    power driven trailer

    As stated above this dead horse has been beaten before....that being said I have always been a fan of oddball projects. How about a driveshaft like the ones used on tractors to connect to bushhogs or other equipment...they have a shaft within a shaft that allows a lot of flex. It would be worth...

    Mini-rally at Papa Bears

    There are several motels within a few blocks of Papa Bears LZ. Do a goggle search and look for motels on Victory Drive. The closer they are to the Confederate Gunboat Museum the closer to PB's place.

    AL to Fla Keys

    I am considering trading my bob deuce to a fellow SS member way down yonder below Miami. To help defray cost I will be hauling the bob deuce and a regular deuce bed on a 28 foot gooseneck. If anybody has items I can use to fill out the load and would contribute to the fuel fund I can deliver...

    Alabama meet and greet

    My legend preceeds me :). Freightrain lies like a bad rug. I do work on my own vehicles and am helping him murder a good running truck to repair the vehicles in his canibalization yard. I am now located between Collinsville and Gadsden. If there is enough interest we may host a small rally...

    M819 RECEIVES NTC400!!

    Since my 250 had the catastrophic runaway I am contemplating a similar swap. An old timer mechanic near me has a 400 with a 9 speed tranny for a good price. Since I am going to let him do the swap I will print out all the above and let him read it so he will know what to expect. Thanks for...

    Bobbed deuce springs

    To use waste veggie oil I filter it through two blue jean legs sealed at the bottom. After I get all the gunk out of it I put it in a 30 gallon drum and set it in a warm area and let it settle for a few weeks to get all the water to the botton. I pump off all but the last few inches and either...

    My New M269

    We had those trailers in my unit at Fort Benning, Ga. We called them "Air Force Trailers" since they had blue paint under the OD green. We used them to pull two 4000lb rough terrain forklifts at one time. The transportation unit next to us had a M246 (wrecker with a 5th wheel under the boom) and...

    Think I can fit these???

    Here are some pics that were posted on pirate 4x4. This thing needs to be saved. The guy that owns it is in his 90's and is being taken care of by his daughter. When he passes this machine may be sent to the scrapper. It is in much better shape than the one I saw in Arizona. I dont'...
