    Harris PRC-152 VAA Project

    No big deal. Confirming the backwards comparability is good enough. Thank you!

    Harris PRC-152 VAA Project

    I have a few of those adapters already. When I see things cheap, like wires & what not, I grab them. Seems our minds were on the same track. In my head, I was thinking of going cannibalizing a serial connection for the radios I have... got a few. My challenge is the mapping. Guess I'll need to...

    Harris PRC-152 VAA Project

    I'm drown back to this thread... I got myself in the same situation as OP now. Got some Falcon II I'm wanting to work in the Falcon III VAA. @aleigh , did you perfect your 3D printed adapter there? I'm my head, I thought this would be ideal. I'd like to make my VAA able to go back to the...

    MEP-8xx wet stack info

    Yes, it stays into the 100deg range at night in summer & in the single digits in the winter. With people in an enclosed space, it gets over 120deg inside very quick... at night. You can imagine daytime! Ended up putting a second window A/C in. I had a Honda for a bit and it hated it. Inverter...

    MEP 802A & 803A Upgrades

    It's been pointed out to me that some of my items have been adopted by scammers of Facebook Marketplace, so be aware. I seldom post things on Facebook Marketplace. If I do, they are usually large items. And they will only be post by me, Colt.

    MEP Generators Auxillary Fuel Line Adapter Kit

    Everyone, Took me a while, but I managed to find the random, oddball adapters needed to make this small kit all at a reasonable price so that it would make sense to offer it as a kit moving forward. The price is $35 shipped. MEP Generator Auxiliary Fuel Adapter Kit Here is a copy of...

    MEP 802a Fuel Drain not draining

    I have had a few plugged up. A lot of them never get used. Best way to see if they can be freed up is open it all the way & blast it with air using the rubber tip from an air gun to get the best seal you can. You're cleaning everything out anyways, so pushing crap back into the tank is what it is.

    I got it from the Texas Federal Surplus Program. It's not private, but not a public program either.

    This TM is for an electronics semi tractor trailer. The link however, has a few good bits of information.

    M116A3 Fix-up & Conversion Thread

    A minor tweak I made to reduce rattling. I made the safety cables double ended so that they can be removed while the generator is being used.

    Shop Equipment, Welding (SEW) Trailer - Aluminum

    Here are the data plates. The one that shows the TM is for the M103A3 that I already have, not the SEW. I will probably do a more complete "walk around" video of the trailer once I get a few more things repaired to kind of show exactly what a SEW trailer is on my YouTube channel.

    Shop Equipment, Welding (SEW) Trailer - Aluminum

    Just for tie down, the chassis, and that it's a SEW. If I remember it, I will take some detailed pictures of each that is on it to show. Normally, there is a tag that shows it. But, it's either missing or was never put on because this is an odd unit. Could be possible I missed it, but I doubt it.

    I probably do. OP, please reach out directly to me via the contact feature on my site. It sends me an e-mail directly to my business address.

    Compressor rebuild went smoothly. Got a 75/25 Argon bottle for it. Found the TM here for the chassis of the trailer, M103A3. Tweaking in a few things & have been welding a bit with it to get better.

    MEP 531A Fix-up Thread

    I'm honestly not that great with these. I've either just ended up not figuring them out or they're good. Maybe someone else will chime in with more help. I'm sorry!

    MEP 802A Fix-up Thread 3.0

    I finally got the title for the trailer, finished doing the service I wanted to do on it, & cleaned/tested everything one last time before I wanted to have it ready to list. It's a gem!

    LMTV Fan Clutch Solenoid Upgrade

    Anyone who may be interested, I have a few "blemished" kits that were attempted installs. Nothing wrong with them, just have some scratches on them & maybe some miss-matched fittings. But, I will sell at a discount of $60 shipped. Reach out via the contact form at the top of my website. When...

    Shop Equipment, Welding (SEW) Trailer - Aluminum

    Yeah, I will have this thing forever. I wish it was a little lighter, but I may look into an axle swap. HMMWV wheels and electric brakes would make it much better behind a regular pickup truck. Usually an M116 or M1101 type is the way to go, but this one is purpose built so the axle swap is...
