    G7117 Axle questions

    How to move a dead truck?

    Pay attention to the overall height on these, if your flatbed is dock height it will be to tall. Avoid crane loading these at all costs, unless you have appropriate spreader bars something will get smashed. Use a trailer with ramps and winch on.

    Transmission leaking into air cleaner HMMWV

    3126 and c7 video on a CAT update

    Requesting expert opinions on if this M38 is a good choice to buy

    Got some originality issues: wrong bumper, tires, fuel tank, wheel on spare bracket. Missing top bows and brackets, the entire 24 volt system, pintle hitch. Paint is wrong color. Price too high.

    White top m1009

    The real Army registration is stamped on the vin plate in the door jamb. The stencil looks bogus.

    Deuce crank pulley wobble/loose
