Definitely
When our wife’s last met, they both had me laughing so hard I had tears in my eyes.
Especially when they were imitating us justifying our latest surplus purchase to them.
Yea.
Keepers both.
I haven’t done a thing to mine.
Haven’t even seen it in 3 weeks.
Temporarily assigned in Northern California with flying and really miss my M1008A1.
My wife sent pics of her driving it.
........made the CUCV withdrawals worse.
JP8 an inferior fuel?!
........Hardly
JP8 is an excellent fuel and has several additives that aren’t available in the civilian world.
Run it all day long without worry.
Not around here they don’t.
And I see you missed the point.
At this point, all the “scientific evidence” you are clambering for wouldn’t matter.
Complain for complainings sake
Installed new rubber on my tan M101A2.
Identical to the ones on my M1008A1
Cooper all-terrain
Stock size
Load Range E
Trailer definitely rides smoother with the new rubber.
Outside antenna is white, inside antenna is black.
Did not paint anything.
The pole is galvanized and no paint either.
Would love to paint the shipping container and antenna pole OD.
That would require at least 10 gallons........@ $70 a gallon for the good stuff.
Can’t justify that expense.
Have you looked at all the information on SS related to the “Death Wobble”?
Threads and videos?
It’s not going away on it’s own and will continue to get worse.
Regardless, you’ll need new parts.
Might as well start stocking up now.
I do but not for online posting.
Basic install.
Very easy and the 30’ pole I anchored to a shipping container.
Doesn't matter on interior antenna placement as long as it’s inside.
Great signal inside no matter where it’s placed.
Worth every cent.
I use new trans oil, not used.
Nice sunny and hot summer day for application.
New wood soaks it up like a sponge.
Old Chevy bed trailer we found on our property.
It was upside down in a small ravine and trees growing through the rotted bed.
Installed new flooring, wiring, lights, tires...
Unfortunately the Hook pilots will get disciplined because they know the effects of their rotorwash and should have known the crowd was too close.
Rotorwash from a chinook is over 100 mph.
Initiate a go-around and radio that crowd is too close.
That simple.
I used to fly that type (MH-47E)...
I use new Transmission fluid to treat my trailers wood.
Last a very long time (years) before needing additional treatment.
No it does not make wood slick.
Plus the red tint makes it look great.
I knew you weren’t complaining and had factored in replacement parts cost.
Needs fixed before it can work and earn money.
Definitely a Killer trailer at a bargain price.
System installed today.
Before,.......not a hint of service.
Now.......full four bars of signal.
The 30’ pole with the antenna attached helped without a doubt.
Well worth the $400 system cost!
For the amount of trailer and capability your getting, it’s still a bargain.
Even with lottery money, I wouldn’t own one.
Extremely cool trailer, but just too big for fun.
Most never do see the problem until there’s a problem.
Fram Filters suck
Go cheap......Get cheap.
I'm not risking an engine worth thousands on a cheap filter.
You get what you pay for.
Good Luck.
It’s been discussed on SS before.
I have also have witnessed it when a friend didn’t take advice not to use a Fram filter on a Diesel engine.
Bits of filter media clogged oil passages on a Duramax.
Almost destroyed engine. Was shut down before seizing.
He cut open filter and paper inside it...
