    M548 tracks

    I know it is a longshot, but is the front right corner dented? I sold an M548A1 to a guy who was bringing it to Alaska. There can't be too many in Alaska. It was a good machine. I am sure it is not the same one...but I thought I'd check. :)

    SUPRMAN in the Northeast (CT or MA, I forget) is selling one in the classified section. There are several pictures included.

    M1045A2 with seized engine...

    I suggest you contact John Murray in DE. He has turbo motors and has the mechanics who could do the swap. I am unsure of the cost, though, but he is generally not too pricey in my experience.

    Will a box, fit a dual axle trailer and can the LMTV tow it properly?

    Copy that. I just wanted to confirm we were talking about the same thing, and I also wanted to clarify in case others with good insight might have missed what you wanted.

    Will a box, fit a dual axle trailer and can the LMTV tow it properly?

    By "box," do you mean an S280 shelter? Regarding your question about moving heavy military hardware, these trucks were designed to be run in convoys at low speeds on highways or off-road at even lower speeds. Neither of these require the ability to pull hills and maintain top speed. If you...

    Winter Diesel Fuel Issues?

    Yes, as Wes said, MD uses a winter blend of diesel fuel during the colder months. With that said, the problems often come in when fuel you purchased during the summer or spring have sat in the tank all year because of lack of use. In those cases, you could have gelling issues. I had this...

    Welcome. PM me if you want to stop by to see or drive anything I own. I am on the other side of DC from you, though. It would probably be about 90 minutes from you.

    Can the Gov't confiscate a vehicle after the sale? Putting that fear mongering to bed

    Uh, no. This is a guy that I know personally...as in, a personal friend who I can call right now if I wanted to. He is a guy I respect very much and I trust what he told me. He is actually on this list, but I don't think he wants to go public with his situation given that he sold the trucks...

    Can the Gov't confiscate a vehicle after the sale? Putting that fear mongering to bed

    Yes, a guy I know in the hobby had a few M939 series trucks that were requested back. I never heard how that worked out. I believe he had sold them, and that may have been the end of it. This was more than a decade ago. I do recall seeing a bucket truck sitting at Meade that had been sold...

    Some Rapco spray paint pointers

    I have had good luck with Rapco spray paint. I've painted an entire M105A2 with the paint. I did not have any of these problems, other than the spray tip clogging on occasion. The paint held up well. I had that trailer for probably seven years or more and the paint looked good. I use it for...

    Lakewood WA m1078A1 retrieval

    I would suggest you get it hauled home so you can learn about it as you go over it in the safety of your driveway. And, check out the manuals, which are available on this site. Good luck!
