1-5 cav deployed to DS and OIF. Google it, you'll find lots of info.

There is a real good chance your trailer is a Desert Storm Vet.

Looks like a little Wisconsin.

I always thought the sandbag filler attachment was pretty cool.

I'll be there Friday for the day. Look for a Blue Dodge Pickup truck with a bed full of cans. No spouts, only cans.

They are a nightmare to work on.

If you know how to solder, you can make one yourself. It's a lot cheaper. I posted a thread on how to do it on here a while back.

I used to give discounts to members, but when one guy on here told another who obviously wasnt (and this was all overheard by a friend when we were at Aberdeen) "just tell the guy your on Steelsoldiers, he'll hook you up" all discounts stopped. Now everyone pays the same price. At any...

It's a Pribbs bed. The last (and latest) version of the M105A2 beds.

I missed the relay valve and air tank inspection. Add your list to the PMCS thats listed in the TM, and you'll have a very comprehensive list of things to check.

Good luck with AMG. They dont pass info out to anyone on exMV's they have made. Ask any HMMWV owner that has called/emailed. All you get is a CLICK as they hang up.

What Sigo says is good for the Army HMMWV's, but that information is not on the USMC ones..

Some of you guys amaze me.. NO, you probably dont need the brakes for the trip home. HOWEVER, doing the brake check as I described allows for 2 things to happen. 1, Check for play in the bearings, which could be a sign of impending doom on the ride home, 2) GET SOME $ OFF THE ASKING PRICE IF...

How do you define "big day"? Vendors rolling in, or public attendance, or the most club members there?

Thats what I would do! Get it off the donor truck. $100 goes a long way torwards lunch for the guys.... And will make your life easier, as it's one stop shopping.

I didnt say you'd NEED the brakes on the trailer, but it is a good bargaining chip for a few bucks off if they dont work. Always good for haggling the price.

I'll be there Friday with a ton of fuel cans for sale.

Bring a jack to get it on and off the pintel if your not using a Deuce. Trying to spin the pintel while onsite might not work. That usually takes lots of PB Blaster over a few days and a sledge hammer.

I wouldnt trust tires that old. Replace them. New tires are cheap compared to the costs the old ones can rack up with blowiuts or accidents.

Connect trailer and air up the brakes, jack up a tire on the trailer. Give jacked up tire a good spin, and hit brakes on truck. Trailer tire should stop immediately. Repeat for other side. If tire keeps spinning, there is some sort of brake problem. Might be a bargaining chip for a lower price...
