    Lots of room on top for big solar panels too!

    M1061a1

    Negative on the linkage thing. It is an air over hydraulic brake system. Check tire pressures and lights after hook up and just go.

    Roger that. Thanks for the education. I'm finding anymore that kids ( and even a lot of my generation) don't know much of anything anymore anyway, much less do they care about things that matter.

    White M2A1 Halftrack

    Looks pretty cool the way it is anyway. Should be a great project. Looks like it is all there.

    Sounds cool. I wasn't aware we actually lost any men in desert storm. I was always under the impression we just kind of crushed the enemy with impunity. Nevertheless, all of our lost veterans deserve to be honored.

    With that kind of insulation and the overall design of the trailer it actually sounds like it would make a great reefer trailer. I bet with jus a small air conditioner you'll be able to hang meat in there in July.

    M1061a1

    Correct, and correct. This trailer is plug and play with the deuce. Hook up and go. Just be sure not to cross up the air lines or you'll go nowhere fast. I suggest stopping ten miles or so down the road from where you pick the trailer up and feel the rims by hand for temperature if you don't...

    Excellent. That should make for a much more efficient climate control system. You must have what, a good four inches of foam then?

    He is just saying that if you intend to make any use out of it as a flat trailer you will need to mount tie down points on it.

    Should make for a very nice camper. You are starting out with a better base all together. How substantial is the foam insulation?

    That's pretty sweet! Thinking about building out a new camper inside?

    You will most likely find that your truck actually stops better with this trailer attached. Mine sure does. If working properly the brakes on these trailers are awesome. And yes, it can be towed without brakes.

    East Texas micro-rally!

    I can bring a hood for the 1009. It is not new but it is rust and dent free.

    Deuce was dead on side of the road.

    No no, I'm betting you can just pull the shifter boot up and tighten the bolt/nut.

    M105A2 landing gear problem

    Oven cleaner will work to remove that paint. Spray it, let it sit until the paint is bubbling off, then hose it off. Works just like aircraft paint stripper.

    The shifter shaft clamping bolt is more than likely loose and causing the slop.

    Just don't beat on the threads when you do the lunette.

    Late Model USAF M35A2C Registry

    Ughh... I have like five of these I need to post up here. Of course, none of them have the data plate anymore. I wish I knew why the air force takes the data plates off of so many of these.

    M1009 rear axle lawsuit

    Agreed. Years of being a mechanic has shown me that the ten bolt is indeed junk. Don't forget that they also like to just drop teeth off of the ring and pinion gears for no reason. Poor heat treat once again.

    East Texas micro-rally!

    Cool! Hey guys, if you have anything you want to trade or sell, bring it. May as well make this a true swap meet for all involved. I'm going to bring a few things extra.
