Now that I know who Horatio is (thank you Google) I realize that he was there too. A friend of Reloader's, we were just calling him Homer. I thought it odd at the time, but now it makes sense. Here is a picture of him leaning on the trailer, we didn't get a shot of him sitting on it, sorry...

And no, there was no alcohol involved in this tale of wonder, not one solitary drop! And the shooting was done down on our range with a suitably safe backdrop. There is a difference between fun and foolish. Cheers

Well, boys being boys... Today we (me, Sarge, Pawnshop, Reloader64, and my younger son) were gathered at the farm dining on grilled beast. Pawnshop had his shot trailer with him, the holes came up as a topic of conversation and shortly we were gathered around looking at them saying clever and...

Thanks guys. And Dave, if you look at the pictures you will see that I do have all the grenade boxes after all. After searching around trying to find some new ones, turns out they were in a box in the shop the whole time, just hadn't looked in that one for a while. Doh!! :roll: You are...

Also stock on the Marine M813's with ISO beds like mine. As has been said, it is for the 14.00's. Apart from carrying your spare around, it is also apparently a good place for #1 son to sleep while waiting for those early morning Scout parades to begin! He probably wouldn't be able to do that...

Well, the glacier moved ever so slightly, but it moved. The V is running smoothly now, all the mechanicals are done, redone, tested, retested, nothing more to do there. We took her out for a run of about 10 miles a couple of weeks ago, the day before my son shipped out to San Diego for...

Done! :razz:

I would be very interested in a pair of the mounting brackets. [thumbzup] Cheers

From experience, use a headset in the 813! It is a bloody loud truck. I have comfortably driven the M925 (and its brothers) with just earplugs, much quieter truck. Cheers

Thanks 73m819, I rooted through my library until I found that book, it must be where I got my info from. For comparison, attached is a picture of Sarge's M1003, which is basically a MAN KAT used by the USAF as a support vehicle, along with M1001/2, when they had the GLCM fielded. For a cargo...

I was quite happily radio-less when Pawnshop showed me the PRC-77. Says me, frowning- "Yes, I remember those, they were heavy and people shot at you more because of the antenna". Says Pawnshop - "Indeed! But now you have an entire truck to carry it in, and folks usually don't shoot at you over...

M-A-N, stands for Maschinenfabrik Augsburg-Nurnberg. In 1989 GMC and MAN teamed up to compete for the Army PLS contract. If I recall correctly only one prototype was built, and from the lights that looks like it. If so, as 73m819 said, it is powered by a Detroit Diesel 8V92TA, with an...

No problem. [thumbzup] Here is a picture of one of my 1009's. I know Marine trucks don't have bridge plates, but I like them and wanted one on one of my vehicles, so it's on there! Semper Fi, brother. .

Welcome aboard. There seem to be quite a lot of cross-breed M101s, probably because they are relatively light and easy to swap beds on. If you had an A3 with a bad bed, and stuck a good A2 bed on it, to which the data plate is attached.... There are a bunch of us with M101s in/around Austin...

For a 1009, you should actually show 3 without the trailer, 4 with. :lol: Cheers

My V100 came back from VN. It is documented as being delivered to the 720th MPs at Long Binh in 1968, and going through a depot level refit in Saigon in 1969. No record of it after that until the mid-70s when the Marines had it for guarding "sensitive national assets". According to the...

If you are not familiar with tire/wheel sizes, the 21 at the end of 16.00R21 indicates that it goes on a 21" diameter rim. Deuce rims are 20". Apart from that, 16.00 tires are too wide to seat on the Deuce rims safely. Cheers

Here is a picture of the jack/stabilizer (the manual refers to it as both, and it is used for changing the trailer tires as well as leveling. Pretty cool!). Thought I would go ahead and post it for Pawnshop since his trailer is parked out at my place. This is my trailer, Pawnshop's doesn't...

This panel is directly to the left of your regular light switch. Make sure the right one is in the up position for the lights to work. In 'All Off' none of them will work. The toggle is spring loaded, you pull it out slightly to clear the lock, then flip it up. It is all explained in the -10...

As a Unimog owner and experienced trailer puller, I would not tow that trailer behind the Mog without trailer brakes either. My 2cents There are folks on here who will say "I pull my M105 at 100 mph behind my Mini Cooper....", but I don't want to be on the road when they try to stop! Cheers
