The biggest problem with registering MV's in Canada is the lack of Knowledge at the licencing office, yesterday I spent 2 1/2 hrs at the office to register 2 x deuce. I purchased the vehicles from someone who bought them at Crown assets and sales at crown asset are run by a contractor hired by...

Your story sounds familiar, Idaho Motor pool tried to ship me an MKT, was quoted a good price , the MKT was picked up and for the next 9 weeks we looked for the MKT. I finally called the company "sweet dispatcher"(airhead) and told her that we were reporting the MKT as stolen by the transporter...

Never been called redneck but have been called other things like crazy, and a few names in french that don't translate. But as stated before they are jealous, you can see it in their eyes. That look also says boy are they lucky, my wife would never let me have an MV. My wife made the remark...

APC's and M548 (cargo version)are regularly sold through dealers in the US, if you read the MVPA magazine there is a company in New Mexico that has M548's for sale ($31,000), a dealer in Idaho recently sold am M548 to a private individual as well they sell them to companies. The M113 is a...

Believe it or not I had breakfast with memebers of the Royal 22e Regiment(Infantry) and the guy sitting next to me was a former Chief of Defence (top ranking Cdn general) and when I asked the question he told me that the Dept of Defence wanted to disassociate themselves with these vehicles, so...

If anyone wants a Cdn deuce, I know where you can purchase them. But beware, there major parts missing i.e. in Newfoundland the removed the starters and the radiators, In On & Quebec the oil filter housinga and the oil cooler and starter. We have these parts and we started one MLVW, it runs so...

Ditto on checking all cables. This week got into my 2006 International 5 ton and all I got was a click click. Starter was dead, reason?????:wink::roll:

I have an MKT and I just put dibs on a 2nd one, the guy is going to tell me what is in it and I will confirm the buy. The last MKT had everything in it an d I mean everything. In Canada before MKT's we had M135 converted into mobile kitchens, we built one last year and plan to use this...

As said before $200 for a used Millermatic is a steal, the smoke might be from dust and dirt that have entered into the machine and when it heats up these particles burn and create the smoke. Buy it and take it to a Miller dealer and have him look at it, he will tell you what is wrong and what...

:grin: Very good idea for the vehicles stickers, If ordering we would like about 20. Make sure that the glue is good enough to withstand the cold and snow. It is a bit chillier in Canada. And to answer the curious yes we do drive our MV's in the winter. Thanks

Shear pins are not a problem with thee Cdn deuce, the front winchs are all hydraulic no shafts or pins. We tried ours yesterday. We have an M36C Cdn with a winch and a Hiab knuckle boom with a cable winch mounted on the Hiab. This truck was just purchased and we started it for the first time...

My first post, new to this game. The winch has a higher rating than the weight of the truck and the shear pin is designed to prevent damage. If stuck to the frame of the truck the winch needs to pull the weight of the truck and also overcome the suction or obstacle. The total weight put on...
