Keep us posted as to your progress & a few pictures on the way home!

I won a 1986 MEP-002 unit this afternoon & will get to go do a recovery on it after the invoice comes in. All this is too close to Christmas for me due to them (DLA) being shutdown during the Holidays for pickups. My workplace is also shut down during these times, which unfortunately, doesn't...

This is why my reply was to get the truck first & all the rest would be sorted out. Congratulations on getting your paperwork in order...

Welcome to the Green Iron Laughing Academy, very nice looking truck; seems you got her all fixed up before wringing her out. You have good patience to do that. Your brother has a 5 ton, the question is who will buy the new piece of Green Iron?

Another shout out from Gainesville, FL. Beautiful looking truck, you do great work on them from the pictures! See you around someday!

Why is burning magnesium illegal?

The plant I work @ uses magnesium chips in chemical reactions, but they are by the 55 gallon drum x many. The magnesium run flat you have would be a center piece for conversation or hang it over your barn door...

Welcome from Florida, Ethan's Deuce has now found a new family to join. Your boys seem to love it also!

Agreed that 30 psi is a good towing pressure empty & you have to actually test the pressure, not look @ the tire or kick it & assume that it is good to go. All of mine were brand new with the rubber tits still on all the tire, so initial pressure was good for storage. Another thing to look @ is...

Congratulations on your safe trip home, you did well. I've pulled home three of these trailers from as far away as Atlanta with no problems. As far as the jack is concerned, I used a 3 ton floor jack & checked the bearing & wheel turning resistance before starting on the trip right after...

Welcome from sunny cold Florida! Enjoy your new ride!

If this was a civi truck, there would be a problem with the VIN; being a military truck, you have to wade thru the system until you find that golden person who is enlightened enough to get you your SF97 & your title. I had a problem with a truck I got that had the VIN plate demilled by uncle...

Typical Marines, getting the job done, having fun & making waves where ever they go. God Bless them all!

Welcome from Gainesville.....not Georgia, but Florida! Ya know that you can't just have one! Welcome to the Green Iron Disease, too...

Thanks for posting that, watching it reminds one of how great industry in this country used to be during a true war effort!

I noticed that the trucks painted with the desert tan CARC paint start to turn black after sitting in the Florida humidity for 6 months or more. Went down to the local Army Reserve & low & behold, all of their trucks are doing the same thing, but much worse than mine. Time must be a big factor...

I have to buy a minimum of 4 gallons @ a time, just to do business with SW for CARC paint, they don't even care that I already do $10,000.00 a year or more business with them for other industrial coating products...

A third welcome from Florida. The longer you wait to get a truck, the more expensive they get. Ohh, also, you can't just have one! They are addictive!

Nice safe installation job that looks like BMY put it there. Post up you next job so we can get a few more ideas from you!

They are out there in a few guys hands, the rest of us have to wait our turn as they are released or resold. I am in the que waiting to the right one comes along.
