    M915A1 Richmond Recovery 11-10-10

    Glad to help Jay....sounds like you got a good one. I am still suffering "sellers remorse" for getting rid of my last 915......but money talks. Maybe there will be some up for sale at Redstone soon. I sure need one to pull my van trailer (military RV).

    Dyed Diesel / off road fuel.......

    I am not a lawyer but the WMO and WVO could be considered as "additives" used to lubricate the new diesel fuel to keep from damaging my old engine. As long as there is some taxed fuel in the system you have paid a fuel tax. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

    I'm just curious...

    I buy them because this is the greatest country in the world and allows me to do so. I have been driving them since the early 70's and will drive them until they play "Taps" over me.

    Help with first Deuce inspection - Forrest Park GA

    I think Forest Park is an unmanned site.....prob no way to slave it off if it wont start....if you want to try to crank it you can take two batteries with a dogbone connector and a set of heavy jumper cables and try to start it. If it will crank check the air system, brakes and roll it back...

    M816 wrecker

    The M816 is never going to burn up the road....it is heavy to begin with and when you tow anything with it it gets progressively slower. The gap between the gears is a major PITA especially when up shifitng on a grade....to slow for one gear too fast for the other. The 250 Cummins engine is...

    Just an idea about bobbing

    One of the advantages to bobbing is losing the weight of the rear suspension set up and some frame weight. I personally think it would look very odd and would not work very well....you also may have some safety issues with the DOT. Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should.
