    M934 Expansible AC

    To tell if the ducts still have the asbestos lining, look for a tightly woven cloth-like material, whitish in color, often with but not always a chalky texture--- if you are not sure, have someone well versed in asbestos take a look or use a test kit available at ace hardware stores (and...

    M934 Expansible AC

    I want to add here that when most of the trucks went in, they capped the heaters off not because of a problem with them but because of asbestos lining in the forward bulkhead ducts..... I have an m447c and an m313 expandable van-- both have asbestos linings in the forward ducts..... I removed...

    Thousands of HMMWV may actually be sold to public; not a rumor

    Bear in mind that the civilian H1 trucks (about 1997 and prior-- I cannot definitively say about after 1997) were classified as class III trucks and therefore were able to skirt a lot of the requirements-- Any civi H1 of that period did not have airbags, collapsible column, etc. (I own an H1...

I confirmed this with chalked index markings on...

    I cannot say about the long wait times, but if there is a discrepancy with your manifest at Lockbourne, simply get on the phone and call either the Lockbourne PD or Ohio State Patrol and file a theft report---- its funny how quickly they can all of a sudden find your missing items when the cops...
