    818 locker install

    I just recovered a USMC M818 with lockers and I love it! I didn't know it had lockers at the time, but I did notice a few things during the trip that seemed odd. 1. I couldn't seem to judge the turns right to save my life. Lots of understeer, and lots of backing up and turning again...

    One deuce, three M105s, one trip?

    Thanks for the info! Definitely looks like the best way is towing one trailer upside down on top of the other.

    One deuce, three M105s, one trip?

    Won 3 trailers. Just wondering if it is possible to get them with a deuce in 1 trip safely. No double towing. Maybe fit 2 in the back of the deuce sideways or something? Probably going to make 2 trips, just wanted to see if anyone has done something like this before.

    Which tag in FL?

    Yes, it's the yearly antique truck tag instead of the permanent antique tag. It is $10.25 a year plus fees, which makes it around $39.

    Which tag in FL?

    You can only get the horseless carriage if it is 1945 or earlier. I would totally get that if the vehicle qualifies.

    While I would really, really, really like to be there, I think I will be on vacation in Seattle.

    Has anyone built a big slide-in "truck" camper for a M35 Deuce?

    That's what I did. I contemplated swapping back and forth, but just having both seemed like the best solution in the long run.

    Got my 395's mounted (finally!)

    Please forgive my ignorance, but has anyone flipped the front hubs? Seems like that would give you a wider stance while still having all tires track the same. Is that just not possible, or really bad for steering or safety? Just curious if this has ever been tried.

    Well, you are never sure, but it looked drivable to me.

    I'd drive mine back too, but I think I need to bring a seat and top...

    Twins are in!

    Pete, do you happen to know if an MM23e will mount on the MG42 ring you have over the cab? Thanks, Tim

    sustained top speed

    I agree with Bill 100%. I just drove a M35a2 from Tennessee to Orlando, FL this weekend, about 700 miles. I was pushing 55 mph for the first 200 miles, but settled into about 52 mph at 2200 rpm at the sweet spot for sustained cruising.
