    M1078

    . So, your post above says that you already have an Arizona drivers license. The address that you have on that piece of plastic should be what is on your title. You don't have to sell the M1078. You just "move" to your new state. Worthy of mentioning: Having two drivers licenses from two...

    Oil Pan replacement 6.5 L NEED HELP

    . Starter has to come out first... Otherwise you just can't reach the pan bolts. I know you will - but be sure to disconnect the battery cables first!

    M1079 government cost estimate? 2008 model.

    . So sad - but truer words were never spoken.

    What is this part? / What fluid goes here?

    . 80/90 Gear oil especially in hot climate - though I can say that we had trucks from Florida to Virginia and west toward the ends of Kentucky. All of those trucks ran the same gear oil. 80/90 in the manual gearboxes, transfer cases, and axles. Deuces and 5-Tons. Never had a minutes problem...

    CARC Safety

    . No, I was definitely not for policing either. I was just hoping that if you knew more than we did - and that we (you) could share information. I have a M871 trailer that is in bad need of paint and I searched for a while to find somebody who understood CARC and is willing to wetblast it...

    Truck TITLE

    . Every state is going to be different, but have you tried a different DMV location? It is possible that the people you are talking to just are "stuck in their ways" and their default answer is no. What you are doing is no different than if you had built a vehicle from scratch and you needed a...

    Battery Disconnect Quick Question

    . Dang Milcommoguy , That writeup is about the best explanation of WHY you need an equalizer. AND is has the best way to attach the disconnect switch I have seen. Best part is that it seems like you even had fun writing it up too.

    CUCVRUS Repair Projects

    . I have done a lot of things. I have broken a lot of parts too. Even had a drive shaft tumbling down the highway - but I have never seen that happen! THAT would have been exciting. Mine was a rattle, rattle, clank, clunk, and then quiet. The roaring silence! Quick to grab the key, punch in...

    New M1165 owner with questions

    . Agreed! I can remember being a youngster and smoking the tires was the thing to do... Don't know if you have ever heard of a "swear jar" or not, but I fashioned something similar. It was the "burnout jar" and that was how I bought tires. Eventually I made the car go faster, but as I did...

    New M1165 owner with questions

    . Hi Jay, I personally think you would have a lot more fun driving your truck around on the road and rumble along down the dirt roads. Then maybe through a creek or two or three... Maybe I am just old, but I just can't quite understand pulling another truck backward and potentially tearing up...

    CNC Mill

    . I wonder - if I was going to spend an entire sack of money - to build myself a nice overlander truck... Would I spend a small stack of money to build a 1/8th scale version of my dream truck? Should it be done with plastic in a 3-D Printer? OR, would I spend way too much time and money to...

    CARC Safety

    . Hi VanisleDave , I just did a quickie search here @ Steel Soldiers and found 200 mentions of "CARC". I think there is a limit of 200 returns on a search but I can't prove that. I don't believe that we have a person here that is responsible for the Safety of our Members. With minor reading...

    Soldiers and Marines paying to pimp their HMMWVs

    . For sure! Teachers spend quite a bit of their money for supplies. Lots of schools give each teacher in a school ONE carton of paper (that's 5000 sheets) of printer paper for a school year. That would be 142 single pages assuming 35 students in a class. Half that if it was a two page...

    Soldiers and Marines paying to pimp their HMMWVs

    What have you done WITH your FMTV ( trips, Rescues etc) NOT: fixes, updates etc

    . Seems like a first class trip to me! Poor puppy... All tired out. DEFINITELY and inside in with the AC would be the only way to be there! Glad you had a big time.

    Wire size to use?

    . I second that! That really is the best part of these trucks and their public persona.
