    M998 Brake Issues

    Based on my research (and I have done a lot) of units sold, current units on the normal market places like FB Marketplace, Ebay, etc it is a good deal, and feel I could flip it for a profit if I chose to go that route. I am not referring to any auctions like any of the Milsurp auctions but are...

    M998 Brake Issues

    According to people I have talked to in NC that have done these it is a simple walk in and get it done kind of thing with no DMV inspection just a few notarized forms, etc, etc. NC made changes last year to make the process much easier.

    I am working out those details, but he can issue a reassignment which is what planetgov does to the original purchaser. The original SF97 is to planetgov then to auction purchaser on a reassignment on planetgov letter head and notarized.

    M998 Brake Issues

    Mis-spoke rear brake calipers. Still waiting on him to respond what fluid he used, I am just guessing because this is not what he usually works on. I don't think that is a good reason to walk because I think it is a nice example for what I am paying. I can get it bought for $12k.

    M998 Rattle Can Camo Questions and thoughts?

    Alright guys had a few questions about doing a freshen-up rattle can paint job on my M998 (see pic below). I know it is best to clean and prep the surface and start with a base of green, etc, etc. Could I just clean the surface and use a rattle can to just follow the existing camo pattern to...
