Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Well, that strap may not be the best ring compressor I've seen. And even with a good one, you may have to use a pretty large hammer.Yes, is´t a 15" Big Bore Piston. But we thing it was a bad buy. In this moment we try to fit the piston to the SEE,
but.......... it´a heavy rain.
We try again later.![]()
A FLU419 with a hood scoop, this I must seeIt'll be a different 3-color pattern soon. I've started on that very poorly made and ill fitting fiberglass hood I bought a while back. First I need to decide on what to use for "mini scoops", to make room for the two things that won't fit under the hood. Yes, I had to cut two holes in the hood to make it lay down in place.
What color it ends up being depends on what spray can I grab. I hate working with fiberglass, so it may end up pink.
If it doesn't rain (so I can paint) tomorrow, I'll post a pic...if you promise not to laugh too hard.A FLU419 with a hood scoop, this I must see
I might laugh loud, but seeing as you're in the Actual Midwest (and I'm Mid-Atlantic), I don't think it'll carry.If it doesn't rain (so I can paint) tomorrow, I'll post a pic...if you promise not to laugh too hard.

Not to worry, I'm used to having me and my vehicles laughed at. The reason for asking General Hood not to laugh too hard was due to his age.I could, you're right...
But I better not. You know. Just in case.
Because if I start laughing by accident I sure don't want to upset you, Brother!
I get it.Not to worry, I'm used to having me and my vehicles laughed at. The reason for asking General Hood not to laugh too hard was due to his age.
You just made me want to change the wording in my prior post. It should've said "I sincerely hope that this isn't a general hood, but an exception."The old "Uncle Albert" problem.
The auger and bit I rent when I need them, they are $3500 to buy! But to fit them you need a FLU only bracket and custom hoses. That is what I have available. Not trying to get what I have in them back but something fair.Do I understand you have the auger head and hydraulics, but was unclear if the auger bit is included. What are you asking for the assembly?

Even with the radiator out there is no way to get to the PS pump adjustment screw from the front. Only access is from below - blindly as far as the screw head is concerned.Good job, alpine!
It's great to see that you missed out on rat repairs, and that it all seems to work.
And isn't that power steering belt adjustment fun? Now you know why I changed all three, even though only the alternator belt was questionable. The other day, before putting the skid plate back on, I checked the tension one last time on all three. The power steering belt could've been tighter, but "screw it" was my final assessment.
If your work description is chronological, at least you had the advantage of not having the radiator in the way. Not that I know if it really helps any.
I was afraid that might be the case.Even with the radiator out there is no way to get to the PS pump adjustment screw from the front. Only access is from below - blindly as far as the screw head is concerned.
Twisted minds think alike! I did exactly the same with a vice grip.I was afraid that might be the case.
By the way, did you also get to enjoy having the bolt turn when trying to move only the locking nut? That was the highlight, I think.
Ended up putting long-nose Vice Grips on the bolt's threads, on the left side, to enable turning the locking nut. That was cruel to the threads, but beats trying to get two wrenches (and two hands) in there.
