We made it home in only a few pieces with TBM-35's deuce. Only a few issues with the recovery. There are 2 or 3 pn holes in the fuel return line at the T off the secondary filters, one hub is getting a little too warm for my liking and the brakes don't seem to want to work right. For the most part minor problems that should be able to be fixed. Will post pics tomorrow.

Glad to hear you guys made it home.:):) If you had done this recovery next week you could have hauled back my 105 trailer!

Well that would be fun!

Well trukhead, I think we may need to get togther someday so I can try out that A3. And if a 920 ever comes up, we may have to duke it out.

Ya you'll have to stop in and check out the A3. I am slowly learning the TM's and reading them to maintain it and repair it. I am happy to hear about the possibility olf titlling it and some project CUCV's. thanks all who've made the struggle!!! I always have cold beverages in the fridge if the housekeeper don't drink em all. we can cool off after we duke it outrofl

I have had wonderful experience up at McCoy, Mike and Seth are the greatest. The gentleman at the OH GL locations are super as well, actually I have never had a bad experience with GL and I have called up and told the customer service that. I digress

Look forward to meeting you and all the local enthusiasts on the trail sometime

Now if a cherry M920 would:grin: just show up...[thumbzup]

I highly recomend a preview. This one looks nice in the pics, but she does need some work. It's always best to know what you are bidding on to make the informed decision. Not saying he got a bad deal, but it just beats getting them blind.

Preview if you can, I did and out of the 14 trailers that I wanted to look at only 7 were up to my personal liking after I took a close look at them. Just my2cents

If all goes well I will be heading to McCoy in the morning for an A3 bound for OH this time. I also plan on pissing on the tires of a certain M939 up there. I will be going either Friday or Tuesday. all depends when I can arrange a driver for my truck. If anyone needs anything looked at that you won today or is coming up soon let me know.
