Nasty gust front with winds up to 90mph
Overturned Semis on Interstate, trees down, power lines down etc.

The Kubota engine and Kohler 7k Generator performed flawlessly.
Fairly quiet too.

Last October I replaced my ignition switch after some troubleshooting. That switch is so fun to change. I first thought it was the DH relay. It was not.
Yesterday I was doing coyote patrol on the ranch and had stopped and started engine several times with long breaks in between.
No big deal...
I haven’t seen any at auction for quite some time now.
Wanting another one and none to be found at auction.
I know there are plenty for sale from individuals, but I prefer mine straight from Military.

Anyone seen...
I would like to see some ideas and solutions you guys have come up with to hold a drink without spilling.
This is for a M1008A1
I know I could do a center console with cup holders and sit it on the seat, but don’t want to lose that space.
Either store bought or hand made or something cool...
1992 UTB M101A2 Box on a M116A2 Frame.
Searched SS with no luck.

Part number came up empty.
Contract number dealt with generators, etc. but no M101A2’s.
Internet was dry also unless I totally missed it.
Closest I could find is Mobil Subscriber...

Picked up a NF-2D at RRAD on Tuesday.
Amazing place.
My first time on the ground there.
It is of course a closed base.
Meaning you have to have a reason to be there or you don't get on, Military ID or not, unless your assigned. More to it than that, but gives you the idea.
Something...
Finally was successful in finding some information on this unit.
It's not a TM and not even the TO that's listed on the NF-2D unit, but this will cover the engine and generator.
Thought I would start a new thread on this since a lot of guys are always looking for a good replacement copper/brass radiator.
Old one went out a while ago and wasn't able to be fixed

Water, fuel, ammo, shelters, wire, telephone poles, etc.
A lot are big and heavy and impossible for most of us to use without a proper tow vehicle. (Yes, those would...
I know there are several companies making these including LMC.
Ive looked at the pictures here and read the threads.
Who makes the best one since GM quit making them?
The guys that have installed them, how are yours holding up?
Install issues?
Does the insulation work as advertised?
Tear...
The last few days here have been rainy, foggy, misty and just plain gloomy.
After some night driving and the stock halogens just not cutting it, I finally ordered a set of Truck-Lite LED 5x7 Headlights.
Been debating getting them for a while, but the last few days have decided it for me...
