    5 TON Hater ........

    Never ceases to amaze me---The irony of wanting to enjoy a hobby that honors and preserves the machines that makes it possible for our military to fight to keep this country free and yet being stopped from doing that very hobby by (a few) knotheads that can't seem to grasp the concept of...

    Air Brakes Question

    Hey !!! Maybe we could get a new Emoticon thingy for these very critical safety items like the brake can issue on this thread.Maybe something like a skull and cross bones smiley face.Would be easier and quicker than the abbreviation I G F K Y. (It's Gonna F---in' Kill Ya)

    Air Brakes Question

    HHHMMM ,If it is indeed a brake can (with park brake, sometimes called a piggy back can cause it is both service brake and park brake),sometimes those brake chambers can be sneaky little fellers---once in a while the rubber diaphram de-lams (leaks thru layers for better way to explain it) so...

    Help with the Cargo Cover Please!

    HHMM ? The thread here was to get the tarp rolled up to give the kids shade--(thanks- I'm learning lots here!)BUT I have noticed that when my troop seats are in the"sit-down" position, that there seems to be quite a large(large enough to lose a squirmy small child thru) gap in the side boards...

    Found in the woods

    If its an active mine, it probly belongs to the mine owner.May want to find that out--may find the owner has title and would want to sell.If the mine is not active (to clarify--claim abandoned hence the land IS forest service)---THEN you are negotiating with them.Access (retreival/travel across...

    Found 1953 m35 cheap should I buy?

    Yeah!-- where is Sagle? I live 100 north of Boise and have a '57 Utica-Bend Gasser.It was to be the beginings of a Bob project but After I got it home I felt it was way too rare and too good shape to change.

    5 ton towing a 55 ton tank

    Had a loaded log truck (40 tons ,18 wheels) break down in a bad place once--really needed it moved but the mechanic showed up after driving 2 hours to get there and nothing else was available but the chevy 1 ton 2-wd,350ci service truck he was in. We had quite an argument ---he didnt think there...

    Help us get him in the truck!!!

    Maybe this is way too far ahead of ourselves BUT would it be possible to build a seat with lifting eyes that could be set on the wheel chair full time that could then be lifted by the hoist to go into the deuce.For lack of a better way to describe it---kind of like palletized loading.This way...

    Weight restrictions crushing Dreams?

    On Interstates you are legal to 12,000lbs on the steer--and 34,000lbs on a tandem set,so you're VERY unlikely to be "heavy" going across weigh station scales (thus drawing attention to your self) The BIG thing is whether you are engaged in "commerce of any way,shape or form". NO you are...
