So here's the outcome...
Called USAA, talked to a very nice lady, went through the algorithm, had to stop because of the weight of a deuce. They then referred me to Liberty insurance, they can't insure the deuce. So I called progressive, took a little while to get me to the right person, but...
Would the stock M35 air filter not have unused air capacity? My end goal is to have a deuce that looks stock but has a little extra under the hood. It just seems the stock intake is rather small compared to the filter size. Granted you have to have a clean filter for maximum capacity, I'm...
Has anybody tried to increase the air intake capacity on the air filter housing on a deuce by adding a second hole for a mushroom cap under the hood, or maybe a second one out of the side of the hood?? I put a Banks intake on my Jeep Wrangler when I got it, and it made a HUGE difference, just...
I'm in Ohio and have had USAA for my regular vehicles and home for nearly 30 years, but I've never insured a military or antique vehicle with them. I'm looking to buy an M35 that's currently registered as an antique, just wondering if any of you have any experience with them insuring your MV's.
I should also add that box crib weigh capacities are based on having a solid layer of 4x4's on the top, with the weight evenly distributed across all the 4x4's for maximum weight capacity. If the weight is just on one 4x4 in the stack, it will not hold the maximum weight. The weight has to be...
NAPA has them, and places like Auto Zone or other automotive parts places should have them. Or you can use 4x4 box cribbing. You might be able to get 2' pieces of 4x4's from a company that installs decks as scrap pieces.
As for rule #1, that depends on the vehicle, the road, and the conditions. Many vehicles bigger than a HMMWV are DESIGNED to go faster than 45 mph, and in some places, it's dangerous to go that slow, ie, the interstate.
Ferro isn't lying, I'm the guy that scrapes them up. I think we had one 3 mile section of heavy main line with two NS tracks and one CSX track that averaged one person hit a year in ten years, cars and pedestrians.
I was in a Brigade HHC motor section, and we had one deuce with two 300 gal. fuel pods, and a trailer with another pod in it. That's it. I think one year we went to AT with 110 vehicles in our motor pool, and that's the only fueling capability our unit had. We had a unit that would set up fuel...
Somebody needs to be in JAIL. Actually, a BUNCH of people need to be in jail for this. This "Colonel" needs to lose his pension as a minimum. Heck, you might as well have gone with a beefed up M-151A2, with what that Growler piece of crap was.
