Shoot a PM to maddawg308. He get to Coleman's occasionally and they have had much better prices that the $100 plus ones you found for good used J-pipes. Lance

Welcome to the crew. If you look at the "upcoming events" forum you'll see that there are swap meets/shows coming up in Jim Thorpe, PA and in NJ. There is also a group getting together at the Rausch Creek off road park in April. You'd be welcome at any event with or without an MV. Also...

Don't forget a full spool each of gun-target line and orienting line. The last one of those tanks I bought had a little extra artwork on it. Some GI took a Sharpie to the muzzle crown and wrote "Hey Hadji, if you can read this, you're f%^ked!!" Tanks for the memories guys. Lance

Kevin, you also forgot to ask: Can I trailer it on my lawn tractor trailer behind a '63 Ford Falcon over a 14,000 foot mountain pass... My trailer won't have brakes or taillights and the load only outweighs the towing vehicle by 31.7:1, is it safe... When will GL take my money... Does it...

Unless the metal brake line has developed a pinhole that would appear to be, as already suggested, a leaking flexible brake hose. They are pretty inexpensive and if one has gone the others may not be far behind. You'll be bleeding the brakes anyway so for the time and money that you might...

Heck, I think the mud line inside the truck that was half way up the doors was the best part. If it were my truck I'd have never washed that out of it. It would have given Nancy a rash every time she walked past the truck. Lance

Welcome aboard. If the data plates don't have a delivery date the closest you can get for it's year is from the DLA contract number and for some year ranges the serial number has the year embedded in it.. The 7th and 8th characters of the DLA contract number are the year in which the...

Welcome 760 My first deer rifle (as opposed to using one of my Dad's) was a 760 BDL rifle in 30-06. I bought it with part of my first enlistment bonus back in...umm...well, let's just say it was a long time ago. I wish I still had it... What kind of CUCV are you looking for? Lance

Now, be nice..... You could likely throw a rock into south Sandy Pond while standing on one of he and Amy's MVs. He was out ice fishing with their mule last week. Lance

If you sweet talk doghead he might be willing to bring a deuce or his M819 over and pop you out. He lives near Sandy Pond. Lance

Welcome to the web site. You can drive out of most any GL site. Many vehicles are towed into the lot so the delivering unit has a way to get the driver home. Some vehicles are towed in because they haven't been used in a long time and so they get towed rather than performing the necessary...

Considering that the US military has equipped hundreds of thousands of vehicles with winches over at least 11 decades I suspect that they have a pretty good idea of what size winch is appropriate. Keep in mind that the deeper a vehicle is mired the higher the line pull needed to extract it. As...

Welcome aboard. Lance

NonRechargeable Maybe here? Lance

The only challenge you may run into is that "civilian" bolts tend to have a shorter threaded shank than the original GI bolts. You may find that 12" bolts don't have enough thread to tighten the nuts without a high stack of washers. If you check the length carefully you may want to order 11"...

Years ago I started putting the unit markings of units I had served in on my MVs. As an indicator of how far the Army's strength has been drawn down during the last 35 years, every single battalion and brigade I served in during the 25 year part of my career spent as an infantryman has been...

Hello John The only drawback to properly maintained M809 brakes is that they are single circuit brakes and any major leak will cause the complete loss of braking. The issues with the M900 trucks was that the brakes are sized to stop a fully loaded truck and to do it from maximum speed...

Good looking shelter. Here's some info that may help. There have been a number of manufacturers and some of the internal framing has varied based on the intended application and where the penetrations were but Gichner probably made most of them. Here is a link to their site. GICHNER...
