I have only been inside an M60 one time and I doubt I'd fit now.
I enjoyed having my hand on an M60 when it fired its 105 at one of the firing ranges.
It seems to me that given a choice, an M60A3 SLEP is better than no tank at all, a lot better. My Brother was a driver.
Don't know about anywhere to rent/live up that way but I do have a friend that works in IT at UNOH if you have any trouble with their network. :-)
If you are from Ohio welcome back. If you are not from Ohio welcome anyway. If you hurry you can still make the Findlay show.
I usually go out on Tuesday and Matt and I are most times the first two there, not always. It depends but if I have to bring the cat I will be with all my civy equipment. Winged Dodge, ATV and camper.
Very funny Matt.
Ben, Look up Triad Technologies on River Road in Moraine. If they can't build you a brand new hose it probably can't be done. Plus, they are the Parker-Hannifin dealer for the south Dayton area.
We used Fastenal store-to-store shipping to get an engine (Deutz) and transmission from CA to OH and for 775lbs on a pallet it was $275.
No problems and I would recommend their service. It isn't overnight but SS members aren't known for wanting to spend a lot of money. ;-)
I asked Gimpy to put a new spin-on oil filter and gear-reduction starter onto my XM813.
Both very nice. It starts with two low voltage batteries and it starts faster now.
Funny, that's almost exactly the same way I did my XM813 last year. Right in the corner next to the driver's seat so I see it every time I get into the truck. I only keep fluid in it up to the top of the clear tubing, don't need to fill the reservoir.
