    Dallas Texas HMMWV

    So how did your trucks come to have the MT tires and 12 bolt combat rims? All the trucks from the USMC auction had RTs and 8 bolt rims. Hmm.

    $175 to blast a M105 is CHEAP!!!!!!! Can you move to Texas?

    Dallas Texas HMMWV

    What you have stated here does not make any sense. I have done about 5 bonded titles for title-less MVs in Texas and other than the expense, it is completely painless. The bonded statement on the title can come off after 3 years if that bothers you. Edit: Bonded title is for 3 years, not 1...

    Fort Worth 5 Tons

    Look at the bumper markings, Google them if you don't know Army abbreviations/acronyms. Remember not to discuss any particular item or auction on this site per rules.

    Outfitting M1031 SECM

    I have set mine up to be my core tool crib and work center. All my tools and welding equipment is housed in the truck. I have installed a "shore power" transfer switch to power the welder and compressor from the shop circuits. Since my SECM doesn't leave the premises, this works out good for...

    Fort Worth 5 Tons

    Got my LMTV there, great bunch of folks, too bad they are about done with military trucks. They have a huge forklift for loading assists. The trucks there come from all over the US. Mine was trucked in from Alaska.

    My mud truck build bad 395/85/20 tires?

    The 395's came out with the FMTVs in 1994. Weather checking will not cause a blowout, but cracks in a crescent where a tire has been sitting flat will.

    My mud truck build bad 395/85/20 tires?

    Let me guess a Michelin? If the tire sits flat for any length of time, this is what happens. It is hard to tell, but there is internal sidewall damage. Cracks are the tell tale.

    FMTV High Speed Gears

    I'll never understand why a modern turbocharged/intercooled empty 17,000 lb diesel truck gets the same or worse fuel economy as a loaded 80,000 lb class 8 big rig.

    AS-3916 Masts - where are they??

    I see bases all over the place cheap, but no masts. Can something be adapted?

    "Rescued" M816 Wrecker

    Looks like GL sold this in Event 5308 in July of 2010. (Writing on curb side front fender) Looks like a Camp Shelby truck to me. Good luck with it, they come a lot worse.

    Wehring LMTV Mods

    Here's an alternate concept for "rally" truck protection concepts. Possibly designed by Oshkosh, this is "Hound" from the Transformers 4 movie. Looks pretty good to me, might even stencil the autobot symbol on the door of mine. (The movie is not exactly worth sitting through)
