    Brakes, or lack of......

    Just to squash the "don't mix DOT 3 with 5 " rumor - there is no problem mixing the two - one absorbs water(DOT 3) and one doesn't. Your seals will be fine with either or both mixed together. There is a post on here some where by D.Doyle I believe in which he had referenced a report by the...

    *FOUND* - long haul transportation vendor for your MV's

    RE: *FOUND* - long haul transportation vendor for your MV Just make sure you verify the shippers credentials, do not go by their feedback left by others. I got burned by someone who had very good feedback from many others but he got a bunch of deposits and bailed with a lot of money.

    What is the minimum height of a M35A2?

    Hook a hose up to the exhaust pipe so you don't kill yourself when starting it up. Run it out the door toward the neighbor you don't like!! :D

    RE: Re: RE: Colorado Spring MV Get Together Last time I came up that way, it took me about 6 hours to get to Cripple Creek in a regular vehicle although I was towing a trailer with a big ol' winch on the back.

    cummins 6bt in a cucv
