    What have you done to your FMTV or LMTV today

    Came out nice! I've made three identical to that (two for trucks ands one on my M1082) and all totaled still haven't come close to the coin people ask for the OEM crane. LOL

    A Hens Tooth Up For Auction

    Oh any truck *can* be made to run again. With deep enough pockets. ;)

    A Hens Tooth Up For Auction

    Seems high unless someone got in there to do an inspection on it. It's tagged as "does not run" and the listing seems to back that up. I recall one sold here in Texas a few years back (may have been Bantha) went for $30K as a runner on eBay. But people do get stupid...

    What is this?

    With the right adaptor(s) I don't see why not. But at the end of the day they are little more than a crappy sounding drive-in movie speaker. :)

    A Hens Tooth Up For Auction

    Yeah, that's the one I was thinking of up thread.

    Radiant Floor Heat

    Yeah, I know. But it's still the same $40 item from Home Depot being sold for 10x that. And it's not even being sold as surplus from <insert_point_of_compass_scalpers_here>

    What have you done to your FMTV or LMTV today

    On my todo list. Useless added weight and hardware.

    A Hens Tooth Up For Auction

    I never saw it out there. I dropped the trailer Thrus and came back into town. It had been out there on it's own with roaming dogs, drunks, stoners, meth heads, etc for four days...

    A Hens Tooth Up For Auction

    Speaking of hens teeth... The house across from mine became a rental two years ago. Nice guys from San Antonio who transferred to corpus moved in. Father, two sons (one ex-Army on Marine). All hard working dudes. When the pandemic hit full swing, they got a chicken at the bequest of one of...

    not good I take it....

    Pretty sure BAE was able to find worse for less. My 2008 has worst rubber in it than my 1998.

    Buying My First - Plan It To Be A Beyond The RV Crowd RV

    And fyi: if you end up titling it as an motorhome, weight (CDL status) won't matter Motorhomes are except from weight restrictions in most states if I'm not mistaken.

    Buying My First - Plan It To Be A Beyond The RV Crowd RV

    Well the good news is that there are no shortage of the 5-ton and old duce shop vans. I can already tell by the mudflaps that at least at some point the price was 2-3x what it can be found for elsewhere ;)

    Buying My First - Plan It To Be A Beyond The RV Crowd RV

    Well you can get in the ballpark with an M9xx or M185 shop van weight. *edit: that would be ~18000-19000 GVW The title/OEM weight will of course not take into account some factors there. The only way to get it correct is a trip to the CAT scales . They are located...

    M1082 Air Brake Valves(s) Diagram? Midland/Haldex

    On the M1082 trailer there is a valve going into the air tank. It's not like the setup on the trucks, obviously. It has a single "Supply" inlet (the second is capped) which is fed by service air and a "Control" inlet that t's off to emergency and the brakes. There is...

    Expeditions, adventures or just a campout

    Sad story. And to make it worse, we'll have nothing to turn in when the buy back comes. No money for us I guess... :(

    Expeditions, adventures or just a campout

    That sucks. I lost all of my guns and ammo to a tragic boating accident. No guns here, nope...
