The copper/brass radiator I installed was identical to the old one. Everything hooked up with zero issues. Truck stays nice and cool no matter outside temp. Running a 190* thermostat and original 5 blade fan. Only trailers I tow are the M101A2’s. Usually their not loaded heavy, but...

Sounds easy. I’ll never do it, but good to know wiring doesn’t need hacked up.

That looks like it will fit on a uhaul trailer just fine. Easy enough to measure rental trailer width and then look up specs for MV trailer.

Ok It depends on if you want to hack into the stock wiring. I don’t want too, no matter how cheap and easy it is and actually have three brand new spare GP cards. Original one that came with truck is still working perfectly. It’s an investment in the truck. Now if I were on a tight...

It all depends on what PSI of concrete they poured. Most home driveways are probably in the 3500-4000 psi range. 4” is the usual thickness. The PSI can go over 6000, but.....as with anything, it costs more. I specified 6000 PSI (prestressed) in my new home + shop build. Higher inital...

Here are the manufacturers of my two M101A2’s. Not sure how many different ones there are.

I use the chain through the steering wheel all the time. Sure it can be defeated easily, but it takes time. Bolt cutters aren’t the most easily concealed item. Usually, Crooks hate taking a lot of time to steal something. Most thieves will not be initially prepared for cutting the...

I misread your original post. You already know the make and s/n. Guess I need more sleep. If you post most of the s/n, guys here can narrow it down very well. My two are a year apart in manufacture, but completely different makers and s/n’s. Both came from same army unit. With the...

If it’s not legible on the data plate, then it most likely will not be on the SF97. The missing/not legible serial number information is usually stated up front, in the item description. Makes it harder to export if it’s missing or impossible to read. Have you called the auction company and...

Theft problem solved means it doesn’t get stolen in the first place. LoJack shows where the vehicle is. The condition that it will be in is anyone’s guess. Recovery of a stolen vehicle is rarely a 100% happy ending. Crashed, submerged, parts stripped, burned, vandalized (busted windows...

Now that is a maintenance nightmare.......

That is awesome! Looks great. Happy to see the parts saved instead of going to the scrap pile. Big Radials are the best sounding engines ever!!

That’s the beauty of having the tools and supplies for a project. If it doesn’t turn out like you want ......start over. That usually results in some great work. Learn from mistakes or see how a different idea will work. That’s the wonderful thing about the M101A2, it can handle almost...

No Theft problem not solved. Stolen vehicle location solved.

Anyone who has been in aviation long enough knows stupid things happen. Complacency, overconfidence, fatigue, get-home-itis syndrome, etc. are all factors. I was sitting right seat in an MH-47, and after startup, watched the ground crew as they were pulling a MH-60 Blackhawk to the flight...

These are absolutely wonderful units. Wife was impressed how quiet it was and that we had power and comfort when thousands of others were in the dark. Yes I do love it!!!

Had storms roll through last night. Nasty gust front with winds up to 90mph Overturned Semis on Interstate, trees down, power lines down etc. Fired up the Unicor NF2D Light tower. The Kubota engine and Kohler 7k Generator performed flawlessly. Fairly quiet too. Ran like a champ in the...

Why not just carry an extra card?

Exactly!!

The time it’s taking to ask questions and figure out how to bypass a system could be spent actually fixing the system to work as designed. If you particularly want a button for some reason, then disregard. Mine works perfectly, all stock and no buttons or bypass's. Been flawless down to -6*...
