    What did you do to your trailer today.

    Already rolling tool box with military parts. Has double bed, TV, AC, play station 2 what else does a man need for a man cave. Might add refrigerator but ice chest works fine for the weekend. Don't need shower or piss pot as I don't want to carry water or waist water. Total upgrade for oil...

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    Had Tampa spring in Ocala add sub frame and air axle to her. Looks much better level and running 11x24.5 tires. Best upgrade to the trailer I believe.

    Which Fuel Injection Pump for replacement

    2800 Governed. I would keep it 2600 and under to help with the life of your motor. Right foot controlled.

    Bought a M37

    People go down the road in there pickup's everyday with unsecured loads in there bed's with no problem. One would think that is ok but I would bet if the DOT got nasty then all loads that something could fly out or leave the bed if it was in a accident need to be secured. Rick has lost of small...

    M1078 LMTV planetary hub setup

    Yep that is what I did. I had to have a machine shop cut it for me at 95 bucks. I did not have a horizontal band saw to cut the face off. Any hub will do.

    M1078 LMTV planetary hub setup

    I wonder how critical the lash is. I have a growl at have off throttle. I repacked bearings and worked my way out with two new gear sets in 2 of the 6 hubs. Set it by eye and feel using a cut off old hub to Steve's 10/20. No noise change at all and when I first opened them up there was a lot...

    multifuel fuel pump hydraulic head removel

    No nothing broke/wore out correct proper timing is all marks on the money ( balancer & 4 bolt advanced window) and the Head will be one tooth to the rear. We only remove the Head when Head alinement mark is on the money but the other two would be off then. So sounds like you are good to go.

    Trying to dismount a tire

    Did the web sight with the wheel and there numbers help with your question. I have combat rims and matched my wheel number to the web sight and got the correct ones at 1/4. I don't believe in running a bigger O ring than what the wheel calls for. Double check both half's of mating service and...

    Head Removal

    Somewhere in the TM it says to stamp the head if it is taken down any. If you have to take it down you might want to look for the stamp to see if it has been done before. If you take it down then stamping might be a good idea for the next person who works on the engine.

    hemtt won't start, fuel issue

    I like this for any priming or filter change. I have one and I leave it hooked up on one of the cranes for quick priming as the Detroit sits a lot. Bought it back in 1980 when I was running Detroit's in dump trucks. If I had Hemtt I would install one and leave it on the machine so any fuel...
