    Bows for an M871...

    Ahhhhh, THOSE..... I never saw ONE of them in my time with Uncle Sam, and I "owned" about a dozen of those trailers. I even tried to order some, they never came in. Honestly, I dont think they exist.

    900 series firefighter training crash w/video

    Anther Ex MV turned tanker crash, and another report for NFPA to say "here is why this is a bad idea" Seatbelts breaking???? Sounds like they were originals. Lesson to us all, and a another good example of why I replace all my seatbelts with new ones when I get a MV.

    Need to check wiring

    Make sure you have the right rubbers for the right glass. Ballistic glass wont work in normal rubbers, nor vice versa. Bottom line, check your NSN's.

    TM corrections

    Add the change #'s.. The date of the TM will be the same, no matter how many changes are made later on. For 90% of the items we need TM's for, Uncle Sam has stopped updating the TM's because they are getting rid of the equipment. There will never be another change to the TM of the 800 or...

    M1009 and CDN M101 combo (PICS)

    The CDNM101 wont float. It's too heavy, and has drain holes with no plugs in the bed. I have a CDN M101, they are awesome. I use mine on a regular basis. I put the LED tail lights on it so I can pull it with a MV or a civy truck with an adapter for the elecrical connection that I made up. If...

    TM corrections

    PAtracy, It's much easier to download them right from LOGSA. All the TM's on LOGSA have the updated changes to them, with the change # right next to the TM#. TM's are usually updated every 6 years by LOGSA. Thats wht the ETM disks are publised quarterly in the Army. Any updates to the TM's...
