....as I sit here and wonder why my $100 Chinese one makes all these buzzing noises. Ha! Yours does look the same as mine before I cut them up to splice them together though. Test it on 24V before you install it or throw the box away.

With A 15 ton tank loaded on a 7 ton trailer my M923A2 wakes the dead. I'm going to sacrifice some low end and go back to a muffler.

So this week so far I have taken the roof and windshield assembly off. The entire interior of the truck out and the past 3 days been chemical stripping the paint out.
I took my wire wheel on the angle grinder to the back to see how far the rust was. Luckily just pitting. Surprisingly the front channel where the window assembly sits is rust free. I did find a safety pin in it, might keep it with the truck.
I had stripped and painted the passenger door last week and was hoping to keep the chemical off it but the wind kicked up as I was spraying and you can see the result.
Used zep industrial degreaser straight. Let it sit for 30 mins then take a water hose to it. I have been having to use a power spray nozzle since my dogs decided to use my pressure washer as a chew toy.
Unfortunately the passenger side window did now make it. I would love to say it was an accident but the door drew blood and I retaliated with a screwdriver through the glass.

I just removed a bad muffler in preparation for the new one that arrives on Monday.
I also fixed the hood bolt that had worked its way loose from the hood.

Going to get a sheet of plexi glass cut to match the other window size and slide it into place.
Wife found a mirror, was memorized, plus she's annoyed at the truck right now.

Drove over to College Station for the Texas MV Rally. LOT bigger deal than I thought!! Lots of MVs from several theaters, jeeps, deuces, 5 tons, tanks.... Even had a WWII reenactment.
could really tell some folks put a lot of time & money into there MVs. I've got lots of work to do. Won't miss it next year!

Airbornebandsman recovered my newly acquired GP M934 from Ft. Sam early this week and I'm still trying to figure out just what in the H*ll I'm going to do with it. A d*mn big food truck, go anywhere job site trailer, 6x6 rolling billboard, on-site deer processor, on-call roadblock. Any other suggestions?
