HH, Your axels are better keep them. 12 miles @ 65 is fine. I have driven hundreds coming back from field sites or rally events, I have even pushed it to 70 but not for long. Your truck should serve you well as is, if you want to modify it later to better suit your needs that option is...

Ok here is the skinny, I drive my '86 M1008 daily and at highway speed (55-60) often. The deal is that M1008's (and M1028's) were meant to be a work horse thus meant to tow and haul more gear. The M1009's were meant to be Command and Control vehicles and were geared to run faster. It really...

Wow, I have been in the field some this week and missed this thread. SP1 I'm glad it worked out for you! Many thanks Ferro and the rest of the SC crew that helped out. Once again I am reminded why I love this site so much! Great job guys! -Dale

Any pictures of this with the cover?

No problem, look me up next time your here and we can trade stories over a beer (or more than one as it turns out most of time). -Dale

Sorry for the late welcome, somehow I missed this thread. I'm a UAV Warrant Officer now but in my previous life I was a 11B3P (5W) with scout plt and LRSD time. Welcome to Steel Soldiers! Currently I'm North of you at FT Lewis (1st SFG (A) ) If you ever need me to screen any GL stuff up here...

Welcome back to the site!

Sorry choll but nopics

I remember a thread about a guy that fabricated some type of step that mounted where the front towing shackles are. Thanks for sharing and hope you have a speedy recovery

Yep one in the same!

I bought a 03 Dodge Durango with low miles, mainly because I needed a SUV class vehicle with a high towing capacity to help out with a cross-country PCS move(from GA to WA). I had it checked by a reliable shop before purchasing. It made the trip fine but as soon as I made it up here to the PNW...

Sandcobra, That is just too cool! Congratulations on the find. -Dale

Why not register it in your home state? Its pretty common for us military guys to have out of state plates.

CJ, I am sorry to hear of your plight, but I can't help but observe a pattern here. I know guys that have lost their jobs and loved ones that don't ask for as much as you seem to do on a regular basis. I will probably get misunderstood by many in making this this post. I am not bashing...

I am getting the notifications via e-mail but for a period (when I created thread) the links did not work. Things seem to working again as the page just opened when I clicked the link. -Dale P.S. Thanks for all the work to keep this site up MOD's, Mike, and Chris[thumbzup]

Anyone else notice that the e-mailed notice thread links don't work? I tried several and they show up as blank/page not found.

Very nice, now tell us your secrets....lol no really: Did you have the seat reupholstered? what about the floor liner? and did you lift it any for the HMMWV tires? -Dale

Not true, we used modified CUCV's for Desert Storm. We even had a pick-up without it's windshield so we could bolt a M60 tripod to the hood (yes we had to wear goggles to operate). What make this idea so laughable? Think about the old "Rat Patrol" gun jeeps before you answer. Sure no way...
