    M916 with a laid over trailer

    Ya got to hate that. How did it do that on flat ground??? Inquiring minds (nosey people) want to know. Glad there was no more damage nor injuries (other than new BVD's needed).

    Have you ever made a soldier cry?

    I don't know if I ever made one cry but several have made me tear up. I have noticed that whenever I'm in one of my military trucks, be it the beater deuce or the show quality M927, I tend to drive with a lot more patience to avoid bringing any negative attention to the truck.

    turning up fuel and egt questions

    The big mistake some people make when running a "hot" engine is keep their foot in the firewall when under load. Running the engine wide open with a lot of fuel going in it is going to build heat. The idea is to find a gear it will pull in and hold a steady speed.......I always back off the...

    Mounting spot mirrors

    If they were installed at the factory or Maintenence Depot they are usually mounted where they are of the least value. When I was assigned a truck I almost always had to remount them where they worked best for me.

    new here, I want a tank

    Contact Justin Wering and ask him about moving a M46 that was located near me out to Texas. Big toys require deep pockets and the patience of Jobe. I was in a tank battalion in Korea (did I mention I hate tanks?) and watching those guys replace the tracks on M1's broke me of any desire to...

    Thinking about using A3 wheels

    I didn't mean to hijack but those tires and rims are great if you want to single out a deuce and not use the stock rims. While I have an itch for another bobber I don't have the scratch. I hate to see brand new tires going to waste. I thought I was buying the MRAP tires and rims at Redtstone and...

    Thinking about using A3 wheels

    I have four A3 tires and rims that I bought by mistake. If you want them I'll sell them for what I have in them. PM for details.

    F-35B on the USS Wasp..

    We kicked the German's azz because we had an industrial base that could turn out equipment at a rate unheard of before WWII. The Panzer was a great tank but we could replace the tanks we lost faster than the Germans could replace their battle losses. Attrition cost the Germans the...

    M35A2 As a working Truck

    One of my finest deuce hours was when I went into Lowes and told them I wanted two pallets of Sackrete. The guy asked what I was going to haul it on and I said "I got my big pickup truck outside." You could cut the skepticism with a knife until the forklift driver saw the deuce......after he...

    Pulling civy gooseneck with M931

    Since I sold my M915 this project has been on hold (although I do have the kingpin adaptor already). Since I have a set of military tow lights I'll use them rather than fabbing something. I'll still need the adaptor to make the electric brakes on the trailer work.

    Abduction of Elmo

    UPDATE!!!!!!!!! Elmo may be in the company of Ilean Dover, infamous Possum Poacher. She was stalking Elmo last year but after her shrink had her commited to the HA HA Hotel we thought he was safe. I'm sorry I let my guard down little Buddy. Your kitty friend misses you and wants you home...

    Oshkosh Mk 48 General Info 8x8

    While I was at Fort Benning the Marines came down to fire their LAV's at one of our ranges. One of those MK-48's was going down a steep hill just past the Ammo Supply Point and flipped over killing the driver and severely injuring the other guy. Those things are squirrely on paved roads due to...
