    EM pulse and the deuce, will it survive?

    Heh, I still remember the multiple posts about "Mr. Positive" over at the M715Zone, lol. That was great stuff and I got a lot of laughs out of it. If any of you guys get some time and want a good story, pop over to the M715Zone.com and search for Barrman's posts on Mr. Positive. We have...

    My turn... :popcorn:

    Older Humvee Cannot ID

    Ugh, looks like a HMMWV someone "civilianized" as a cheaper alternative to buying an H1. They probably removed all the military data plates in an effort to make it look like the more expensive model.

    Winch line questions

    Another bad thing about synthetic winch rope is it's lack of abrasion resistance. Most of the rock crawlers I know replace their winch rope every year due to abrasion and exposure to the sun. I don't it would be very cost effective on a MV, especially considering how most are used somewhat...

    Older Humvee Cannot ID

    Is it a HMMWV or a Hummer H1?

    M880 Project, Begining

    Be careful with the 435. As I understand, the NP203 uses the same size and spline shaft for the input but it is a different length. If your Parts Manager was working during the era of the D & W series trucks, he should have all the info you need but don't hesitate to ask here either.

    M880 Project, Begining

    Looks like you are headed in the right direction. Make sure that NP435 will mate to a NP203, otherwise you will have to either disassemble the 435 to swap in a different tailshaft and transfer case adaptor, swap to another NP435 or use a NP208, NP205, or NP241 transfer case and lose the full...

    Gwinnett Sheriff's SWAT M114 video

    Pantera? Noise? You have no taste, lol! :razz:

    Gwinnett Sheriff's SWAT M114 video

    Yes, excellent choice of music. I really miss Pantera. R.I.P. Dimebag.

    Gwinnett Sheriff's SWAT M114 video

    Agreed. The "Police with APCs" discussion has already happened at least once and if you want to revisit it, go post in one of those threads. Let's not insult WGT by polluting every one of his threads with this tedious topic.

    Help with armor identification

    True, but MOWAG vehicles were built by a separate company originally and the one's built by General Dynamics had several unique variations. Also there are several generations of the Pirahna which have very different hull designs while the majority of the General Dynamics vehicles use the...

    Looking for 3 s-250 shelters

    I believe there is one here in Virginia for sale in the classifieds.

    Just a little ticked off.....

    Nah, around my house, and it seems with our Government, the squeaky wheel gets some duct tape, lol. :-D

    Help with armor identification

    I think it is a MOWAG Grizzly. I believe the Coyote was an 8x8 version. It's a part of the rather large family of vehicles based off the MOWAG Piranha of which General Dynamics of Canada produced the LAV-25 for the USMC as well as the Bison, and several other variants. General Dynamics now...

    Just a little ticked off.....

    I don;t understand how your account was lost and someone signed up under your old name. Even if you were somehow lost, the posts would still be in place and the username could not be used again. I don't think it is possible for someone to take over an old account unless they signed on with...

    Found German tank

    Yes this was posted at least a year or so ago. I haven't seen any updates on it's restoration though. Probably stuck in some bureaucratic red tape.

    PLS rims

    Stazworks makes great rims for offroading but I would never use them on a heavy truck. I don't think they are DOT approved either.

    Some engine questions for you guys restoring V100/V150's

    Just a note about the spacer kit to avoid confusion. The Mopar Performance spacer set is the only thing available to the automotive market for swapping distributors. This spacer allowed racers running a B series engine (350, 361, 383 or 400) to be able to run a RB series distributor. This was...

    4 humvee wheels/tires on ebay for $270

    I'd love to have them but the shipping costs more than what it's worth to me and I have more pressing priorities at the moment. Nothing like being in debt with no job, lol.

    Spotted...

    I agree it is a bit sad to see a rare M37 bed used on a bobbed Deuce. It does look good though. Almost as good as Miltrucks' bobber with the M726 bed.
