Welcome aboard! Cheers

My super-sophisticated method for overcoming this is to wrap those small OD hand towels around the locks and tie them on, so they don't rub through the tarp. ;) Cheers

Good luck! Sorry we didn't get to see more of you here. Maybe you can join us for the Temple air show, first weekend in May (nice and close for you! :-)) Cheers

If you go by the manual, it's black on green/brown, green on black. Cheers

Yes. Cheers

:shock::shock: :not worthy: We do a lot of displays in our area, including historic timeline for the military. If we do one in Austin, unless it is at Camp Mabry, its usually "vehicles only, no weapons". (Austin is getting to be like a piece of California plonked down in the middle of...

I saw that 4-prong plug. Interesting. The a/c units I have for the shelters all have 3-prongs. Cheers

Looks like the manual for that unit is TM 9-4120-403-14. You might try finding a copy of that and see what it tells you. Surplus stuff like a/c units are often sold at auction without things like power chords (in fact, getting the chords would be a pleasant surprise!), Colemans likely didn't...

As stated above, the 4-barrel rocket launcher was the M202. It was supposed to be the modern flame thrower, and had incendiary rockets. We had some in our armory when I was in the Marines. I thought they were cool, and always wanted to take one out and fire it, but we were never allowed to...

The military 5th wheel standard on these trucks is 2". It is tall because it can tilt in two axes - normal front/back, but can also tilt side to side for rough terrain crossing. There are wedges that lock this side to side out under normal use. Unless you haul in some extreme places, you will...

Not really! :) I need to remember to put something like a smile next to comments like mine to affirm that I am saying it with humour. I felt we were straying from, or missing, the point of the thread at that moment. Certainly, no smacking or insult was intended, and hopefully none taken...

Aaaargh!! It's not about using the TMs! It's about finding a specific TM from a list on SS!!! Cheers

What Tobash is suggesting is actually a good idea. He is not saying he doesn't know how to use the manuals, he is saying it can be a chore to pick the one you want from a list without an easy to spot clue. By that, I mean it is easier (for me anyway, and likely some others) to find "M809" than...

I'd go for a Sunday rather than Saturday, because most MV events we attend are on Saturdays, so less likely to conflict (as in this case). Cheers

Welcome aboard. No, parts are easy, most everything is available at your local autoparts store. Regardless of year of manufacture of your actual vehicle, you tell them it is an '84. Cheers

I have it on my calendar, Mik. Two hours each way for me in an M1009 or civvy vehicle John, longer drive for you, but it would be nice to see you! Sorry you'll be far away, Carnac. Cheers

Welcome aboard, António. I have sent you some information on your V100. Looking forward to seeing progress on it. Cheers

Antonio, I sent you an email on the starter information you requested. Cheers

Congratulations 155mm!! Now I'm free to vote for Miggins forklift next time! :) Love that thing. Sure was a great bunch of competitors this month. Cheers

So, we'll see you at the parade on Saturday? :p [thumbzup] Cheers
