    Bleeding M105 brakes?? A trick??

    Well we made good progress today. I had to order the socket to reinstall the spindle nut - the hammer and chisel wasn't going to cut it anymore. I thought it was 3 inch, like the M105 TM says, but I just happened to see a post (while SEARCHING for spindle nut socket suppliers) that said it was...

    Bleeding M105 brakes?? A trick??

    I replaced EVERYTHING on my M105's brake system except for one rubber hose and the PB cables (thanks Mark!). I blew brake cleaner through all the lines so I know they are clean and clear. All of the parts from the donor trailer look new, like it came off a fresh rebuild. The system still had...

    Eletric to Air Horn Conversion??

    I picked up a used horn off of a Kenworth (still had a piece of the cab attached) and mounted it on the inner fender. I painted it camo and the added a manual valve on the steering column. I finished it off by tapping into the air supply on the back of the air selector switch for the front end...

    Recovery? Lost...... or Stolen from Ft. Indiantown Gap PA.

    Why are these the only options you present? You admit you have never delt with GL and then you continue with your BLANKET statements. Just because someone offered a opinion different than yours does not mean they are "crying". Just because someone beleives that it's not going to change doesn't...

    Recovery? Lost...... or Stolen from Ft. Indiantown Gap PA.

    I'm N A V Y. The NAVY gave NAS Miramar away to the Marines. Well, it was BRAC and it was the in thing to do, but yeah, if you talk to some NAS Miramar folks, you'll find that they think we GAVE it away to the Marines...............:deadhorse:

    Recovery? Lost...... or Stolen from Ft. Indiantown Gap PA.

    25 years active duty Navy - mostly west coast. So a LOT of Navy/Marine bases and any place you might pull a ship into on a deployment. Miramar (before we gave it away), 32nd street (multiple times), North Island (multiple times), Lemoore, Barking Sands, Pearl, Camp Pendleton, etc, etc and...

    Recovery? Lost...... or Stolen from Ft. Indiantown Gap PA.

    Dodgeman - What bases have you served on sir? What is your source for your statements? Theft is a bigger problem than you seem to think on base. My complex is missing a ton of computer equipment from the last audit. Things have been coming up missing since I was in bootcamp in the summer of 85...

    Recovery? Lost...... or Stolen from Ft. Indiantown Gap PA.

    I'm sure it WILL stop - they'll just STOP selling cheap to small time collectors. Make enough noise and someone might just decide it isn't really worth the trouble to deal with collectors at all. Comparing buying a surplus military truck to a new car is apple and oranges. New cars are...

    Recovery? Lost...... or Stolen from Ft. Indiantown Gap PA.

    Do that and you make the prices cheaper for the dealers and the non SS members. The stuff is gonna sell, no matter if we boycott or not.

    Recovery? Lost...... or Stolen from Ft. Indiantown Gap PA.

    So we stop taking the damaged goods off the lot - then what? We get a refund and it goes back on sale. Even if EVERY collector got together and decided they weren't gonna take it, the only thing that's gonna happen is the price will be cheaper for the big dealers. The big guys aren't going to...

    Auction's over, who got the M17 on GL?

    The links to the photos seem to last forever though. Here's mine from early last year: http://www.govliquidation.com/auction/view_photo?eventId=4090&lotNumber=8109&picNumber=1

    GL Deuces on hold again 2' to TSC?

    The only penalty from GL is you lose the ability to buy again - however, don't forget it's the gov looking to get their stuff back. There will be OTHER penalties. GL is NOT the government (though they try to act like it), just a middle man. If GL is asking to get something back, it's...

    Boarding Ladder theft

    I locked the back of my M109 (with site manager's permission) and I wrapped the chain from the chocks around the spare and locked that up as well. When I returned with my paid in full invoice the locks were cut and the chocks were gone. There was so much crap in the back that I have no idea if...
