    Just bought a water buffalo, M107A2 I think. What do I need to pull her home?

    That is definitely an M149A2 water buffalo. I have one I recovered from Camp Lejeune several years ago. Looks like a nice trailer. I agree with the previous comments. One caution I have is to not lift the front end any higher than you need to as the trailer can flip over backwards very...

    M35A3 Deuce steering. Oh fu......................dge....something is missing!

    What steering wheel is on the A3 you are working on? A3s have a smaller diameter steering wheel than the A2, which would make it even more difficult to steer than an A2 with manual steering. You are going to have to spend some money to replace your missing parts.

    Left front tire on M35A2 900x20s keeps going flat??

    I would never use a 50+ year old tube in a tire! Especially in a front wheel. New tubes don't cost that much.

    Took My M1030M1 For A Ride In The Mountains Today

    It had been a few months since I had ridden my M1030M1 so I decided to take it for a ride into town and visit the local coffee shop. I had to endure several interested bystanders asking questions, which is normal when I bring that bike out. Afterwards, it was such a beautiful day I ended up...

    M106 Mortar Carrier

    Very good job on the mortar carrier. I used to drive those and M113s when stationed in Germany in 1970-71. They were fun to drive. Much better than the M114A1E1s we had as well. Much higher ground clearance and a much better engine.

    M1030M1 Motorcycle Wins First Place Award At North Georgia Motorcycle Show

    M1030M1 Specs The oil filter is a standard KLR650 filter. I found mine on Ebay. I haven't changed the fuel filter. I did drain and refill the fuel tank as I had no idea how old the existing fuel was. I also add Optilube XPD to the fuel for lubricity. Low sulfur fuel is BAD for the diesel...

    Almost any decent locksmith can make you a new key if you take the lockset to him.

    Need some help from Venezuela

    When you ground the generator, make sure you ground it to the house ground and not a separate grounding rod. I have done process control projects in Venezuela. The power in Venezuela that I have encountered is as follows. 1. Normal power is 120 / 240 VAC 60 Hz 1 Ph 2. Industrial power is 240...

    Need some help from Venezuela

    I was under the impression that Venezuela electrical power in homes was 120 VAC single phase. You mentioned 3 phase. Are you certain you have 3 phase electrical power in your home? I know that a lot of countries do supply 3-phase electrical power to homes.

    OHIO BMV Changed my Street Legal Title from Virginia to Off Road USE only

    You need to look up the law in Ohio and make sure the written law supports what the BMV is saying. If the law doesn't specifically state that you can't title a FMV in Ohio, it is time to go higher up in the BMV bureaucracy and contact your local representatives.
