So, if I'm understanding this correctly. The M916 will pull the M747 or the M1000 without modifcation to the stock fifth wheel. It will not pull a civilian trailer with out mod to the fifth wheel and pin. I've heard talk about a reverable pin. Does the M172A1 M870/A1 have a reversable pin. When...

I understand that the military has two sizes of fifth wheel king pins. One is large for GI trailers and the other is small for civilian type trailers. How can I tell from data plates or stock numbers which is which on trucks and trailers? Is there a way without going and actually measureing the...

House moving?! I have a cousin in the house moving business. He also moves other heavy and wide things. I haven't talked to him about the possibilty, but looks to me like it would perfect. A little too big and fancy for a logging pull out truck.

Are you east of Dover? I grew up between Big Rock and Indian Mound. We will be getting the other one from Campbell. I've got lots of relatives around. But, the offer of help is very kind. You never know when you need to call in a marker! I need to learn how to unhook the system. You never know...

Need to know the weight of a warehouse crane. Don't have the NSN# in front of me . But it is 7ft. wide. and the boom lift at 15% elevation is 17,000lbs. Four wheel with small cab. That's all I can remember off the top of my head. I'll try to get the NSN later. Thanks!

Well, we did it! The instruction placard was inside the rear door, just where y'all said it would be. A bit confusing but the first four or five got us started. The rest we just kinda figured out. The small wrench was there to unlock the four bolts on the sides. The wrench to crank out the...

Where can I find a video, on line, that shows how to expand it? Or other good instructions? I haven't had time to get a TM, can I down load one on SS? How much gen set do I need to run it? Will a 5 KW work? Many thanks, in advance!

Brought home a HMMWV on Monday. Unloaded and drove it to town, about 10 miles. While unloading it, I started it 4 or 5 times, no problems. When I drove it to town, I stopped it for about 30min. and it would not start. I couldn't figure it out. I'm kinda new to these vehicles, so I called a...

No headlights on my HMMWV. Replaced 3-lever light switch with new one. The old one was broken even before I knew the headlights didn't work. All other lights work. All connections look good. Found this out late in the day and have not had time to check hot wires or grounds. Also haven't had time...

What county is Hixson in? If your mule is a A5, it could be anywhere from a 68 to a 70. Mine is a Bafield 1968.

I need to haul a Kawasaki Mule 4010 in a M1101. What is the length of the inside of the bed with the tail gate down? And, the distance between the wheel wells, inside the bed. Many thanks, in advance.

The LARC with the Gama Goat in it is a LARC XV (15 ton), however I can't see the headlights on either side of the loading ramp. I believe this one has been modified in the front. The LARC LX could haul two goats, side by side. Remember, the LARC LX was built to haul our largest main battle tank...

The BARC was renamed in 1960, to the LARC LX. The only LARC that does not have a loading ramp in the LARC V (5 ton). The LARC XV (15 ton) looks almost the same as the LARC LX, smaller of course, one engine and 2 headlights on each side next to the loading ramp. The LARC LX has 4, 671 Detroit...

But, None of it's in my reach with a dick of an uncle. Well, you know what they say, "You can pick you're friends, but not you're family!

I gave you some bad info. The website is route6x6.com, and the AATV was called the Sur-trek. The unususal locomotion website is a good one. It has every amphib. ever built there. The Melli was the Swiss vehicle that was most simuliar to the goat. I believe it may have been first, and may have...

Gama Goat realtives? Search the web, and check out the "Coot". There was another ATV built in the 70's that had a two piece body, but I can't remember the name. I remember the two body halfs had 4 wheels each. Go to route6x6x6.com and look there. I believe I saw somewhere that they are building...

Sanford, FL., didn't I see something in the news recently about Sanford?

Just out of curoisty, did you get the MAN truck that was at state surplus in Nashville a few years ago?

When my son was at EOD school, he said there was a picture on the wall in a hall way of a guy loading artillery shells on a mule. On the side of the mule was a hand painted sign that read "EOD". He said he though the picture may have come from Vietnam. Does anyone have pictures or personal...

Actually I was thinking of Sam Werner, but I thought he was in Tracy City. Someone told me about Otto. I keep my eyes open for CUCV stuff.
