    MV of the Month Nominations December 2014

    I'm only allowed to nominate 1 for the month and I'd love to nominate some of my friends trucks. I stand with Zout and it's been a few days so I affirm my nomination of Tiggers Jeep and the Admin Staff hasn't poo poo'd on it. Sure, it is a CJ but it looked military and he was certainly the...

    Leesburg, GA Christmas Parade

    Checked with school, they are fine with leaving tractor and trailer in the bus parking lot. If you go straight there, it'll be to the left of the high school as you look at it from the highway.

    Leesburg, GA Christmas Parade

    We have to be lined up at 0900 so I'd like ya'll to arrive around 0800 at my house. I don't have connections to anyone any closer but the start point is at the high school. Don't know if you'd get in trouble for leaving the tractor and landoll in the bus pickup lot but they may not mind. I'll...

    Leesburg, GA Christmas Parade

    Ya'll can but for my Soldiers, "If it ain't raining, we ain't training"! We're rolling either way and hopefully it won't rain. My daddy summed if up for me years ago with a saying. "Sugar melts in the rain, S#$% doesn't so I have nothing to worry about"!

    Leesburg, GA Christmas Parade

    325 Thundering Springs Road, Leesburg, GA, 31763. Use the bus turn around and park in the front yard with the tractor. I've got drill that morning but Lee should come around with some biscuits and coffee very shortly. I'll be there soon to try and direct and line up the convoy. I hate that I...

    M1008 Front Brake Upgrades? Master Cylinder?

    In your signature, you say you have a 383 so I'm assuming a stroker 350 with a 400 crank. Mine is bone stock with the hydroboost setup and will lock up all 4 whether loaded nearly as heavy as you or unloaded without too much pedal effort. How much vacuum is the truck pulling at idle and how...

    Glow Plugs

    I run AC60G's with great results. I would recommend removing the resistor from the firewall and powering the glowplug relay from the 12 Volt bus bar on the firewall. All you have to do is enlarge the hole on the ring terminal slightly and it's plug and play. It's covered on here, search is...

    M813 Clunk..

    I recovered an M818 for a guy and it would do the same thing. I mean it would almost feel like a driveshaft broke out from under the truck. I read the advice on this site and rebuilt the sprag selector on the transfer case. Still not fixed, I took the transmission tunnel apart and found a...

    MV of the Month Nominations December 2014

    Tigger and his Jeep. I know Matthew is no longer with us in flesh and that is a shame but I'd like to nominate his Jeep anyhow as I don't feel anyone ever leaves us in spirit.

    Prepping to buy a Deuce for farm use. Couple Questions..

    I bought my Deuce 5 years ago and have beat the heck out of it in that short time. 5,000 pounds in the bed is what it was made to handle off road so it should handle that tractor just fine. Many people on here may disagree with some of the things I've used mine for. Mine is a good runner and...

    Leesburg, GA Christmas Parade

    Zout, You don't have to bring a 5 ton to attend. I drove my Trans Am to your last Cookout instead of my Deuce and that fuel cost factored into that for me. I turned in the application this morning and probably cannot add another vehicle at this point but I could ask. Find someone with a...

    Leesburg, GA Christmas Parade

    PB, I can drive Proud in the parade and have one of my Soldier's drive my Deuce!!! I've got plenty of room to stash the tractor / trailer combo on my 2 acres so that won't be a problem. I'm just glad ya'll are coming!!!

    Leesburg, GA Christmas Parade

    It's that time of year again. I've got to turn my entry in for the Leesburg Christmas Parade which will take place on the 6th of December. I got the ugly news that I cannot take my National Guard M1089A1P2 Wrecker again as they got some guidance from higher that their trucks are no longer...

    First vulture!!! I'd be interested in an A2 Tractor in good shape but I'd want the deal to be legal so don't cut those up!!!

    2014 Columbus Georgia Veterans Parade

    Today was one of the most humbling experiences that I have ever had the opportunity to experience. I was able to bring Lee and the boys this go around and show them just how supportive the people of Phenix City and Columbus are of this Country's Veterans. She left me with my youngest son to...
