Depends on what I have to pay for them.....last year I had some similar ones that went for around 20 bucks a pop (I think). You know I'll treat a Brother right.

I have picked up some oddball stuff from my old logger buddy (where he gets this stuff is a mystery to me). He has some steps that I think came off a HEMMT or similar vehicle. They fold up if they hit an obstacle (to some degree). Anyone doing a custom fab work might find a use for...

They are no longer rebuilding the 900 series so they are going the way of the deuce.......they just did not have as long a life as the deuce. I have seen 900 series 5 tons trucks sell for more than the M915's. I'm not that big a fan of the 900 series 5 tons but they are more user friendly...

Years ago we were doing Motor Stables (weekly vehicle maint) and all the vehicles had to be started and idled for a least 20 minutes. We had a young 2nd Lt. that knew everything there was to know about any military subject you could name. My buddy was sitting in the drivers seat of his deuce...

This deceased equine has been flagellated previously.:deadhorse::deadhorse:

It always blew my mind that the Military put such small tanks on line haul trucks....when we convoyed from GA to CA we stopped for fuel three times a day. The old M915's were only good for around 400 miles on a tank....if you were lucky.

Driving a Mack is like kissing your sister...it's OK as long as you don't start enjoying it and none of your friends see you doing it. Call Mack and ask.....they were prob destroyed but you never know.

Or chemical decon apparatus. Those were a popular fashion accessory on military vehicles.

The "usual suspects" in power loss are fuel filters, restricted fuel line (dent or kink in line), restricted air filter and in some cases brakes dragging. I switched all my trucks over to spin on primary filters because that is where most of the crud and water are going to hit first.....they...

MY uneducated guess (cant tell the demsions) would be a 20MM dispenser from a Bradley or Stryker.....but I'm not an armor guy. Might even be a 50 cal. from a M113.

Are you a vendor if you are just pimping parts out the side door of a big green van trailer???? I'm sure the money is for a good cause but that's about 7 gallons of diesel.

Mass (weight) is your friend.

The Durhamtown shower house is not much to write home about.....most of us bring extra towels and stuff and use the shower in the cabin of a fellow SS.

If you bring it they will buy. If someone don't buy it you can trade it for someone else's junk that they don't want. Sunday morning the horse trading gets intense.

The stacks were fabbed from HUMVEE fording exhaust pipes......I used flex exhaust pipe to come under the cab and fabbed a splitter that came out under the bed. The bed was far enough away from the cab so that there was room to run the pipes up behind the cab.

Here is a suggestion......buy a school bus in CA......they are ususally well maintained and sell cheap......take out most of the seats and put a barrier between the "cargo area" to prevent the bees from getting to the driver in case of a leakage. You can drive non-stop and the drivers will...

A M275 is a tractor with a 5th wheel......unless someone has butchered a rare truck what you have is not a M275. The tractors had a shorter wheelbase and the van body will stick way out over the bumperettes. It also had the fuel tank on the drivers side under the door. This is a M275:

He is buddies with the guy that runs the scrapyard.....he said he got 15 bucks per hundred.....that's his tale.....I'm sitting on mine.

Back in the day the deuces had side exhaust pipes that came out beween the duals on the passenger side. I have considered "Lake Pipes" on a bobber....but I still prefer twin stacks for that "big truck" look.

I'm sorry to report that the truck has met an ignoble end at the scrapyard. He claims he go top dollar for it so it had to go. There will be another one up as soon as he recovers it from SC.
