Joel - I have no doubt that you can squeeze one onto a U-Haul trailer. I'm just saying be careful when using absolutes like "always" and it still doesn't mean the U-Haul car trailers are the most appropriate choice for these vehicles.
Always, huh? I can assure you it very much won't "always" fit. With the Goodyears I'd say it barely fits based on my last haul. My first one had BFG Baja's on it and it definitely did not fit like it was supposed to.
If it was a matter of always adequately fitting, I suppose there'd be a good...
Search for "Humvee" and it's one of 3 items they offer specific to that search term.
http://www.sportsmansguide.com/product/index/new-us-military-issue-humvee-cover?a=1850746
They offer it in green, which is the M1035 ambulance top pictured that extends from the windshield to the very rear and...
Just to confirm what you're asking, you have a Hummer H1 wagon (hard top from windshield to very back) and want to know how to turn it into a configuration similar to the mil trucks?
If you need the top only (without bows), Sportsmans Guide is selling new tops for $100 with a choice of a green M1035 ambulance top (full top to the rear) or the standard camo top with exposed rear.
I know that people have towed their newly acquired trucks home via U-Haul trailers and while some will say that it "barely" fits, I would say that it's not the best idea. I did it myself and wouldn't do it again. The 7000# rated trailer is the gross weight and it says that the max vehicle weight...
I Google'd "soda blast carc" and it gave me a number of results-with several results pointing to here and on the G.
It appears the results say that it either works marginally well, or not very good at all.
Just curious, but have you tried just hitting it hard with a pressure washer? It'll certainly knock loose paint off and should do so without affecting what's adhered good.
I hate being "that guy" that responds by telling you to check the TM, but I seem to be having issues posting screek shots of the pages. All of the info is located in 9-2320-280-34 in chapter 14 - "Special Purpose Bodies".
This is located for free download here on the website.
I'm writing this as a newbie myself to the whole auction process. I've had other mil vehicles in the past, but they've all be private purchase. I think to be armed with knowledge beforehand will save you grief down the road so I've answered your questions as well as added my .02 cents in...
Mike- same thing happened to me. I went to my account on govplanet when I was approaching the 60 day mark since auction. It turns out that it cleared the day before - I actually called CS to confirm what I was seeing. I never did get an email with confirmation - I think it just pays to be...
Gents - I've been flipping through the TM's and have found that the information is great, but it's not exactly helping me out with diagnosing my particular problem. So I'm hoping that I can get some input from you before going on a wild goose chase and throwing money at parts that might not...
The demil code for vehicles considered to be armament carriers prevents them from being auctioned. A DRMO friend I have told me that he keeps them to the side of his lot and they're eventually picked up for destruction in Anniston, AL. So how many Armament carriers versus non-armament? I don't...
