    Air Brake Protection Valve leaking/venting

    Same problem here, Haldex parts fixed the problem & stopped the big time air leakage. Now the brakes work like they are supposed to.

    Won Another M1101

    It will tow nose down, that is why I say to drop the tailgate on the trailer to see clearly behind you. Your trailer lights won't match a civy vehicle, so put a set of horror freight magnetic lights on the trailer to match a civy truck. The tub is aluminum, but the stubs that hold the landing...

    Won Another M1101

    #1 Standard size that will match your pintle ring. Don't use a small one for obvious reasons. #2 EUC is no longer needed for the M-1101 or M1102 #3 I pulled 3 M-1102's behind a Toyota Tacoma (separately, of course) with no problems for 300 + miles with no problems. You should have no pulling or...

    M35a2 - Did not serve - Is painting with military colors disrespectful

    No clue, but the head clerk told me that if I was going to change anything from original, the title would be for off road only. No business signs, no repainting different colors, nothing. Makes no sense to me......

    M35a2 - Did not serve - Is painting with military colors disrespectful

    On another note, the State of Florida requires the owner of a newly bought military vehicle to remain military in paint & other equipment. If you repaint in different colors, add signage or change up the truck, you will not get an on road title & the truck is now off road only. If you do not...

    Grilling Tires.. Mmmm mmmm good

    You will probably have to remove the backside of the brake assembly & cut it off with a cutting wheel if you can get to it without damaging the spindle!

    LMTV M1081 Title Now Transfered

    After waiting since the end of April when I purchased my M1081 to get the title, J Wade made it happen a few weeks ago. Major Thanks To Him! Today, I went to the tag agency to transfer the Florida title from GP to me. The lady who waited on me was trying very hard to make everything work as...

    CUCV Long Term storage container

    I keep a 40' Hi-cube ISO container in the side yard here in Florida to store everything in. Steel shelves floor to ceiling optimizes floor space & you can walk in & find stuff quickly without digging thru stuff on the floor. Mice can't get in & damage stuff, humidity is dealt with by the factory...

    Govliq auction, i won it, then revisit and its got 19 hours added and active?

    Govliq auction, i won it, then revisit and its got 19 hours added and active?

    An additional hour or so due to bids being place & pushing out the end time, but not a 24 hour reset just because they feel like it & can. They should close the auctions that were reopened, award the lots to the winners as of 4:00 yesterday & operate by the rules that they set in the first...

    Govliq auction, i won it, then revisit and its got 19 hours added and active?

    Yep, same thing for me yesterday. Watched my bids for three days & 10 minutes before the auction ended, lost the signal due to being in the doctors office. At 4:30, I rechecked the site & I had won both items I was pushing hard to win, Happy Days! Now this morning, looking for the confirmation...

    FMTV Leaking Air when brake pedal is pushed

    I went thru the same thing you did to stop the air loss, except that the fine fellows here directed me to the repair parts suppliers & what to look for. Search the threads for the last year or so for any other problems you come up with. Another thing that will give you problems is the diaphragms...
