    M932a2 - general questions.

    Welcome to the wonderful world of dealing with a contractor that has a virtual monopoly on government surplus sales.:roll:auaaua Everything GL posts about an item for sale should be taken with a large grain of salt. Never, ever take what you see for granted. I learned my lesson a long time ago...

    Loaded out an M1070 today.

    As I posted earlier these trucks are geared low and have a high reving two stroke Detriot diesel engine in them. They are heavy and have the aerodynamics of a cement block. I drove them in the active Army and in the Army Reserve. If you are worried about fuel milage don't even think of buying...

    Deuce Spare Tire mount

    I'll see if I have just a plate. I wouldn't want to canibalize a good one. I'll have several of them at the GA Rally in my sale pile.

    Official 2013 SS Georgia Rally Info SSGR13 thread

    I'll be bringing some cast iron skillets to make cornbread in. Cornbread made in anything else is cake made out of corn meal. It will also be made with real bacon grease so bring your Lipitor.

    M932a2 - general questions.

    Daniel and his wife both work at WRAFB and are super good folks. He can assist with recovery or answer most of your questions on recovering items from the base. They will both be at the world famous GA Rally coming up next month. You should make every effort to attend and become immersed up to...

    Fired up the M936A2 today.

    A couple of thoughts come to mind. It may have had a major leak that was repaired and they didn't top off the tank due to cost of fluid and wrecker not being used. Someone may have pumped out some of the fluid to use in another wrecker.

    Hello All ! Georgia is in the House !

    Jim....attendance at the GA Rally is not mandatory but is highly recommended. It is the premier military vehicle addiction event (not to get cured, just to get a better fix) in the country and is the stuff of legends. You can't have more fun without taking off your pants. Hook up with your local...

    Wreckerman's redneck engineer trailer

    I have considered making it some sort of dumper. My main issues are lack of workshop, lack of practical knowledge on hydraulics, lack of funding and lack of energy. It manuvers pretty good behind the M927 but getting it in tight places would be a challenge due to the turning radius of the truck...

    Wreckerman's redneck engineer trailer

    That was a less that well thought out field expedient method to keep the bed level since the wood pieces under the frame were rotted out up front. As soon as I get to feeling better (according to the Doc I got a tick born bug that makes me feel like crap on a cracker) I'm going to make some...

    M923 CrewCab Project

    I like crew cabs (in my old age) but often wonder why not put the cabs back to back (and have suicide doors)? It seems like the fabbing would be easier since you could cut the backs off both cabs and then weld them together without having to worry about the sheet metal not matching exactly. You...

    Wreckerman's redneck engineer trailer

    I recently aquired a dropside 5 ton bed from fellow SS'er Zout and a Bolster Trailer from SS member microjeep. I had this design worked out in my warped mind for a while and finally everything fell together. Fortunantly I also have the use of a M936 wrecker that I'm baby sitting for another...

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    Be sure to post it on the "Railroad locomotives and rolling stock" thread. Oh wait.....we don't have a "Railroad locomotives and rolling stock" thread. HINT, HINT, HINT!!!!!

    M923/A1 Fuel system common issues

    Offroad fuel is red to differentiate it from taxed fuel. The dye used can be identified by a test strip used by inspection officers. ATF does not contain the dye. Also putting two quarts in 60 gallons of fuel is not going to change the color of the fuel very much if at all.

    VA Counselor: You say you want to have your VA pension upped due to a Service Conneted Disibility? Can you give me some details? Me: Yes. The dreaded Green Iron Addiction. I'm addicted to military vehicles. They consume most of my time and all of my money. I got hooked on them when I was in the...
