    GA HEMTT PLS M1074

    This is a rare opportunity to own a 10x10 HEMTT PLS M1074, this truck is NOT like a typical 8x8 HEMTT - "This is a regular HEMTTs big brother that plays football and works out everyday". As best I know there were less than a half dozen PLS HEMTTs (M1074-M1075) released and current...

    What have you done to your HEMTT/PLS/MK48 this week

    Welcome to the "Having fun with hydraulics" club... I did a lot of replacement of hoses on my crane. It was amazing to me that a very small dripping leak would kill the hydraulics of the given system. The winch has several hard lines and flex Links that can bleed off pressure. Especially...

    What have you done to your HEMTT/PLS/MK48 this week

    How NOT to start your military vehicle Collection So this is effectively my first post here and I haven't taken the time yet to document my full story; so I guess I will make this an informal introduction and a starting point for the story. To provide a quick summary, I bought 2, yes 2 HEMTT...
