Do not buy any british Clansman Radios or other gear from a guy who goes by the name tacticall-x-hire on ebay. I am out $1400 because I sent it to him and received nothing.
Here is how the scam works. You buy radios legitimately off ebay. Then he contacts you and sends you to a link and tells...

Does anybody know who this company is?

I have a reconditioned MK48. I can see on the reconditioning plate that it was done in 2008.
However, all the other plates have blanks for "date of manufacture."GL did not list a date on the sale invoice or web listing.

I got my MK48 FPU but the seats and cushions are torn to threads.

Judging from this bit of information I stumbled upon, it looks like the recapitalization program is going to keep HKWv's in use by the military for a long time to come. It makes since, as they do need a general purpose logistics truck that is unarmored, or lightly armored and air transportable...
I have an M35a3 with only 5000mi on it. However, the steering wheel seems to have way to much play. I tried to tighten up the linkage but i think I may have been on the wrong bolt.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks in advance
I am planning a 400+ mile road trip in the m35a3 (soft top) and I bought a 24 volt small fan that is supposed to be used in the cabs, since I have no A/C.
Have you guys every mounted these? Where is the best place to mount it. I was think i could make a bracket and mount it on the upper right...
I am once again looking for a HEMTT...I know they are around in various condition, but just not so much that they are easy to find. Somebody once mentioned a place called Teds trucks, and said they have some.
