Ajax, that's looking pretty good

I finally found a replacement lens for the turn signal indicator after searching for almost 2 years. Small bit of progress but it feels good to get it installed. The old one came out in pieces.

Also called a locking ring style. In regards to other comments in this thread: split rim is a different animal but only knowledgeable tire shops distinguish between these two.

TedCat, thanks for checking up on me :) To be honest I've been keeping the tank at least half full and haven't had a problem since then so work on my tank has drifted to the back burner. My fuel gauge still reads incorrectly so the sender needs attention, but I do a visual check before a trip...

Well that's saying something. Thanks for the input!

I've got (2) 8D batteries wired together for 24V and I'm wondering if disconnecting only the 12V terminal will hurt anything or will it cause some sort of uneven draw? I'm, uh, asking for a friend... The +24V terminal is turning blue (corroding) on the exposed wires where the sheath has pulled...

I just happened to throw one up on my M813 while swapping my spare a few months back just to mimic a picture I saw of a red ball Express truck dualled up with chains in the snow:

I finally got the 5-ton fifth wheel plate out of the back of my 813 and onto the US6x4...only took a little over a year. This will get mounted to the Studebaker until an original can be found. This had the same NSN # as an M818 fifth wheel (which is almost identical to the original) but it...

Amer-team & JEB, do you plan on presenting the other cases of precedent from the other states that have legalized HMMWVs and relaxed the laws on other MVs? Wisconsin comes to mind but there are a few others talked about in the politics section and those successful cases might hold some sway...

Post 9-11, I assume? Did they want proof it was a dummy or ask for it to be removed? Was the guy with the rubber gloves extra thorough?

I hear that shifting should be smoother and easier after replacing the heavy military GO stuff with the proper 50W oil.

Great detail in your write-up! This will be a big help to folks like myself. Where did you end up sourcing the rubber boots or are they generic non-NSN type parts?

If your truck has this switch you need to have this combo of levers: headlights on and then second handle set to park. If you have the pushbutton keypad switch I have no idea...

Well, I really didn't intend for the thread to be a "sales thread" but there are a post or two that are "sales" related, I guess. I better read through the site rules again. The challenge is to get the information that people want in the place where the discussion is happening.

Edit: removed "sales" related update.

Update: after almost all the units have shipped out and the dust has settled I currently have 2 HubHelpers available that have not been spoken for. I previously thought they were all sold, but I miscounted. I have (1) 2.5 ton yellow HubHelper and (1) 2-piece 5-ton yellow HubHelper. Please...

Just a little detail; I added the hearing protection warning decal from Big Mike's back onto the dash after the old one got removed. Didn't quite fit between the switch and glove box door like I wanted but it looks good here.

Lonnie, how tall is a 25B jake head?

74M35A2 - your inbox is full and your HubHelper is ready to ship. I'd like to learn more about your starters so let's talk shop...

This is good stuff! I need to do exactly this to mine as I my PTO leaves more drips on the ground than a college campus crying closet. Are you using a gasket for the new cover or straight glue?
