. Sealing out the weather... The USMC coats everything in clear silicone. Other branches do as well - for protection from sea water.

. Yes Sir! That is so true...

. That happens over here on the other side of the pond too. Find yourself a good outfit to make repairs, they get "discovered" and they get too big for their britches... When the two or three folks who started the outfit did all the work, it was always done right. Then they grew, hired more...

. Welcome to the Outfit! Like @NDT mentioned, the pinion seals are leaking and the milky look in the oil is bad news. Definitely want to drain it. The diesel in there on a refill will help wash out the milk oil. Assuming that if the front is milky - the other two axles will be the same...

. Welcome to the Outfit! Be sure to at least download the -10 TM Technical Manual so you don't smoke your start box! It isn't a good read, but just perusing the book will save you plenty of money. .

. Neat little critter... You do good work @goldneagle !

. The steering box that you have looks to me like it would be just about right...

. Welcome from North Carolina! Welcome to the Outfit! You can download the TM's (Technical Manuals) so you can get information about the axles. Might need to investigate the plates on them - so you can download the right books - but all the same, some book is better than none.

. Yep. Pull out the phone book and look in the yellow pages. Call everybody and you will come up with somebody for sure... If you don't have a phone book, maybe a google will help you.

. The caging bolts for the Mk25 are more like regular air brake chambers. Too long shouldn't be a problem - compared to the M108x and M107x series. They have a short caging bolt in there because they will run into the shocks. They should be easy to do and fairly quick to install.

. Even though yours didn't run - at least yours came with doors and a covered roof! Lots of others before yours came out without doors. Chances are you will get her running. The caging bolts are something you can buy at the local NAPA or most any other truck parts place - and you need them...

. Welcome to the Outfit! Sounds like you have a pretty good plan so far. The M813/M814 are 5-Ton trucks. The M35 is a Deuce and a Half. The Deuce (assuming it is a newer version) will have an automatic transmission. They aren't bad, but if you are used to jamming gears - you will miss that...

. I dunno. It was newer than what I had - and the file isn't attached now... Maybe it has already been put into the active pubs?

. Don't forget... You too could have a calendar with these 12 mv's to hang on your wall. https://steelsoldiers.com/threads/steel-soldiers-2025-calendar.222315/post-2597204 The link above will let you place your order.

. Hi Justin, Why don't you snap a few pictures and upload them here? Then we can tell you what it is - assuming it is a military trailer?

. Yes. That is how the lighting should work.

. The link above and this one do not work...

. Nicely Done!

. Yay! Sounds good to me.

. Hey guys... 2024 MV of the Year polling is really slow. Several folks haven't even voted for themselves! Let's go take a look and vote your favorite!
