GA rally....Oct.next year......be there or be square.
Welcome to the Dark (green) side.
You don't have to be crazy to be here......but you'd fit in better.:cookoo::cookoo::cookoo:roflroflrofl
The frame and running gear are the same. If you transplant the tank to another deuce you will have to move the PTO and linkage also. The numbers on the data plate (on the dash) will not match the one stamped on the frame......not an issue if you are not a purist.
Tankers are rare off of GL....the last one I watched sold for almost 10k and it was in fair shape.
I have one that came out of south FL and has serious rust issues.
The tank is stainless on mine.
If I remember correctly you can carry two types of fuel but one has to be gravity fed out if there...
I have seen expandable shelters (like the S-280) but they are few and far between.
I think most of them had canvas and glass shops mounted in them.
There were some on GL a few years ago.....may find someone around Fort Bragg that has one.
SS member Houdel (my spelling) was selling the lug nut socket that allows you to use the same socket on the inner and outer lug nuts.......very good to have when changing tires.
The air compressor wrench is a necessary item if you ever need it (I have one but it is hanging on the wall).
If you...
My experience with GL is that the rank and file worker bees, with a few rare exceptions, are good, helpful folks.
Most of the problems are at at the top out in Phoenix.
I won my command van at Fort Campbell on 10/29/2009,
Got the email today that the EUC has cleared and I can pick it up.
Got an appt for the 23rd......I'm gonna take the M915 and pick it up.
FreightTrain.......now banned from the site...has them dualed out on his deuce.
Works just fine and no probs on our trip to Evansville from Bammer for the MVPA convention this year.
A lot of GA Nat Guard trucks had them on like that.
Anybody near me (NE Alabama) got a window for a M109 Shop van.
One of mine went AWOL on the way back from the MVPA rally last weekend.
I have sold the truck and need to replace it ASAP.
Thanks.
The simplest way is to change the axle but then you have lost the flavor of the MV.
You can get axles/rims/tires at Tractor Supply that would fit the bill.
One advantage to changing the axle is that you could put on one with electric brakes.
The 101 axle has only emergency brakes.
Just my two...
Errrrrr......don't have a number...it is the basic 12 volt fuel pump...the intake fits on top of the drum and has a pickup tube that will reach almost to the bottom of a 55 gallon drum.
The other end has a fuel nozzle like at the gas station. There is a switch to shut it off and on with......I...
When the sides are expanded the drawers will open either way allowing access from both sides.
Since my intention was not to use the van as a workspace I removed the benches.
They are VERY heavy and hard to work around. They are also wired into the body.
They are for sale if anyone is interested.
GL math......10 items in 1 lot @ $150.00 min bid = $150.00+Selling price+10% buyers premium+tax times 1.
10 items in 10 lots @ $150.00 min bid = $150.00+ Selling price+10% buyers premium+ tax times 10.
No brainer for GL bean counters.
I remember the lot sales at...
There are several guy on SS that do recoverys...HEAVY is a good guy to work with, met him at Redstone and watched him pick up a vehicle...very professional working with GL folks and tying it down. He has the equipment to do the job.
My apolgies for not posting it earlier....I am having some personal issues.
It was a great rally and the MVPA folks are great (I am a member of the National Org, the Dixie Division and the GA Chapter.
They always make SS members that are not MVPA members feel welcome.
I foresee a lot of...
