    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    If you change the seals in the rims, be sure to wire brush and clean the daylights our of the area where the seal seats. I took it to the tire shop and had them do 4 wheels, two were still bleeding off, but slower. Took it back, stayed and watched and they had not done a real good job on...

    PNW Info Thread!

    Scott that was the same number issue that I had when I licensed the 3 M1102 trailers. They had a 4 digit serial number and one of the trailers, there were 7 other trailers already registered with the same number. 3 of which came up stolen. The lady at the license desk at the county was a...

    I haven't tried it yet and of course no one at DOL ever said anything about it. But it looks like it will work for our single axle small trailers. There is a gross weight limit on it.

    Yup! That is the one. We may be able to license the small jeep and humvee trailers under this one. I usually don't tow those trailers more than twice a year.

    Hammer, you are right. Unfortunately this title request is for Title in doubt. I don't doubt the history of this vehicle, but since it does not have a state title yet, it has to go through the process. Which is, go to county, they give referral to State Patrol, SP verify's VIN number (our...

    It would be interesting to get a copy of that email. And see who is making that decision. It looks like you may be stuck in the VIN, Serial number morass. I have been having a go around in WA on a 91 M923A2 and the vehicle inspector at the State Patrol told me that they don't register...

    Nevada - 5 ton's license plates pulled by DMV

    This is an interesting thread and while it only applies to NV, it goes to prove that things can get worse in licensing requirements. I am a WA MV owner and still needing to get provisional inspection from the WSP for Serial number identification on a 91 M923A2.

    What have you done to your JEEP today

    This was the first time that they were lined up like this. The 53 M38A1, I have owned for 30 years, having bought it at auction from a rural fire department. Except for the bumper unit numbers, it is an original, non restored vehicle. All of the vehicles in that picture except the 42 are...

    What have you done to your JEEP today

    Problem is that I have 6 other vehicles that run and it is more fun to drive them, than to work on them.

    What have you done to your JEEP today

    Wade, you are shaming me into putting the M38 back together. The body has been standing verticle in the carport for about 4 years now. Have a rolling frame, need wire harness, new tires, and finish body work and paint. Maybe this spring.

    sorry, it was pouring rain and I left the camera at home, probably with the wallet that I couldn't locate that morning. Finally about half way through the day, my wife called and told me that I had left my wallet behind. I tore the house apart for an hour, not finding it. She had picked it up...

    Mission accomplished. Action was a bit slow, but got in some good conversation and time with old friends. Had the M886 as our sole MV for this event.

    What have you done to your JEEP today

    You are a very fortunate man. If I put my jeep hood on the dining room table, I wouldn't have to worry about turkey, probably ever again. Happy Thanksgiving.

    I am sure that we would. Usually what happens is that we hang back, so that people that have tables inside, can get their stuff carried into the building, then about 0900 or so, the front lot is cleared and we move the MV's in for display. I will let them know that we have a few and go from...
