    Cummins 250 belts

    True, but I always find it a LOT easier to put the belts on and get everything tensioned without having the fan on... I always hold me breath when rotating that water pump to get the belts tight... ;)

    Dolly my M37

    I should add, sine Madawg308 mentions it, that when flat towing M37's, I've either had front lockout hubs or have pulled the front driveshaft. I'll also toss in the reminder to have good safety chains and a towing vehicle that can handle the 6,000lbs (roughly) that a M37 is (you have to be able...

    Dolly my M37

    If you have the driveshaft dropped, and the seals, bearings, etc. are as good as you say (and the tires are ok), you will be fine. I have flat towed a M37 accross multiple states at higher speeds without any troubles. I have routinely driven my M37 (the one with the Cummins, overdrive...

    Not for sale...

    I have a friend who drives the same M37 today that he drove in the early to mid '70's when he as in the MDANG... I ran into a guy a couple of years ago who had driven my M35A2C while in the USAF in South Carolina... (I sold that truck...). In both cases, I can see them hanging on to the...

    2012 Graves Mountain Virginia rally - Labor Day weekend

    Not sure that we will be at that point by the time the rally is held... We (ok, the dude in Steve and Laura's Jeep club who does this for a living) are working on getting all the trails GPS'ed and mapped with the trailes put on a map. Then, I want to put a copy of the map on the website with...

    2012 Graves Mountain Virginia rally - Labor Day weekend

    Simple, I prefer Eastern NC Style since I live in Raleigh... It's what I grew up on in Central VA and continued to eat when I moved to NC... :) Funny thing, I cooked for a coworker's retirement party last fall in Asheville, and I still hear how much folks liked it and how much better they...

    Just when you thought GL couldn't suck any worse

    Thankfully, I have a really good relationship with the folks at the bases that I buy most of my stuff from (I have all the cell numbers programed into my phone...). I do have a couple of horror storries when I have been out of my usual area (dealing with unmanned sites where the GL rep was on...

    Latest Gen sales on Gl..

    I think that the prices of gensets (and a lot of other stuff) at Bragg depends a lot of it the number of units being sold is sufficient for one of our local dealers to make a mass bid on all of them so that the truck is filled up. Then even if a unit or two is bad, they make money on the...

    Upcoming recovery at Ft. Bragg, NC

    My only comment at this point is that you should have waved as you came through Raleigh... Good to see that the trip went well for you. The folks at Bragg (from the MP's at the Gate to the DRMO and GL folks at the yard) are great to work with... Enjoy,

    ABERDEEN 2012 ( Only 192 days away)

    I had a great time and wish to thank those such as Dudley and Ian who I know are on this forum and work hard to put this event together, and to those whom I know who aren't on this forum but who also put in the long hours... Puttting on an event is really hard work... I'll admit that I...

    So I took a ride up to John Winslows today...

    So, I did tell Don while driving down to Winslow's yesterday to pick up the truck that my GF always travels with three or four big pillows when she rides in one of my trucks, and that he should expect the same from his "Better Half"... :) Don hasn't mentioned it, but he has already joined the...

    ABERDEEN 2012 ( Only 192 days away)

    I have enough range units for my use, but no spares... I may, almost certainly, be headed down to Mike's place before Aberdeen so I could haul some up from him if you and he made a deal... Looking forward to seeing you at the event, especially on Friday... :)
