Hey all, late posting tonight, but good news. I did get them lose, adjusted and reinstalled. Dieselmeister, you are correct, if I had the right torch all the paint would have been burnt off. I only had the propane and Butane bottle that one uses for copper pipe soldering. It barely got stuff...

Hey all, We had the M1123 out for a drive for the very first time yesterday, put about 30 miles on it (after getting Progressive insurance confirmed, great rate BTW). The truck drove great and better than we expected, but steering was a b*tch. The tires squealed like I was driving through a...

No harm done, don't apologize if you don't understand the issue. Maybe in the circles you are used to, or with really good friends, great. But in a forum where others want to offer help and advice and you're the new guy, read the room first before you end your sentence with "Chill bro". Not...

I've bought a M1123, Marine truck from Yermo in March. Had it delivered in May and just got the SF97. It did not read "Off Road Only", and I took it to the local Treasurers' Office, and received license plates and registration, no problem. The title will be in the mail in 4 to 6 weeks. No issues...

I believe you have the privilege of getting free advice and personal opinions from years and years of experience here. No reason to start being rude, especially if you are counting on getting more of the before mentioned. Start recognizing your standing amongst others and think how to respond...

Just out of curiosity and because I am a noob, how often does one need to take a T-case out? And what for? Is this something I should prepare myself for in the future (removing the T-case, not the access hole)? Thanks!

Hmmmm, this would give me pause to think. Why did you have to use the jumper box? Are the batteries draining, or bad? Do you have a parasitic drain? Whichever it is, I would concentrate getting the issue fixed rather than spending hundreds of $$ on that pack and having to rely on it.

Like I said, the typical wheel chair we issued to patient Veterans at the VA has two 24 volt, 400 watt drive motors and some LED lighting. Some more advanced chairs have a sit to stand feature that raises the Veteran to eye level, those electrical actuators would have anywhere from 120 to 200...

That is a 24 V power connector to some accessory. I wouldn't use it for jump starting as it's not rated for that amperage. If you ever look at power wheelchairs, they have the same connectors (and yes, they are all 24 volt power chairs, industry standard). But only to supply power to run 24 volt...

Makes a ton of sense. Good to know it is probably a real tool. Still missing manufacturers ID.

Hmmmm, I imagine it's easy to counterfeit a tool like that and slap a label on it with the NSN and a barcode. There are no other markings on my tool, such as a manufacturer name, part number or anything else. I've seen thousand of tools used in the military, they all just have a different feel...

I'll try to weld a bracket between the two side to keep it from spreading, or install some reinforcement. Consider doing the same if you want to keep using the tool. I did end up using this method found on YouTube: Not as easy as it looks, but it did work :cool::p:D

I figured that. I messaged the seller, and dropped the words "counterfeit tool". Almost offended, he did refund the money and told me to keep the tool as the shipping wouldn't be worth it. That should tell you something. I don't know if it is a counterfeit, but without the bolt it is useless...

Mines' a 1999, so just over 25 years. I believe my wife is in touch with our agency, Farm Bureau. They weren't opposed to it, but needed more info and the title/tags. Now that we have that, hopefully it'll be good to go. I'll keep you updated on rates.

Some more close ups:

I just recently purchased a tool on FleaBay, it arrived two nights ago and I have been having a night mare of a time. The force of the large sprocket has pushed against the worm gear and then forced the side bracket out, allowing the wormgear and sprocket to jump a tooth, halfway into using it...

I went to the County Treasurer and just under 10 minutes had my plates and the title request filled out. The nice lady behind the counter said I should get it within 4 to 6 weeks. Not a problem at all. I love the rural setting and how helpful city employees still are. Plus, South Dakota is...

Funniest thing, I got home from work yesterday evening and the damn thing was in the mailbox, delivered by Fed EX.... So, off to the DMV this afternoon. Hopefully it won't be much of an issue getting a title and plates. Yeah, the tracker isn't working, and wait times depend much on the...

Wow, that is crazy. Do you have a pick up/release code as well? That is awesomely fast...

Hey all, I've been sitting on my M1123 from Yermo for quote some time now (purchased 3/20/24, released 4/26/24,picked up 5/07/24). It will be 2 months right after the holiday weekend since it was picked up, and yet the GP site still reads no update. What gets me a bit worried is that the 'Sent...
