    Info Needed on My Ride - PSI MB4 Monster Conversion

    I think the PSI Mobile Products name disappeared about 10 years ago. Mine is the exact same as yours. Air Force has been retiring it's fleet of those. Mine ran a few years ago. $2K.

    Info Needed on My Ride - PSI MB4 Monster Conversion

    They seem to have been absorbed by NMC Wollard. How does that thing do in the slop? I have one of those here that needs to go away.

    In the activity stream, how can we filter out posts associated with classifieds etc??? The filter button does not accomplish this.

    M1 and M1A1

    Nice trucks John. Do you find that they have just barely enough power to move themselves around? I drove one once and couldn't believe that they were all that severely underpowered.

    I'm havin trouble getting dang title :/

    Jim, I am no expert on this at all but I thought it was commonly believed on G838 that the Budd number on the plate under the hood had nothing to do with the serial number/VIN/registration (hood) number???

    Why the 120/240 split issue?

    Why don't you try it and let us know how it turns out. I have personally never seen what happens when you put a TV set in series with a refrigerator.

    M38 question

    So you are saying less than $800 for all 4? That is an insult to the seller. Put those on Ebay and watch the bidding wars begin. Those are some nice rust free, clean Jeeps.

    I'm havin trouble getting dang title :/

    Do you have the registration number painted on the hood? This is same as the VIN for 151A1s. Muttguru on G838.org can help decipher the number under the hood to give you a year.

    found m35a1 what am I in for

    To answer your question: The M35A1's that still have the LDS427 were surplused in the late 1960's. That means for the most part they have not been military maintained or upgraded or overhauled in a long long time. The truck may have been somewhat maintained by whoever owned it, but nothing...

    Gin Pole

    I used 3" 11 Ga wall pipe for the poles. I inserted 1" x 2" bar stock in the ends and pounded the tube to the rect shape and welded. I drilled holes in the bar and bolted to the lifting shackles, another grade 1" 8 bolt joins the top and provides a place to hang the snatch block. I have a...

    1960 M38A1 dana 25 Front Axle shaft Removal

    There's your problem, that is not a M38A1, it is a CJ5 with open knuckles, entirely different setup.

    1960 M38A1 dana 25 Front Axle shaft Removal

    Once you remove the hub and spindle, the axle shaft will pull right out. You should not have messed with the spider gears.

    M915A1 not fueling properly

    The PT pump costs about $400 to rebuild and an hour to remove. Then you have a $5000 truck again.

    M1037 HMMWV Project, Eye Candy 2

    Nice work. Does it have the heavy rear suspension? Mine runs around with the wheels tucked like a M151A1 with no S250 in the back.

    14.00-24's & 10 ton parts

    Oh they are old alright, one is a 1968. And the tread is maybe 50%. But beggars cant be choosers when it comes to these 24" tires. I don't like the look of the equipment tires personally. I won't be hauling a M60 with this truck, only a M172 with a D7 at slow speeds.

    Humvee Tires

    GL just had a big HMMWV tire sale at OKC, the stacks of 4 were bringing 250-350. This is mounted take offs. The cheaper ones were the MT's and the higher ones were BFG's. You can have a motor freight line pick up anything you buy. That will cost you another 350 or so.

    Deuce driving tips

    If you are running NDCC tires and it rains, braking on pavement is about the same as braking on ice.

    new M715 project

    The FD was using the 12 V alternator to power lights and sirens and radios. That needs to go along with all that extra mess in the battery box. Looks like a short waiting to happen. All you need is the negative cable going to the frame and the positive cable going to the starter switch, and...
