    M-50 Sherman alive again

    Awesome tank, and awesome tank collection! I'd love to see pics and videos of all of them, but particularly the M60A1.

    What is the function of this component inside the TOW missile trucks

    Come to think of it, maybe BLK HMMWV already stated it.

    What is the function of this component inside the TOW missile trucks

    I think that mounting point was where the TOW launcher was stored when in transit. As I said, "I think" this is how it worked. I hope someone who served can confirm this.

    What is the function of this component inside the TOW missile trucks

    I used to have an M1045 with that same TOW mounting point, as well as the missile racks (my truck also had the TOW wiring harness hung off a mounting point on the B-pillar). The racks took up the entire bed beneath the rear hatch.

    An NOS hard top goes for around $2K...slightly less if you are fortunate.

    Hmmmmm

    There is another thread on this same topic. Maybe one of the mods can combine them.

    Shawano County, Wisconsin Police Interaction With Belligerent Military Truck Driver!

    Not that it matters, but I was curious what type of truck he was driving. Apparently, he was driving either an M923 or M925 with super singles. I could not tell from the pic if it was an A1 or A2. One newspaper story (not the one I mentioned above) said he was driving a "deuce and a half"...

    Official Hagerstown MD May 12-14 2022 sell/trade/wanted list

    Mike, contact Dave Olchak. He had lightbars a while back. I just don't know if he still has them. I don't remember the colors he had, but I believe he might have had multiple colors (e.g., yellow, blue, red).

    MUTT engine prices?

    TNJ Murray in Dover, DE had rows upon rows of them. I'd check with John first. I am unsure what he was asking as I was not in the market for an engine when I was there.

    Possibly Forgotten Demil Items?

    I just checked mine. It is an Exeltech XP250. It is a 250W 12V pure sine wave power inverter. Mine was made in July 1998. As I said, it is one of the older ones, although it was unused when I got it. I works very well for my purposes...

    Possibly Forgotten Demil Items?

    Yes. I have one, although mine is one of the older ones. It was intended to run a lap top or something like that. I have charged my phone off of it. I also regularly use it to play music (iPod docking station). They do have a more powerful one. I was told the newer and more powerful one...

    Folding ladder for front bumper ideas.

    There is a military folding step for the front bumper of an M44, M39, or M809 series truck. There are a few on eBay. The step folds up, but comes down probably three times as far as the tailgate step mounted on the front bumper. They are really handy.

    Assessing tire condition- NDT bias tires

    I don't know what it stands for, but I do recall seeing OZ marked on the sidewall of some of my tires. I could have been on all of them. I never checked. I know I have seen it before, though.
