    Picture of Texas Former Military Vehicle plate?

    That's the one I found, but it was issued in '08 or something.. Is that still the current design?

    Anyone titled/registered a truck through the mail, in TX?

    Contacted a tax office. Seems like I just need to mail in the forms, and they'll call me with how much I owe them, and they'll mail me the documents back. My mailing address can be where I'm at, but I need a TX address on record. Should just be sales tax, right? No yearly personal property tax...

    Picture of Texas Former Military Vehicle plate?

    Only photos I'm seeing are like a decade old.. Anyone get a former military vehicle license plate recently and willing to share what it looks like? Specifically, does it still say 'military vehicle' on the bottom, or did they change that to 'former military vehicle'? I know about the no...

    Behr Paint Jobs- Show me your MV's

    GO, soaked onto a rag then rubbed on windows. You can use grease, oil, any coating really. Let it dry a couple days, then wash the windows and you're good to go. takes a lot less time and money than taping everything off.

    Hooking tow bar between trucks "alone"

    Do NOT get the aluminum towbars from IBISTek for the HMMWVs... They were removed from inventory for a reason. LOTS of failures.

    Not enought numbers in VIN

    I know the mods and whatnot will yell at you to 'search', but I don't think they'll yell at you for creating a new thread when this one is over 10 years old...

    Hooking tow bar between trucks "alone"

    I towed an M1031 behind my M934, and had to unhook and hook, usually multiple times daily, by myself. I found a flat piece of parking lot or road, unhooked the pintle, then used a ratchet strap against the brush guard to tension it. Then backed the M1031 out, which popped the lunette off the...

    Yet another fluids thread....

    After reading probably a thousand posts, and dozens of threads, probably hundreds of pages, I'm now more confused than ever, and my head hurts. I'm making a list of fluids, and in searching, the amount of 'use this, not that' followed by 'Make sure you use that, not this' is making my head...

    5 ton expando vs. extra long wheelbase cargo.

    The expansible van is kinda crap in its design. Sides are blocked when folded, since the roof and floor are the sides when not expanded. So, everything permanent needs to be in the center. If you're gonna set up for a couple weeks, it's great. Camping and setting it up and only staying a night...

    Deuce Jack Safety Questions

    Any suggestion on where to get actual 6 ton jack stands? Most of the local stores seem to have '6 ton' jack stands, but they're actually 3 ton jack stands as a pair.

    What antenna do I need for 450MHz?

    Off topic, but my M1031 had antennas for 2m, 440, general coverage RX (no HF), CB, 2.4 Ghz, 700/800 Mhz, and another VHF 1/4 wave used for a TV antenna, in addition to the reinforced 3/4 pipe flange that I could screw a 10' pipe into, and guy down, if I needed a long wire for HF or the extra...

    What antenna do I need for 450MHz?

    Low power handling capacity could be an issue. Most mobiles are around 40-50W.

    What antenna do I need for 450MHz?

    That would be it

    What antenna do I need for 450MHz?

    BPV-220-520 is probably what you're looking for, but good luck finding one at a reasonable price.
