That lense is still usable with the headlight mod as the only part i kept was the center. Especially with the chrome horse head those are harder to find.

One of my favorite films. I don't think it could be made today, though.

I attended a week long symposium of fatigue theories in Detroit fairly early in my career. Was quite interesting, as some of the presenters had worked with some of the folks that had developed modern fatigue theory. One of the examples that came up about critical and detectable Crack lengths was about a turbine blade hub that had some fatigue failures in military applications where the minimum detectable crack length was essentially the same as the critical crack length. The presenter then added an aside that many of the engines used on airliners that most of the attendees flew in on were based on that same military engine. I just chuckled, as I had driven in from Lansing. @953 nut - sorry for derailing your thread.

I do not believe so - the torque spec for that application is for using the Eslok nuts...
-
I don't but never really thought about it

We tossed a fried TV last week, and my buddy snatched the cord off of it before it landed in the dumpster. That cord is sitting on my bench!
-
Bill and Paul, just curious. Do you need to increase the recommended torque when using the mechanical locking nuts.
-
Welcome! Are you using, or re-using the Eslok hexnuts in the assembly? Do not use pegular hexnuts or nylok nuts! Just where did the bolt break - at the head, at the end of the threads? Eslok nuts are not supposed to be reused without Loctite, as the split fingers loose their grip strength when removed and reused. One solution - use grade 8 3/8 24 fine pitch bolts & new Eslok nuts. The threads are stronger on a fine pitch over using the coarse thread. Very important - torque and retorque to verify the nuts are properly tightened when you assemble the diff...

I haven't ever broken one. What Kind of lock nuts did you use?? If it loosens up the slop will lead to breakage. I am now using these
-
Yes, I learned my lesson there John. Thanks!

I had problems a couple years ago using an amazon brand switch on my 314.

new issue Broke a bolt in the differential. this is the second time. first time was several years ago. I fixed it up with some parts i had and replaced all 4 bolts with grade 8 3/8-16 x3.5" bolts this time the broken bolt popped a hole in the bottom of the case. I think i may have a spare case half But may need part 2822. it is the side of the diff case. Any one else have this issue?

I am in the same position, only a functioning set of molars in each corner and one of them is an implant. I know the price is high but I had my fill of lesser dentists, and this facility has four good ones and the service is excellent with immediate response for serious issues. I'll soon be 80 and haven't spent a dime of my retirement savings, so it might be time to loosen the purse strings.

Have a nice Birthday !!!!
-
your close to "old man" thinking, I seem to cut the old cords off of any appliance I am throwing away. Just this spring I took a box of "I might need it" cords to the scrap. that old belt driving era must really have been something, the old man had a table saw he ran with a an old motor. of course attached to a 2x10.

Mice really enjoy the privacy a tarp provides them, Hope the stator is good, hard to get a good reading on extremely low resistance like that.

The rain absolutely hammered the food plot, yay! We also saw a pretty nice typically 6 point entering the field from the road at about 8:30 last night running to town a minute. I’ve seen lots more bucks in the area this year than any year past! I shot my bow from 20 yards for the first time all season too. It’s not easy with my shoulder injury, but I’m getting better every day.

Grandpa, where is my razor scooter???????? I wanted to go for a ride on it!

Much like the plastic dash and tunnel covers on the GT-14, the headlight covers shrunk, or the tractor outgrew them!

Happy Birthday @formariz, hope all is going well for you and the family, we miss you.
