Well, I had to cancel. The doctors wouldn't let me go. I had my truck all checked out and loaded to go. This will be the first rally I've missed since the horse pasture days at Durhamtown. :(:(:(

There are shirts but I haven't seen one.

Medical issues are still causing me problems. I will now depart Hiawassee Friday morning, but I am still definitely coming.

Have you tried using a flare wrench? They get a much better grip than an open-end wrench. I've used a flare wrench with a piece of pipe over the wrench for more leverage and it popped all of them loose. Otherwise, the cutting and using a six-point socket, as mentioned above, is a great idea.

You can rent portable winches from a lot of tool rental places. Have you checked the parking brake? Sometimes they can cause a problem backing up.

I was offered $12K for my M1030M1 last year. No way - I love that bike. :D

I was planning on leaving Wednesday morning, but a medical problem has interfered. I changed my primitive campsite reservation for Thursday. Assuming the doctors clear me, I'll be there Thursday in my A3 deuce. The truck is mostly ready, but I still have a few things to check. I don't plan...

You can find NOS fuel tanks occasionally on Ebay. You can also line the tank and hope it plugs the leak,

Very nice job!

I've never heard of automatic tire chains on military vehicles, but no reason they wouldn't work. However, that is an expensive option.

Another advantage of duals is if you have a flat on one of the rear 8 tires and not a lot of cargo weight, you can still drive.

Even if you could eventually register the BRDM-2 in California, why would you want to make it your daily driver? It has terrible fuel economy, is very uncomfortable to drive, has very poor visibility, etc. I suspect you stand zero chance of registering a BRDM-2 in California. As Mullaney...

Sorry, I thought you were talking about the backhoe.

If anyone needs a new connection terminal, I have several more than I needed, just PM me. Mine was severely corroded and when I purchased a new terminal strip, they came in a package of 5.

Have you looked in the Case parts book? Case might offer the nut.

I had to wire brush all of the fuse terminals with a brass wire wheel on a Dremel tool, replace all fuses with new and coat fuses and terminals with dielectric grease to make everything work on mine. No electrical problems since. I got the fuses from Expedition Imports.

I drove several M715 and M725 trucks for several years while in the Army for thousands of miles, both on-road and off-road, while overseas. Those trucks are actually very good off-road trucks. Don't assume the transfer case lever is stuck. Every single truck I drove were difficult to get the...

I drive my A3 deuce in the snow every winter, but only when they haven't laid salt down on the road. Driving in the snow isn't that bad. What I hate is driving on ice.

Not original.

One note about the PC625 battery. Fred Hayes, who ran HDT, gave instructions to trim off some of the cooling fins on the side of the PC625 battery to allow fitment of the side cover. However, there is a spacer that holds the side cover away from the battery. I purchased a new nylon spacer...
