As far as visually they look pretty good I don't know of another way to check themAre you sure the pulleys are aligned with each other?
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!

Yeah the grey ground pedestals I know the love those I open at least the a week with a nest inside I've learned to use my feet to open and I kick the **** out of peds before I open them and Arial terms I hit them with the ladder or a set of layup sticks before climbingI'm in complete agreement with you, for once. The first year I hit a yellow jacket (the ground dwelling ones) nest with the weed whacker I looked like the Michelin man for a few weeks afterwards. Learned that one could either become immune, or get allergic, as a result.
The next year, after hitting another nest with the weed whacker, I found out that I got allergic. After that I had to carry an epipen...and decided to let a hired crew clear the weeds from then on.
And for what it's worth, wasps like gray colored phone terminal boxes, too. You'll never guess how I know.
Can you get a straight edge in there to check? Lay it across the faces of the pulleys. Either that or a laser line.As far as visually they look pretty good I don't know of another way to check them
It's okay, it's okay; you're the Champ...a quick breather now, and then get back IN there!you know i swear they put those things on earth just to mess with humans, did you know they have a venom that effects humans worse than any other creature, and they dont create anything worth a thing... what are they really for if not to mess with me, in the phone company we have these pole mounted terminals (20' in the air mind you) of course the designers made them black so they attract heat and you know what wasps love more than anything? HEAT like why in the **** did they make them black jeebus Okay :Soapbox: rant over
i will get that cleaned up as my next step if the squealing returns, as for now it seems to be betterAlso check inside the v-channels for rust, even a little bit can cause belt slippage, especially in a vehicle that may have sat for long periods of time. A piece of sandpaper wrapped around the end of a pen or marker will get in there to allow you to remove the rust.
Thanks lots of work still to do weather is starting to turn so I should be able to get into body work soonThe truck is looking good!
Its all came down to the right timing, sold my car pulled a personal loan and I'm paid pretty well as a phone guy, and I had started a 2 week vacation the day I got the truck so it was VERY easy for me to spend time working on it, also my wife likes the truck so that helps...Awesome thread man. Been keeping me interested. I just got my m1009 early February and I wish I could be moving as fast on it as you are on your 08. Keep it up!
