This is...

    Good / Bad Comments About HMMWV's??

    why feel guilty? Some units actually use there trucks, others such as HQ trucks and REMF's don't. NMC trucks can sit on the line for long periods due to various reasons, most of which are lack of parts or lack of money. The supply chain is as slow as ever.

    RKI question on fuel tank drop, hose replacement

    Just run the truck down on fuel before you start the tank drop...either way, you don't need a lift, I drain tanks once a week it seems. just buy 15ft of both and you will have plenty left over.

    You must have been bored Greg, LOL good post, this needs to be a sticky, Mods? FYI, the green label box requires NO TSU or glow plug controller at all, you can actually leave the connector off or plug the water crossover with a pipe plug...but it's best to just leave whatever is there, in there.
