    FYI Secure your FMTV's fuel tanks to help prevent fuel theft

    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.

    An interesting comment I heard from deep inside Ukriane

    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...

    Hi Guys, I am looking at all of the 1/2" air lines on my truck. Looks like they need replacing. Anyone have a source for reasonably priced lines? Thought about buying a crimper, do a few, then re-sell on Ebay : )

    Steyr 12m18 have 2 or 3 axle air lockers, according to an owner.

    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.
