    "Rescued" M816 Wrecker

    Possibly need to see it drawn out, but I just had a thought of using the upper and lower shackle mounting points we were just speaking of and using both to hold everything up Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    "Rescued" M816 Wrecker

    Okay so mainly just giving you crap about backing up a dolly, although it will turn tighter than just fifthwheel. And yes that's the upper mount I was speaking of. The upper hitch works great for trucks that have only over bumper mounts, like m35 and 809 series trucks. Sent from my SM-G930V...

    M923a2 war wagon

    Dear mustang I am not asking if my truck had a LWS, IT DID, I am asking the gentlemen that have Vietnam era gun trucks if they believe that the convoy escort trucks from the late 80's the 90's would be considered as gun trucks of that era. As to your contention that most of the 939 series trucks...

    "Rescued" M816 Wrecker

    As to a reversed tow bar mounts, cut or remove the rear bumperets and or add the high mounted ones like Zebadee shows on the Australian 816 Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    "Rescued" M816 Wrecker

    If you go tow bar route use a pickup truck size fifthwheel much lighter and stil rated for your trailer. But as the chaplain pointed out that a dolly would be better, when you learn how to back it up. You can do it! Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    Lift kit for M1009

    Would be cheaper to make zero rate blocks there as they are easy to make. Nathan I would use a 2.5-3" kit because you will have to change less, no driveshaft, or steering and will have a nice look with 33" tire. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    2011 Mep 803 wiring for house

    You only want one ground in any situation, be it standalone with a rod driven nearby or your house which already has a rod driven nearby. I don't remember the exact reason but it is explained in one of the many how to hook my generator to my house threads and code also says only one. I trust...

    M872 warning

    I don't know if this is just the M872 or the M872A1 is included but I will be checking all M872 trailers are being scrapped, must mutilate because they have been rusting from the inside out and the military has had at least one catastrophic failure where the trailer broke in half. This is...

    Killing NHC 250s -what we have learned killing 3 of them.

    No I was never the comptroller but I never said the 250 is bulletproof and I didn't just look at one engine and base my argument on just that. I Wil say that i have probably worked on and fired up around 3500 Cummins 250 engines and also privy to the engine shop operations and friends with the...

    Killing NHC 250s -what we have learned killing 3 of them.

    Okay so we have some data to go by, acme66 lost 3 or 4 engines. He says because egt in a stock engine gets to high when you floor it and hold it there in a 923 with 2000 lbs of people in it. Okay in Vietnam they drove the 250 like a bat out of he'll by guy's that didn't have a clue when they...
