    Cummins Problems - I figured out what my miss was.

    I had the same problem back in '09 with my M818 - one of the #3 cylinder valves dropped into the cylinder while at 1800 rpm and 45 mph. Before I could shut down the engine, it hammered the he11 out of the piston, injector and other valves. Also, some debris got into the #4 piston, but not bad...

    WA to ND trip

    Don't know that I'd drive an MV over Lolo pass. This sign is on the east side, but it works both directions. There were some tight turns and steep grades. You'd make better time and have more room to maneuver if you stay on the interstates.

    My first buy on GL M1102

    I gorrilla-taped magnetic lights to the trailer tailgate to pull my M1101 home since I already had the lights (body is aluminum, so magnets will not work). The cheapest way to go is to get a plug and wire for your truck and attach to the trailer light plug. This info is from others here, I...

    2012 louisiana steel soldiers rally

    I forgot my camera this year, and I guess not many others had cameras either. I've only got 3 cellphone photos to add. The first one is my M105A2 camper. Next is Wehring with the 50 cals Last is Chief TWright cooking breakfast.

    2012 louisiana steel soldiers rally

    Made it home a couple of hours ago after a GREAT weekend. Really enjoyed spending time with old friends and meeting new ones like Joe, John, Juan, Bighurt and Stonepicker. Also bought too many things to tell my wife about.

    2012 Louisana Rally Trader's Post

    I have buddy that buys and sells ammo cans and said he will sell .50 cal cans for $10 each which is less than he gets from people at his his roadside sales. Let me know if anyone wants some and I'll bring them, otherwise I won't bother. Also, let me know if anyone wants those MRE cases at...

    2012 Louisana Rally Trader's Post

    Sorry, the NOS 24v fuel pumps are promised. I have 50 cases of MREs made in 2005. I just ate the Jambalaya and Chicken with Cavatelli meals and they were.....well, lets just say they tasted like fresh MREs. They've been stored in AC since FEMA gave them to a fire department after Hurricane Ike...

    Need truck moved - VA to TX

    I'd be tempted to pick it up for you Justin, just to visit Meadows of Dan again. One of my favorite places, and some of the friendliest people (as long as you weren’t a revenuer man). I used to be the County Extension Agent for Patrick Co a loooonnnnng time ago. Doug

    2012 louisiana steel soldiers rally

    The going price for MREs is $7.50, so everyone chip in and I'll buy a few cases. That way we will be able to save on the portapotty, too! :twisted: Actually, anything to eat is good for me, I'm not picky. I've et raccoon and bear, but not possum (although I did try some...

    2012 Louisana Rally Trader's Post

    I've got two NOS 24v fuel pumps with hoses and nozzle - great for the used oil burning guys for transfering black fuel. Also M871A flat bed trailers, M101A1, M101A2, M105A2 trailers are available. For families, I have pairs of M101A2 and M105A2 trailers with consecutive serial numbers!

    2012 louisiana steel soldiers rally

    Whoa Nelly! I just found this thread. I'm blocking those dates on my calendar so I'll be there if my company doesn't send me out of state again. Just got back from 2.5 weeks on the road from El Campo TX to Raleigh NC (did get to meet/buy stuff from 3dAngus). Doug

    Maryland MV owners are in trouble

    I did. Born in Baltimore, and left MD in 1974 when my eyes were open enough to see the writing on the wall. It took another 10 years to convince my parents that their dollars went a LOT further outside of most of the New England/Mid-Atlantic states.

    Fire Dept Wildland truck opportunity

    Police and FDs are snatching them up like candy from Ft. Polk in LA. I'm surprised the Forest Service hasn't picked them (or more of them) up yet.
