I think Ferro still has the record for the most pulled via a deuce pintle when he used Bella to pull eight loaded 100 ton ballast cars and a locomotive off a barge at the Norfolk railhead.
Best way of curing you of these posts is to put you in charge of the MKT operation next year. Then it will be "Oh NO! It's two months out and I've got so much to get ready, I'll never finish on TIME!!!!"
MJQ-18 is two 10K MEP-003A generators on an M-105 type chassis that is a foot longer than a standard M105. Two MEP-003A without anything else would overload an M-116 trailer. Think about your total weight and what you have to pull it, AND what it will take to stop it safely!
I had to do a similar repair, but used rubber fuel hose and hose clamps. about 2 inches long each slit lengthwise, on the line that had the leak we put two hose clamps side by side on the spot, with the slit 180 degrees away form the hole. On the other line we put the clamps near the ends...
Reservations to Durhamtown, not Clinto. I doubt there are any sites with power, water and sewer left. DT cabins might still be available, and then there is always the primitive campsites.
105 top will not fit a 105 generator trailer because the generator trailer is one foot longer than a cargo trailer (123 inches from front to back). That is why I built the bunk trailer on a 105 generator bed vs using a 105 cargo trailer. YMMV.
Had one several years ago that was dead, CGarbee said he had an electronics wizard, so I got it to him, but have heard nothing since. Really, any inverter that will put out 1200 watts of 28V DC will do the trick as long as it does not get wet and you can modify the output lugs to feed the MBU...
Last ones in any quantity were sold in 2010, then GL lost the contract for vehicles to Gov Planet. Deuces from the Govt are now onsies and twosies per month and usually in scrap auctions.
The main dish is Eastern NC BBQ Pork, and it goes quickly! While not pictured, there was less than three cups left (one of each flavor) of the Apple, Blueberry and Cherry cobblers. About two cups worth of the Peach cobbler, so I may skip it next year and go with half-pans of the Blueberry and...
From TM 10-7310-281-13-P of 17 May 2010, fifth page (including cover):
The MBU has been designed to operate with JP-8 and certain approved diesel fuels.
Only JP-8 or an approved alternate diesel fuel may be used.
TaylorTradingCo had complete two hole injectors a while back at a reasonable price. Several people at the GA Rally bought sets that year. He might still have some.
Only because the road is twisty and narrow, and goes through two towns and a left turn off the 'main' road before you get to Syria, where the action is. It's actually only about 9-10 miles, but you lose cell phone signal around Aynor (key "Deliverance" theme for those who want to stay connected...
