Thanks, If he does make the trip, I could also get him to haul down those MBU's that you are interested in. They look good, I've just got to go through them to make sure that they all work as intended...

A buddy of mine just won a pair of 6.2 engines in the can at Eglin and is trying to figure out if he wants to drive down and snag them or get them shipped... Anybody in the area, or headed that way, that is intested in helping to get them off base and moved to NC? If so, PM me and I'll put the...

Neil, Follow the link the Rob posted earlier in this thread to the Ray Price Harley Davidson dealership's Veterans' Appreciation Cookout on Saturday. We were invited to stop by after the parade for food and to show off our vehicles. It's on the way from the parade back to my place, so we're...

A couple photos that I took three weeks ago at Winslow's of one dump that he was testing out by hauling some rock, and another one showing his line of tractors with a dump visible at the end...

My take on the drop in prices (and I could be woefully off, but hey...): The Chinese finished their Olympic building program (for the actual games) some time ago, Three River Gorges Dam (also in China) is no longer sucking up steel and cement like a giant black hole... For the rest of the...

Pictures help, but I don't have one... :( Perhaps FrankUSMC might know of someone (or have one himself) who could help... Hopefully, he will spot this thread and chime in.

I recently looked at a duece that had a Cummins 6BTA installed... Sweet running truck, much more grunt on the low end, faster on the top (is sporting super singles) that is using the stock transmision. From what I understand from its current owner, a Guard unit did the swap in house... I...
