    HMMWV Trailering

    U haul silver not orange car trailer will work but very tight. They will not rent if you disclose hmmwv or h1. You will have to say jeep cj5 or something else in their data base. Tow vehicle has to also be rated for the correct gvwr. Ymmv

    Looking for specifications axis M101 A3 3/4

    Interesting as we have no rules in the US prohibiting surge brakes. What about the towbar is not approved? Can you tell us more about that unit? Is it also a hydraulic actuator? Looks like it can take up slack inbetween a towing vehicle and a trailer like a rail road carriage? Curious as it...

    Need suggestions on battery powered impact wrench for Airlift and front winch install

    If you like the weight, 12 is the way to go. I feel tools actually spin faster and work harder than the smaller batteries Ymmv

    Need suggestions on battery powered impact wrench for Airlift and front winch install

    I am sure you probably read my thread. Notes from my experience as fyi. Invest in a good line wrench and crow foot for the hoses. One was a bear to get off. I think it was 18mm. Check my thread. 4 bolts that will be for the extension need to be longer than stock for airlift. Do you have the...

    Military Trailer Title in North Carolina

    No way is it in Maine's system nor would they care. I assume you do not have a 17 digit standard vin, just a data plate so even doubtful NC could track it as they do not know military suppliers.
