Nothing at those sites, but I've used UPS Stores at other locations, even for large heavy pieces of equipment, with great success.

We lost power last night at about 10:30 PM. I ran the MEP003A until about 11:30 AM this morning. Fantastic machine and the only piece of military surplus equipment I've bought that my wife actually likes!

You should seldom need ether to start your truck. I would replace the bottle, but if the weather turns extremely cold and you know you will need the truck, put a block heater on it. I have a magnetic one that I use when needed, which is seldom.

Hopefully the service calls aren't costing you too much, but it sounds like it was a good call getting an expert involved.

This is a very good comment. If my MEP003A doesn't immediately start firing, I stop and manually lift the fuel cutoff solenoid with my fingers and then release it. The engine almost always immediately starts.

The MEP003A is a very good genset. Very dependable. You need to thoroughly clean out the fuel system and change the oil and filter before doing anything else. I have listed some part numbers to get you started. Oil Filter: FRAM CH6PL NAPA 1004 Fuel Filter: FRAM 1125PL NAPA 3113 Air...

Note that camo or "military" paint schemes are illegal in some countries. I would suspect that there are a lot of countries that forbid driving an ex-MV on their roads, or even the temporary importation. Be prepared for massive paperwork challenges for some countries. You also need to check...

I've used the winch on my M35A3 quite a lot, but from inside the cab. It's safer inside the cab in the event of a potential cable break.

I entered my M1030M1 USMC diesel motorcycle in the North Georgia Motorcycle Show today in Blairsville, Georgia. I won first place in the Special Interest Category. They didn't have a category for military motorcycles. The weather was somewhat poor. I had to ride to the show in the rain, but...

The wheel was still there next to the rotten pine tree by registration when I moved my 1061 trailer to the cabins Friday afternoon.

I got home last night with no problems. Unfortunately, I had to leave for home directly from the hardball convoy because of a commitment to the 4H. As usual, I had a fantastic time. Thanks to Welder1 and crew for the hospitality. Rained about half of the trip home. I was carrying a load of...

Have you checked the actual voltage with a volt meter, not the on-board meter?

I've had luck with Ebay in the past. I've also seen them frequently for sale by vendors at rallies.

I have an M35A3 with the CAT 3116 engine. I routinely have 60 psi pressure when first started cold. It drops to about 40 psi when idling and warm.

I just about had to go clean up as well! I got my brakes fixed today. A steel brake line that appeared to be in good condition split open. All I had left was the front brakes. Fortunately I had an A3 with split brakes.

I've had a setback. While driving to Hiawassee to fill up my M35A3 with diesel, a small car pulled out right in front of me. I was going about 45. I stood on the brake pedal as hard as I could and locked up all six wheels. I barely missed the car, but now my brakes aren't behaving right...

A friend of mine in Hiawassee is looking for a good condition M101 trailer.

On my XM1061E1 trailer, the glad hands were colored red and blue, but were colored opposite the way they should have been.

I have an XM1061E1 trailer. I found that the glad hands on the trailer were reversed, left to right.

Here are photos from the actual trailer. The trailer has electric brakes and an electrically actuated dump bed. You would have to wire up the controller, which is included, for the electric brakes and dump function. I'm going to bring the trailer to the GA Rally along with an ATV so you can...
