    John at MCLB Albany Gov Planet

    I give Commendation to Mr. John (Hase?) who mans the site at the Swift Trucking yard just south of MCLB Albany, Ga. He has been a tremendous asset and a friend. He may not realize it but I have told him the horror stories of doing pickups for members on here who purchased stuff when GL had the...

    Hercules Engine Date Code?

    My Deuce had a new in 1992 Hercules in it. The truck was a 1971 and no data tags or stenciling that would indicate a rebuild of any kind during its life. Last using unit at 1-145th AVN on Fort Rucker and it likely spent the great majority of it´s life in that Aviation Battalion. Clinto bought...

    2 x Power Manufacturing MCTWS welding trailer in Albany GA need hauled to Arizona

    If anyone is considering hauling these, please keep in mind that you're going to need at least two straps per trailer to keep the roof down in the front. It's a hinged arrangement that opens up to provide shade for the work surface on the rear of the trailer. Originally, there are rubber...

    2 x Power Manufacturing MCTWS welding trailer in Albany GA need hauled to Arizona

    Leg one of the journey is sorted out. I will pick these up during my lunch break and haul them behind my Silverado over the next few days. That will allow the OP ample opportunity to sort out shipping. Turns out the truckers are quoting above 2K to haul them and he has paid less than that to...

    MV of the Month Nominations, August 2016

    We will throw General Nonsense into the fray once again! Here he sits with his new shoes on and my little buddy who helped install them!

    2 x Power Manufacturing MCTWS welding trailer in Albany GA need hauled to Arizona

    Not sure how I missed this request. If they are still on base, I can help get them off and move them to my front yard until you get shipping arranged. 229-364-2842, Joseph.

    2016 Ga Military Vehicle Rally buy/sell/trade thread

    Mr. Timntrucks, you need to purchase another case of Nattys to pay for that towing light set! Other than that, I am good but I really hope some vendors wanting to sell some stuff show up this year. When I was broke 3 years ago, they were plentiful! Now that I have a few spare dollars, they...

    Gainesville, Ga. Touch-a-Truck August 6

    As a Father to currently 7 and 9 year old boys, I guess the Kinder Gentler Ron left the room for that post. Oh well, such a shame as to how some view kids. We had no clue at that age either but we had good parents to show us. If in absence of my parents, I got some education from other people...

    Has anybody made or found a 24v tow light?

    I have hauled 2 M105's in the bed of an M1078 LMTV before for the National Guard. They'll fit if you can get someone to load them.

    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2016 - July VOTE HERE!

    I got nothing!!! I voted for Tankdriver as that vehicle is in an entirely different class and level of involvement. Mine is certainly nice and a non-restored workhorse but the story alone is worthy of support. That is what go me a win last year with Sarge and why I would ask anyone to vote...

    Cummins NHC 250 vs Mack ENDT 673

    I am simply contemplating. I use my trucks for work and play and have a line on a M54A1 with the ENDT 673. It is a very stout truck but I want to gauge whether it can handle the same tasks as an M923A0 with the old nifty 250 in it. It would be classified as an M923A1 due to the addition of...

    Cummins NHC 250 vs Mack ENDT 673

    I have a quick question. Are these two engines anywhere near the same ballpark in regards to horsepower and torque output? I know what is in the manuals but can they be tweaked reliably to perform basically the same?

    I spotted 6 lugs on the steer axle passenger wheel, still a Deuce.

    M923A1 rocking back and forth

    Arny, Try to be more descriptive but I think I understand what you are saying. If I let me M923A1 sit for more than about 2 or 3 weeks, one of my tires will feel as though they have slightly flat spotted. I feel like it is my passenger side inner axle tire that is the culprit. It isn't...

    M925A2 Hauling capacity

    Wes, I may be confused but I think you sent me a scale ticket when you picked up a load from my house showing over 13,000 on the steer axle? If I am confused, please clarify and I do not know the DOT laws that apply.

    Papabear, I was hoping someone smarter than me would choose the picture. Since I have been instructed to place my hand on the button, I will go with this. General Non-Sense is the M923 on the left. Respectfully, Joseph

    General Non-Sense! 1984 AM General M923A0 now wearing 14R20 tires!!! Hard working old truck!

    M925A2 Hauling capacity

    I will chime in with not so much what they will haul in the bed but what kind of weight they can tow without much effort. I recently picked up a stacked set of M322 Engineer Equipment Trailers. Roughly 11,700 pounds each so 23,400 combined. Truck handled it with ease but I believe an air...

    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2016 - June VOTE HERE!

    Mike, I think the LMTV series of trucks are nice but I voted for Bert simply because of the amount of hard work and attention to detail he put into that truck. He also campaigned his tail off, much like I did when my CUCV won last year. I still had to enter it a few months in a row and lost...
