Texas state sales tax is %6.25, so you were overcharged by %1.85, not worth the hassle to fight. What that really means is that you have pre paid your taxes and you will only need to pay for the registration and title fees at the tax office

GOOD LUCK! That is a matter between you and GL, the Tax Assessor/Collector for you county will take NO pity on your over taxation issues. Ask me how I know...

Red Kool-Aid?

The one I used has worked well for me so far: NAPA fuel filter/water separator pt#3123

Here are some photos of faded Avroe I found on my hard drive. The first one I took in the DRMO yard at Ft. Sam Houston, the next three are a truck I saw on GL and the last one is MY M109A3 with a pink fender touchup

I hope that M151 is not a leaker!

No, his daughter added up the total weight of HIS trucks for a math project, and that is the number she came up with...

The Avroe brand CARC turns pink in the sun. A week seems quick, perhaps it was not mixed properly. I have a good friend who was in a similar situation in 1990, they had 30 days to paint EVERY vehicle in the unit tan, everyone had to do a turn on the flight line painting with whatever they...

Good to hear, in a way...

Was it an M35 or an M109? I have an M109 un accounted for, though it is HIGHLY unlikely to be him...

Me neither!

They may also not be legal in your state! Texas requires fenders that cover the tires, with no more than 1" of tread showing, on vehicles built after a specific date (1960 I think???), that MAY apply to trailers too. I have a friend who runs an inspection station, I will ask him and report back.

Thanks, I am a bit of a TQ (Trailer Queer):) These opinions are from measuring, reading the TM, owning a few and looking at trailers and photos of trailers on GL, please don't take them as the Gospel, I may be completely wrong!

Here are some more

Here is an M101A2, with an A2 axle, with HMMWV wheels and tires. A tight fit...

My "Crunchy" is in that photo, upside down hangin' on for dear life...

I installed the shock in my trailer and MAN what a PITA! The trailer now stops smooth and straight, and I am happy, but I don't ever want to do that job again! It took me and Buckmaw to get everything back together, three hands and some cussing...

I THINK Texas law requires the safety chains to be attached to the frame/bumper/receiver housing, not the hitch itself. Required or not I think that is the safest way so they will catch the trailer if the hitch breaks. I have seen several of those raised, slide in pintle hitch adapters twisted...

That would look like this one, if it had HMMWV wheels

I got mine from eBay, search "lunette lock", mine is made by Blaylock
