First four digits tell you the Federal Supply Classification - 2320 is wheeled vehicles, 2330 is trailers, etc. You can look up the standard Federal Supply classifications here > http://everyspec.com/FSC-CODE/ Next two digits are where it is made (00 and 01 are USA) and the rest is a unique...

Please post the source of the article so we don't have to search. Most businesses have liability insurance and Durhamtown is no exception and I'm sure their insurance will delay paying till all the appeals have been heard, which could be several years. DT's insurance rates will be going up in...

Actually it is a MICO brake part, not 'micro' (TM is wrong). It acts as a one way valve when setting up the wrecker to be stationary. Operator error in pushing the brakes real hard and hitting the switch. Problem there came when it was time to release the brakes, as it took MORE pressure on...

So, why do I use 10 ga extension cords? Because i can't find anyone who makes 8 ga ones and sells them locally! This is a re-hash of the AC/DC argument of over a century ago. DC voltage is heavily dependent on wire size, AC not nearly as much. New 12 volt car batteries should read about 13.5...

That sounds like low voltage, no load should be closer to 27 volts and that compressor should only drop it down to 24.5-25 volts on startup. If it's a new unit from Dometic, contact them! I have a small (CC40) unit and so far no problems.

Check your voltage when it tries to start. The compressor starting draw is high and I think the Dometic supplied 12/24 V cable is a bit flimsy (IMHO) at 16 ga wire. The fuse in that cable is rated at 8 amps for 12 volts or 96 watts, the higher the voltage of the batteries , the lower the...

The older style gasoline burners (M-2) are prime candidates for conversion to propane, the MBU's not so much, but the older MBU's (V-100) can be upgraded to the new type (V-103 with wider heat range, runs better in high ambient temps) . Old MBU's have a black oval on the control panel, new or...

Since the military does not use those frequencies, you will have some trouble finding a single military antenna that will be suitable, and probably none out-of-the-box. Modifying military antennas to cover specific bands has been done But you will need matching circuits to keep the SWR at a...

Shipping one radio is really expensive - they are not called 'boatanchors' for nothing - but shipping a 20 foot CONEX full brings the cost per piece way down. Just something to keep in mind.

Used to be that 'pvt jarhead' in Reno had completely refurbished ones for $400, but he went 'out of business' a couple of years ago. Fully equipped PRC-77's are approaching $400 (w/antennas, handsets, etc.). Mosr of the old stuff is now in private hands and does not get sold very often. And...

Parallel is correct!

The thing to remember about AGM batteries is that they cannot stand sustained high voltages! Most chargers allow the voltage to increase as the battery gets close to full charge (think over 15 V). AGM's are very sensitive to that - anything close to steady over 14.5 volts will kill them...

Kaiser Jeep ended on or before 1970, then it was "General Products Division of " and later became "AMG" about 1971. I know because I have deuces with all three different 'manufacturer' markings.

Here's a picture I took of Neil going through the river near Graves Mountain. It appeared in a 2011 issue of "Army Times".

I have it on my calendar as well. Maybe I'll have my mini MKT ready by then and I can bring a reduced version of the wash-up trailer and help Micro with the cleanup.

Post pictures. They 'might' be for the 105 trailer, but that is just a guess.

Got home about 1515, trailer parked in back of house, shop van refrigerators plugged into shore power. John Peck's trailer (with the two civvy jeeps on it blew a tire three miles from the club compound, so he left for there to get it changed out and on to the MVCSC compound. Further updates...

It was going to Jon's father-in-law, who lives just the other side of I-20.

Delay leaving this morning. We were hooking up the shop van/pantry to the first trailer when we had a sudden brake failure. Hole in the long line between the hydrovac and the middle axle. John and Marty have gone to the club compound to rob one off of one of the deuce frames I own. We first...

Rain is coming through tonight and in the morning.
