    Advice for Mechanicsburg recovery?

    Pulling with a M105A2 with a pick up should be easy enough. I picked mine up with my F350 and didn't even know it was there. I had the same setup as you (i.e. temp lights) and bought a pintle setup from Northern Tool. If it has the racks/bows up I would take those down to lessen any wind...

    New GL rule, PAY first! EUC approved or not......

    RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: New GL rule, PAY first! EUC appr My post was not intended as a bashing of GL. I thought for a first time purchase it went pretty well. My EUC was back before the advertised time frame of 45 - 60 days and the people on livehelp (Meredith, Joanna, etc.) were very...

    Square Holes in M105 Bed

    Agreed, as long as there are hot chicks in bikini's in the tub as proof that it was actually being used. :twisted:

    Square Holes in M105 Bed

    Another possibility is that they could be air vents for when the trailer has the canvas on it. Granted when the trailer is being pulled it would get all the air it needed, but when sitting in a lot loaded these would allow air to move through the trailer.

    M105A2 Recovery

    New type of bed and frame. It has some extra tie down points that some of the older A2's don't have. I had a guy try to talk me into trading this one for one of his older A2's.

    M105A2 Recovery

    All, Just had a very interesting day picking up my M105A2 from Camp Ripley. I won't tell the story so that I don't get anyone from GL in trouble, but lets say that I spent 8 hours on the road to get my trailer when I should have spent 5. Trailer has a little cosmetic damage on the sides from...

    M105 lunette removal

    Just got my 105 today and spent an hour getting the lunette out. Took a piece of metal, placed it b/t the nut and framework of the trailer. Put pressure on the lunette shaft by tightening the nut up against the metal plate. Hooked a log chain to my truck and pulled tight against the lunette...

    M105 lunette removal

    Try an air chisle with a hammer attachment might also knock the rust loose. I'll have the same project here in a couple of days as I'm picking my 105 up tomorrow.

    Diesel additive

    RE: Power Service Additives My dad and I both use ATF in the fuel tanks of our diesel trucks (mine is a Powerstroke, his is a Freightliner w/ Cat). His last truck went 900,000+ miles before he had to change out injectors which according to some sources are only guaranteed for 100,000 miles. I...

    Any Steel Soldiers ATV's

    Here's my 2004 Arctic Cat 650 VTwin in "action" next to a M60A3 out at the museum that I volunteer at. I was getting the '60 prepped to crush a few cars for the crowd and didn't feel like walking around. It gets used a lot dragging the rock lot back smooth after we move the tanks around as...

    Also check out Northern Tool as I got my set for under $100 from them and their insert had a bigger vertical adjustment than TSCs
