turbo I started on the right side aft plug. I used the medium pry bar to bend the heat shield out of the way some. That one took a while. Open end wrench 1/16th of a rotation each time. I did the next forward one and it took about as long, again...

I just ran into this last weekend when I was going through my hubs. I removed the one bolt holding the inboard end of the radius rod and popped it down with a mallet. Seems like a lot less work than pulling the half-shaft. Maybe I don't understand the problem right? Looks like the previous...

According the NSN, the reference part numbers are: 12460338 (USATAC) 91610 (HAYES Int) 5331014171043 5331PL0654139 12460338 (AM General) 91610 (HAYES Akron) RCSK17877 (AM General) X91610 (HAYES Akron) CROSS-SECTIONAL HEIGHT 0.192 INCHES MINIMUM AND 0.202 INCHES MAXIMUM CENTER HOLE...

I those will fit in the M1165, so IN!

It circularly polarizes the electrons for increased speed and decreased resistance. It's a design feature.

Leading zeros?

I only drove a HMMWV once while I was active duty, not unusual since I was aircrew. The one time I did drive one, I got a ticket for driving too fast, not having the license, and not checking the tires before entering a taxiway. Me and another guy were doing some side work as OPFOR and he...

In the meantime, throw a pair of vice-grips under the seat. If you're out and about and the truck fails to shut off at all, pinch the feed line to the IP. Also, "inside the IP" isn't as daunting as it sounds because the shutoff solenoid has it's own little compartment. Mine has security torx...

Looks like one of these

I have a slightly different problem - I need to mount the 450 watt aircraft landing lights from my M1009 on the M1165. I just can't think of a good spot for them.

Having a NOS kit means I have all the parts, and I had no idea there were as many small parts. Most of the ones I see for sale used are missing most or all the small parts. The "instructions" are a little vague, so I decided to write a quick tutorial. PARTS: Base Offset part and cover Side...

Do I need to replace any gaskets when I re-install the cover? I have the AC stuff loose, wood cover removed, and cover cleaned and ready to come off.
