    Different turrets

    I might add that that TM is super confusing as organized. I printed the turret applicable pages and rearranged the pages such that all the same UOCs were grouped together. Then it made more sense. You then have to pick a path to go down, as the turret components don’t necessarily interchange...

    Different turrets

    Jeep M38A1 radio

    I have looked everywhere and I cannot find the drawings. No big deal though, the wood blocks are 2x4 true dimension white oak blocks that are the same length as the 299 feet. You will see that the 299 hangs over the sponson, these blocks accommodate that. The mount should allow about an inch...

    Carburettor flooding. Help !!!

    Your problem is new loads of crap being pumped out of the tank and holding the needle valve open. Put a filter before and after the fuel pump. Carry spares. When the truck won’t go 60 mph anymore it’s time to replace filters.

    1991 M998 starting issues that I just cannot figure out Please help!!!

    Where did you disconnect the starter trigger wire, at the starter or at the ignition switch? When you did this, did the instruments come on in “run” position?

    No. Rent a 580K for a week and spend your time digging not repairing.

    Saw a HMMWV with mounted .50 cal driving in Orange, Texas?

    Saw a HMMWV with mounted .50 cal driving in Orange, Texas?

    Yeah that dude used to post on here but it's been a long time. I can't remember if I called him out for his practice of driving around with mounted weapons fake or not. That has always been a huge nono in this hobby. Really freaks people out.

    s280 shelter questions

    Pic is funny as can be. In the pic, I see what looks like a rusty steel semicircle pointing up that seems to form a skid under the centerline of the shelter. I have never seen a S280 with a steel skid like that, only aluminum runners. If the rusted away steel skids are non original or...
