    Official 2019 Steel Soldiers Georgia Rally (19SSGR) - Georgia Military Vehicle Rally

    Ok, I know many of ya'll have attended for many years, so you gloss over the ever-lengthening main post (#1) above. So here's the cliff notes: A. The waivers of liability are now combined, so you only have to sign one, as opposed to two. And, you can download it here and fill it out and...

    Official 2019 Steel Soldiers Georgia Rally (19SSGR) - Georgia Military Vehicle Rally

    This year will be very similar to last year’s event, obviously the date is 2019 specific. So, if you’ve attended the last few years, you probably know what you need to know. We'd also like to take this opportunity to thank our 2019 sponsor, Memphis Equipment, for their assistance. Without them...

    Brake line flush

    I did not change out all the rubber components. This is one of those things where I had read all of the comments about an alcohol flush and switch to BFS being a bad idea. And I got in a pickle with my '68 Road Runner and did it. And it ran for years afterwards without issues. I slowly did...

    M44 headlight doors.. how many different styles are there?

    I noticed a difference I think I'd noticed before but couldn't quite put my fingers on it until I had two trucks with headlight swaps at the same time. Both of these are old trucks (60s ish) but left the military in the 2000s, so who knows what they had when new, what got replaced with what...

    Brake line flush

    I have two brake bleeders (the regular pressurized setup everyone uses). I drain the system, then I fill the pressure bleeder with denatured alcohol and flush it all the way through the system (i.e. open all the bleeders). Once I'm confident everything is out, I simply turn my air pressure...

    Trailer Wiring for Deuce

    And most of them don't have electric brake functionality because that's a lot of complexity and integration with the truck.

    Trailer Wiring for Deuce

    Yes/no. I've designed all of the box and built about 80% of it. Last thing I have to do is install the self diagnostic system (long story) and then paint the box. I then have to strip my deuce interior, paint it, install the M44A3 cab brace so I can upgrade to the M44A3 3-point shoulder...

    1950 Kaiser Jeep M35A2

    The stock 10K PTO unit. If used properly, they're extremely reliable and will last forever and you can't overheat them.

    Sherpa winch vs PTO winch

    90% sure Tatras are that way, the Tatra driven from Canada to the GMVR a couple years ago had a midships mounted winch that could feet to the front or rear. I think the MTV winches are that way. HEMTTs maybe? Thanks. I put a lot of thought into it. I didn't want to lose departure angle, I...

    Sherpa winch vs PTO winch

    I have a Warn M-series 18K on the rear of my truck, but I'd kind of like to buy one of the Sherpas and try it. They're a very competitive price point. My junker:
