Wonder if something simple like corrosion in the air actuators or maybe general crud got in the system? Maybe a few drops into the lines back at the differentials and maybe a drop or two at the 3 lines on the firewall would limber it up a bit? You know how it is, truck made it to the...

Yes Sir Sergeant! It was one of those big green trucks.
The really big ones.
Yes, it was green.
Taller than my truck too!
No, I didn't see the number on the bumper.
All I saw was a wall of water!
There just is no experience like being a kid again - even when you are 18 or 20. :)

No sir. Never been in a M62. Lots of things older and a lot of the old Internationals had PTO driven winches that were that way. Where the lever on the back was disengaged so "Joe Operator" wouldn't rip the back of the truck off. I remember before hydraulics that everything required...

Kinda like my 50 Barrett M82. Had to have it. Had to have the longest barrel I could find.
I really love shooting it, but I cry like a white mouth mule when I buy a crate of ammo.
My wallet stays wet for days...

It was interesting as I was reading your post. Second paragraph or so, I was thinking that the rubber brake lines.... And as I kept reading that was already part of the discussion. A whole LOT of research went into that piece of learning!

Dang right! Just a fuzz hotter than my .22LR
32 grains, roughly 1065 fps at a hundred yards, and about 85 ft pounds at a hundred yards.
Not a "lot of juice" but more than enough excitement to create a days worth of fun!

That is sad. I guess my dad was smarter than the average bear. He figured that if I wanted to drive, I would learn to drive a stick. It wasn't really an option. Here it is, go figure out how to drive it.
With all these young'uns and their whizzbang gadgetry, you would have thought that...

Maybe we can do some sort of group buy. I have one aluminum one on the front of each Ferret. Even has a set of pegs and a locking bar to hold it in place. on those vehicles. But since Snow White and the Seven don't live over here in my neighborhood - I have them off the vehicle for now in a...

Maybe it was something "unit specific" on your truck?
Could be interesting to measure voltage to see what could have been plugged in there.
The plugs on the back of my M1089 are small 3 pin (why three?) connectors that drive the Convoy Lights.
.
I love it!!! That would have to be a lot of fun for sure.
Guess I am cheap. I use gallon milk jug tops for target.
Figure I get plenty of those and cost me a lot less than a quarter.
I do enjoy nickles with a 22 LR at around a hundred yards.
At that range they deform and often trap the...

Nicely worded G744 !
I was pretty shocked when I spent 20 years doing other things - to come back to find automatic transmissions had taken over everything. Again, another something that was working just fine (the manual gearbox) and was "upgraded". I personally believe that if you can't...

Well that's interesting... I didn't see a cigarette plug on your light Ken.
Or at least I thought I wasn't seeing one.
I presumed it was a two or three pole plug...
