    M116A3/101A3 parking brake lever adjustment

    What to do with old Armasafe batteries?

    Armasafe has an extremely over priced battery charging system that is one of the best I ever saw. Let you do 6 batteries at a time. I found one in the corner of 173 Abn, 3159 Arty motor pool. After listening to the Armasafe guy, I tried it out. Everyone laughed at me. Dead is dead. I must say...

    What to do with old Armasafe batteries?

    Obtain an AGM maintainer, connect it to the dead battery. The maintainer will say "Battery is flatlined". Obtain a GOOD agm battery and connect the two batteries IN PARALLEL. (positive to positive, negative to negative). Reconnect the maintainer. This time the maintainer will see voltage...

    What to do with old Armasafe batteries?

    Take em to a scrap yard and ask what they will give for them. Here in Germany, I can eat lunch for a week or longer on what I could get for them.

    One of the few times I had a problem like this with the Skytrack, (please keep in mind, this was 2004?, and I am old and forgetful) was in the boom head, a small circuit card. It gets wet and then shorts out. Its not hard to fix if I remember right. There is a small box there with 3? 4? cables...

    What's the best way to get rid of the asbestos in an M934?

    Well, first you need to know if there is asbestos in it. Not all have it, and I only know the very old vans fairly well. I saw a repair facility in Germersheim that removed the asbestos. It used a CARC paint booth and the "Zoot Suit's" used for CARC painting, to remove it. I also saw a newer...

    Not everyone is drunk here at night. But that is the general reason they are on the trucks. To give people more time react when you approach trucks at night.

    Old photos of 5 ton trucks - M813, M923

    When we deployed the 6/3 ADA Patriot Bn to K-Town in 1986, I had two multi pack boxes full of the Delineators to install on the vehicles before I could issue them. Hundreds and hundreds of them. I had a team of two people who installed every item available at the time of issue, on each truck...

    Hydraulic repair Trailer TM * pics added*

    That's what I was going to write. Back in WOC school, we had a 3 day course on several "Tool Kits", and the HISTRU was one of them we all had to make two hoses. And that tool seems to ring a bell as a larger hose flaring tool.

    Has anyone gutted a N3135 regulator?

    I did just look at one of my regulators, it has a rather "soft" potting material, it could be silicone based, I have no idea how you would go about de-potting something like that. Try asking @peapvp as this is something he might be able to shed some light on.

    Nothing has changed in K-Town since you left. In fact, with the Ukraine war, the tempo has been stepped up.

    This month was hard. Changed my vote twice. Then decided to vote in a day or two. Then decided if I didn't vote now, I might forget. This getting old crap, is getting old. So, I let the grand kids help me. Master Jeff stepped up to the plate.
