I would bet that with the volume of trucks being sold, someone eventually had some sort of accident, even if just a minor one. Then the responding MP's saw that they didn't have a valid registration or tag. And realized everyone driving off post was doing so illegally. And that is the end of...

Yep, that is 100% CB lingo. Ham operators actually know what they are talking about and use the proper terms for stuff. Make some records, contact the FCC and send all the info you have. Enforcement Bureau Fines for those guys usually start at $5000

It is actually pretty common. The CB guy is using an illegal high powered amp. the wires for your speaker act like an antenna and carry the sound to the speakers.

A trick I have learned when dealing with the recoveries for stuff that has been sitting a long time is to take a boat gas tank with a 12v electric pump hooked to it. That way you can bypass all the stock fuel system up to the injection pump or carburetor. No worries about dirty fuel or such.

That was my BN. I was acting BMO at the time before I escaped BAF and got back to the war:-P

Ok guys, here it is right from the horses mouth with the ones going to the fire service. Ones going to LE will have the same requirement, as it comes from the DOD...

As I have said, the set time period rule doesn't apply to items requiring DEMIL. They must be returned. I just called my buddy who used to manage that program for our Sheriffs Office. He said their HMMWV's came with strict instructions that there were not to be sold. They had to be returned, or...

That's the one. They lifted the nose with that giant crane they had at Bagram and set it down on the 870, and we towed up off the runway.

No, it does not depend on the state. The restrictions I am speaking of are Federal, not state. State law can't change them.

Bah. Once at Bagram I put a C-17 on an M870 trailer and towed it off the runway with an M916.

This is only true for vehicles that do not require DEMIL. HMMWV's have further restrictions. My understanding is that LE agencies that get HMMWV's must either return them when finished or DEMIL them.

Strapped. the HMMWV rack is designed to come off and be carried, so strapping works best.

Yep. If you want to weld with 24v the right way. Readywelder.com | There's nothing like it! They make the military pack with a slave cable plug, but you can buy the regular version and add your own slave cable plug for less. We welded a lot of stuff in Afghanistan with them. Plug in, put...

Glad it made it there!

It will work. the friction modifiers in ATF will shorten your IP life if you run pure ATF for a long time. A case mixed in? No big deal. I know a guy who runs pure used/filtered ATF, because he rebuilds transmissions for a living and has a steady free supply. He goes through an IP about every...

Lots of good parts on there that could go to keeping other wreckers on the road.

Test them first. Lots of the Hf magnetic lights are wired incorrectly.

The solenoid is not the only difference in your starter. You will need a whole new 12v starter, the starter on it now is wound for 24v and will not work on 12v. That said, your front battery is its own little 12v system. You can run all your 12v accessories from it with no problems. So for...

I have seen Durabac used with great results. And now they make military colors. Truck Bed Liner
