Ran when parked? That'll buff right out.
When I see a derelict truck like that I always wonder how it got that bad. Someone didnt value the machine they had. Run 'er into the ground and throw it away when it's too nasty to fix. **** shame. For a business I suppose it's all about the cost of...
Yes! If i can find one and get it to where I need it to be. I've seen far more S250s lately for relatively low cost, that's why this came to mind. I would definitely prefer an S788 if I can find one. Thanks all for the size confirmation.
Not an S710, looks like a local build to me. I've seen some odd shelters/caps and I haven't seen one of those. Might be something from another service though. AF or Marine?
The closest I've seen to that are some of our cold weather caps we have on cargo/troop carrier HMMWVs up here, and even...
I think we have some of those for Stryker recovery. The HEMTT wreckers can only do so much with a Stryker, and then only if the Stryker can still roll. When the Stryker cannot roll we had nothing else in the BDE to recover them. I know we had them in theater and a significant number of knocked...
I've been thinking of what I can do with my 5 ton and something that popped into my head is to put an S250 shelter in the back for a small camper or something like that. I considered an S280 size shelter, but I still want some cargo space. I may go that route in the future but I think I might...
gavan, that is one ugly Jeep... i love it!:mrgreen: The 1008's look great with the 101 bed them too, but I never thought about a Jeep with that bed. Nice work. Be sure to post pics when you get 'er all painted. What little I've read about the CJ-10 tugs make them sound like odd beasts with some...
Thanks 800, that helps. At leasts I know there probably won't be an inspection required. The 813 will actually be staying in MI for awhile (I just havent picked it up from OH and moved it to MI yet), but I want to register in AK because I'll be here for awhile longer and I figure I'll probably...
I did a search on AK registration of MVs and this was the most relevant, so I thought I'd resurrect it to see how it went for flyusn99.
My situation is that I am currently living in AK and want to register my 5 ton that is physically in OH. Are there any inspections required by the state? Now...
I've been looking for various things for my M813, and the final destination for my parts is near Ann Arbor, MI, but I'm not familiar with Rodney's. Is there a website?
Welcome! I'm also a bit of new guy to SS here in AK.
I was looking at some of the tugs that were coming out of the Fairbanks DRMO awhile back, but I just couldnt justify me buying one. I'm curious, what are you guys using them for. I'd love to have one just because they're somewhat unique, but...
If you go with the current issue antennas you'd commonly find on a deuce such as an AS-3900 or AS-3916 your results with a CB will probably not be satisfactory. Those two antennas are VHF 30-88 MHz, and I seem to recall that they are more efficient at the upper end of it's designed range. I'm...
That explains why they look identical. However, on my MTOE I have 3/4 ton trailers paired up with heavy varient HMMWVs (M1097A2) as well as 1 1/4 ton trailers paired up with heavy HMMWVs so the intent isnt obvious.
Just by chance I did my cyclic inventory today which happened to include my 1101s and 1102s. I took some pics of the internal dimensions. I also looked to see the differences between 1101s and 1102s. I've known the differences in payload capacity for a long time, but I never realized that...
Thanks to all that offered support. I sent a few PMs in response.
If anyone has any other advice to offer, I'm all ears. Any mechanical tips, first upgrades to consider, super single rims and tire sources, tarp and bow sources, oil and fuel filter part numbers and sources, etc.
I've...
I saw center seats installed once. I believe they were in a M923 at Graf. I was there for a pre-deployment convoy live-fire, but it didnt belong to my unit. I can't recall the unit the owned it, but I know those seats were installed for the reason stated above, to allow troops to fire out for...
All found/ confiscated armaments are supposed to be returned to the Iraqi government for disposition. Even all the old obsolete stuff. Soldiers are no longer allowed to claim trophies or **** near anything with a military value. The only way I can imagine you'd have a chance in **** of...
