New trend. People are starting to drill holes in fuel tanks to get fuel. Yes, I know, one spark does wonders.
Consider a locking fuel cap. Better yet, a fuel neck cover that locks and something to make it hard to get to the drain plug.
I have been digging deep into the conflict using Youtube and Foreign news sources, including "France 24" and raw Ukraine rebel footage. I heard that the reason that the first Russian Column failed was that their trucks were shod with fake Michelin XMLs. These tires that had the same tread...

Couple of air line questions. What type of valve is pictured here on the secondary tank ? Is it the 2 way check valve or the inversion valve? Looks like it vents excess pressure...
Never thought the Steyr axles looked as substantial as the Rockwells, but an owner told me today that 2 or 3 axles all get air lockers. Odd to have a front axle locker, but ok.
An inexpensive project for your LMTV. Total cost around $24. SMD 5050 strips. A bit of a PITA to thread through frame. Double sided tape worthless. Glue gun is your friend. Do not use RGB lights. They won't be nearly as bright.
Word of caution. Each strip draw around 3 amps. Might want to...
