    Georgia MV Title Problems

    Terry, Towns County is telling me the same thing you stated. It was the State office that I am having problems with. I went to the State MVD office in Hapeville where you can receive the title immediately if you have the correct paperwork. I'm going to write a letter to the head of the MVD...

    Georgia MV Title Problems

    I visited the Georgia Motor Vehicle Division last week to apply for titles for three MVs I just acquired from GL. I had SF97s and Bills of Sale for all three vehicles, a 1969 Kaiser Jeep M35A2, a 1968 M105A2 trailer and a 1992 M116A2 trailer. I was told that I needed to have the VIN numbers...

    Official '09 SS Ga. Rally Info thread

    I just picked up an M35A2 W/W and will try to attend if work doesn't get in the way.

    Crooked Steering Wheel

    The advice from rlwm211 is spot on.

    Rear Step Question - M35A2

    I ordered the new (used) one from Eastern Surplus. It was in perfect condition and they got it to me very fast. I believe he might have the fold-up one for your front bumper. My front one was mangled, but I was able to straighten it, but it required the use of an acetylene torch. I can't...

    Rear Step Question - M35A2

    I have a 1969 Kaiser M35A2. One of the rear steps on the tailgate is mangled and I need a replacement. I ordered one and when it arrived it was too short, approximately 5 inches tall, while my truck has approximately 6 inch steps on it. The mounting hole patterns appear to be identical. I...

    Again, GL sucks for customer service

    I've learned to never fax anything to GL. I always scan and e-mail the forms and it works much faster. Also, the quality of the photo ID is much better as faxed copies are usually very poor quality.

    Brake Line - M-116A2/M-101Aw2Trailer

    In the TM, it refers to fabricating the brake line from bulk material with a stock number, but no specifications on the size of tubing.

    Brake Line - M-116A2/M-101Aw2Trailer

    I need to replace the front brake line on an M-116A2 trailer. This is the same as the M-101A2. Does anyone know what size steel tubing is used?

    Reconfiguring MEP-006A GenSet

    I picked up the MEP-003A at Ft Jackson today and pulled it home. The trailer has a new top and two new tires. Otherwise, the trailer has a lot of rust and corrosion. Both tail light assemblies are bent, and the hydraulic line from the tongue rearward is broken in two. Sandblasting and paint...

    Reconfiguring MEP-006A GenSet

    That link worked great - thanks! I can't wait until I get mine tomorrow. It's trailer mounted and only has 669 hours on it.

    Reconfiguring MEP-006A GenSet

    This is very interesting. I also have a 3 ton geothermal heat pump (Waterfurnace), closed-loop system. I love the geothermal heat pump, which has significantly reduced my heating/cooling bill. Plus, I have a desuperheater on it as well for hot water. How noisy is the MEP-003A? The one I'm...

    Reconfiguring MEP-006A GenSet

    Thanks for the advice. I'd seen several MEP-006A generators for sale by re-sellers that claim they have been re-configured to provide the 120/240 single phase. They must have converted to a delta connection as you mentioned. I was suspicious because everything else I'd read did not mention...

    Reconfiguring MEP-006A GenSet

    I understand that it is possible to reconfigure an MEP-006A GenSet to 120/240 single phase output. Does anyone have instructions on how to do this? There are instructions in the TM how to reconfigure up to three separate single phase outputs as long as none of the loads exceeds 33% of the...

    M-105A2 Tailgate Rack Needed

    Here are photos of the trailer. I saw a lot of other trailers at Ft Riley and some were good and many were not so good. GL told me that I got one of the best of the group. I towed the M-105A2 home with my Ford F-150 with a 5.0 L engine / 5 speed manual. I didn't have any problems towing the...

    Deuce on the way!!

    I just picked up my deuce at Ft Indiantown Gap in PA. It took 3+ weeks for my EUC. I drove it home approximately 700 miles with minimal problems. Although my deuce started right up, the GL guy at Ft Indiantown Gap told me that unless he was extremely busy he always helped pick-ups starting...

    M-105A2 Tailgate Rack Needed

    Yes, I'm in Hiawassee, GA which is located in the Northeast part of the state in the mountains. That would be great if you had one available. Thanks.

    M-105A2 Tailgate Rack Needed

    I just picked up an M-105A2 at Ft Riley. I got very lucky as the trailer is virtually perfect. The only thing is that the rear tailgate rack is missing. Any suggestions as to where I might find one?
