    winch cable experts?

    If you search the previous threads, you will find a lot of finger slapping and toe stomping on this one. That being said, I went to a local crane shop, asked if they had any 1/2" cable thinking I could by 200' from a spool. The operator said he had a full take off spool from a recent change...

    does anyone happen to know

    If you can't find the exact one, go to your local plumbing store, ask for a "cushion clamp" they come in several variations and work wonders.

    Can a Parking Brake come on by itself?

    Don't forget to check your cable for proper operation, I've had mine stick and not allow the shoe to release completly.

    Color of convoy lights

    Yellow is for convoy/warning, red fire/police, blue,-LEO, around here green is only used by the Atomic Plant. When you see a green light coming, it's usually not a good thing.

    My M1009

    -----------------My background for the last 5 years of my active duty career was in tactical communications. I really enjoyed COMMS so it only seems natural to want to track down some antenna mounts and outfit this rig with some whips. If anyone has line on some mounts they don't need, drop me a...

    Where can we find "GI" gas cans and mounts?

    I don't know exactly what part of NORTH AMERICA you are in, but at the weekend military show in my neck of the woods, there were several metal GI cans for 15.00. WWII were 35-50.

    Jerry can repairs

    I don't want to get in the purge argument, but I have braized a lot of small engine tanks with an exhaust gas purge. Probably not the smartest though. I picked up a good metal can at a local swap meet for $4.00 with no lid. 6 tables down I got a NOS lid w/gasket for 5 bucks. Sometimes the...

    Interstate Driving Etiquette

    I don't know about your neck of the woods, but in mine driving in excess of 35mph while displaying a Slow Moving Vehicle sign = a traffic ticket. The hazard flashers should not be on unless you are warnng of a hazard. Anything other than that usually invites a traffic stop to see what you...

    The 5th annual Veterans appreciation event is scheduled for this weekend. I seem to spend all year accumulating additions to my little display. I started with 1 truck. Now I make 3 trips to stage everything. I usually set up a hands on display. The young Vets try to guess what the old stuff...

    Debt of Gratitide

    I owe a special debt of gratitude to RUSS132 from Kelley's Island. While visiting Port Clinton, I thought I would respond to one his postings about having some cots for sale. We exchanged several e-mails, and he offered me an outstanding deal. Unfortunately I was driving my wife's car and simply...
