    Threw a rod through my engine block.

    I know this isn't funny but that looks to be the same spot my block cracked when my crankshaft broke into two pieces. My truck still ran on the back three cylinders but man what a racket. Felt like it was going to bring the front wheels off the ground like a hoopty. Yes, you cam tow bar it...

    Threw a rod through my engine block.

    Sorry about your luck but I have had an engine decide it was better to be in pieces than stay together. Like Gimp said, find a motor and pull the engine pack out, swap the engine and either put the pack back together or put the engine in by itself and add the rest. Lots of help on the site.

    Advice on purchasing a 5 ton

    I believe you meant to say they blow up (crack the case) in reverse low when under a load. Just putting the truck in reverse low and backing around the yard won't blow it up. But it never hurts to be safe.

    Patracy's M1038

    It will need a star flag for the front left corner and a US flag for the right (slightly higher than the left flag). :-)

    hello from edmonton

    Welcome aboard from Ohio. Edmonton, the only city in the only country where I have been accused of being an illegal alien and detained and fined $200c when my plane landed. Ah yes, good times. :-)

    The Next Chapter for the HMMWV

    I wonder how many more years we will be hearing about the JLTV?

    HMMWV impounded

    I went through this with GL. Paid sales tax on the truck when I bought it. Walked into the BMV and they calculated the tax already paid to GL and it covered the state tax they wanted. Zero went to the state and I kinda think they get screwed by GL, not me.

    Don't lose your nuts !

    The way I look at it, my entire life when I hear someone say they paid X for something someone else chimes in and says they could get it cheaper somewhere else. It happens, you needed them to get the truck fixed.

    Air Force One and Marine One

    That's cool. I'd love to see the old plane in its current location. We have one of the older presidential aircraft at the museum.

    Stencilling Trick

    Funny CARNAC. That same E2 is the one who painted the rest of the truck with a mop.

    Air Force One and Marine One

    In the old 707? Reagan, although he approved the 747 he never got to ride in it as President.

    Air Force One and Marine One

    And remember, it's only Marine One or Air Force One when POTUS is on board. I've only seen the Marine helos together so you never know which one if either, POTUS is in. ;-)
