    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2015 - May VOTE HERE

    This is a tough month. I can't decide between myself, Castle Bravo, sandcobra, RDUKW, or mkcoen. One vote for my truck would be nice(even if it's my own vote), but I really didn't expect to have any chance with all the great tucks this month.

    Oshkosh Corp Mdl:K2358

    Cool! Welcome from California! Any current pictures you can share? Personally, I don't think I would change the color from white but it's your truck so if you want purple with pink flames go ahead.:D

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    That's a nice looking truck you have there! It looks like it's real happy up on those logs.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I replaced the front shackle that disappeared somewhere on the road to the Socal Rally a couple weeks ago.

    KE5EUA's 818 Build

    Looking good! That dash looks pretty cool how it is now, all shined up like that.

    Alaska to Alabama in Brutus

    Looks like I'm about 20 miles off of your route in Palmdale, Ca. Staying on the 58 from Bakersfield to Mojave is probably a good idea. It'll be pretty slow going but the other option is going up the Grapevine on 5 which is pretty hard on anything bigger than a Honda. Good luck and have fun on...

    Decorations at a local Pick Your Part

    Where is this? I've never seen these before and I'm about ready to go looking for a good junkyard to get some truck parts.

    M1101 / M1102 vs. M1105 series

    I've seen a couple people advertising for 1105 trailers. I think they just misread 1102.

    2015 SoCal Spring Rally

    We're planning on coming out Saturday afternoon-Sunday. My dad has to work Saturday morning so we are't going to be able to get away any sooner. If anyone wants some ammo cans I can toss some in the truck for a special rally price- 81mm cans $9 ea/ $150 a pallet of 21, 50 cal $10 ea, "grade 2"...

    CCKW 353 Australia

    That's good you don't have to have everything shipped over. I don't know who the best people here are for CCKW parts since I've never owned one (if I had made it to a construction auction last Thursday I would now own one real cheap, grrr) but I do see Vehicles of Victory mentioned a lot. The...

    M29/M29C. Worth the time?

    I think Bob's Army Navy up in Mojave has one of these in their yard. They might have some parts around for them.

    Looking good! How's the parts availability for one of these trucks down in Australia?

    M939 door stops?

    I've never seen anything like that stopper. On my truck I just took the limiter rods off the doors and put new rubber spacers and some washers on them to shorten the length of travel.

    Hello and introduction

    Napa sells connectors that can be crimped onto a wire on one end and plug into the military wiring on the other. I just buy a trailer wiring harness from Harbor Freight, cut it about 6 feet in from the plug and put the connectors the ends. That way you can just unplug the military connector from...

    M923A2 Recovery from Barstow 485 Miles to home

    Nice truck and good pictures! Sounds like you had a good trip. Never done it in an MV but I always like the drive from Bishop to Fallon, especially around Hawthorne and Mina.
