    832 dolly for containers

    I was afraid of that, several people have stated that the dolly sets are not very stable on the road. I am trying to figure out a way to tow an "RV" behind my deuce. I want something that is capable of being towed just about anywhere that the deuce can go. I do not want a m109 for the...

    Has anyone modified a m832 for moving 20ft shipping containers? Or is this idea a great way to waste money and die?

    Greetings from middle Georgia

    Welcome from North Atlanta area. My advice is to make sure you have enough land before buying your first MV, somehow they multiply quickly! My father was a helicopter mechanic during Vietnam, I wish he was still with us as he would love this addiction!

    I'm "stinky"

    I was in the auto industry for almost 20 years. My favorite is when I was with Lexus, they had the large SUV the LX470. This thing had everything, including mirrors that tilt down when you back up. The good thing about the mirrors was that after 4-5 years they gave up and would lock in the...

    How is your winter?

    I left Ohio to get a way from the cold weather and the cold x-wife, not sure which had more ice involved. I have been in Georgia for 10 years now, after this winter I am ready to learn Spanish and move to Florida.

    OD Addict looking for support.

    Galdron - I would offer to help but I don't think it would work, I was one of the guys bidding on that truck also! No, I didn't NEED it either, but I really WANTED it. I am glad to see that it went to a good home, enjoy it and I hope to see you in it at a rally for us SE SS'rs. :grd:

    How to get it home?

    I will now through my 2 cents in. When you hire someone to tow your truck home, contract it or verify somehow that they are going to tow it! I contracted to have my 2 deuces trailered to me, only to find out about 10 minutes before arrival that the transporters decided to drive them to me...

    Soft Top Field Expedient Emergency Repair???

    Do you have the winter cover for the grill? I am in Buford, not sure how far away you are. I can loan you a top and grill cover for the trip, if you can not get one in time. I have soft tops on my deuces, and an extra winter grill cover. I am from the north, and I hate to see someone freeze...

    Tanks etc from Ft Knox

    I can not believe this, I was at Benning today picking up a M105 trailer. The sad part is I went through the Armor School when it was at Knox. I was in the same training unit as another fellow Steel Soldier member Myothersanm1. How did I mis this?

    Scavenging Fuel - Can a Deuce Do It?

    To answer the fuel station question, here is the info. Fuel tanks fill ports are open tubes under the caps and of around a 4" diameter, they have an overfill protection system consisting of a type of flapper valve. All UST, underground storage tanks, have vents also. You will see a 2-3"...
