    New to me 8x8

    you're funny @Jbulach - took me a minute to realize what you did and I think you're nutty?! (now..to empty a radiator bone dry so we can technically say we filled 'that' motor with air hm?)

    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2024 - November VOTE HERE!

    regarding no suspension..I guess that for forking, it makes sense as you want it to be the same front height/ride no matter whether its empty or lumping a extra-big full container knowing that its likely certain people get quite used to 'their' tractor to the point that eventually they could...

    The Humvee takes off on its own like if someone flipped the "After Burner" switch.

    @MarkM maybe you'll like to try an ex-jet engine and see what it does (if it doesn't dry up your tiny fuel tank too quickly first) but..who knows!

    Brakes.. oh my...

    he meant it in comical jest but a trucker humour book I have had the driver basically mentioned "whats this about air supply? I'm paid to go, not to stop! well ok..famous last words there.." but yeah to be honest I've heard a few small stories about any sort of vehicles (non-military car...

    MV of the month November 2024 nomination

    *snorts* will someone please fork @Migginsbros off to somewhere else out of my sight right now?? (I'm just joking but I sound like one of these corny 1980's tv show with being a frustrated human speaking at a sharp tone)

    HMMWV so quiet can have a normal conversation on the highway without yelling

    @kdaniels technically one also could simply leave the window/door open for "natural a/c" but that depends on both the climate and the vehicle altogether tho mind you. even then the landrover had dashboard "a/c" as long as the road was not too extra-dusty .. and although its hard to find them -...

    interesting SH405 armored 404/S Unimog

    thanks @Mogman it was night before (and after a bit of a long day) so yeah sorry about the initial title and which of I don't mean to be something for asking this but I sort of wonder what kind of transmission type these might have, probably a more 'basic' something as I can't think that the...

    interesting SH405 armored 404/S Unimog

    I did a quick search for 'sh405' and it doesn't seem to have ever been mentioned on this forum so I decided to make this new post for now.. enjoy this one small photo if you want to see something a bit different aka taking an unimog and throw away everything to do with the factory body but to...

    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2024 - October VOTE HERE!

    not to be rather a bit offtopic in a silly way: to @Migginsbros and others I funny enough found another plane-playing unimog? ;-) https://trucksplanet.com/photo/mercedes/unimog_403-421/unimog_403-421_12052.jpg (condor is german if you were wondering)

    Wanna hear a dumb idea?

    well it depends what kind of hinges they used on that type your pickup has.. beside as far as I perhaps understand it a lot of aussie truck dollies have their own passive travel inhibiter built into the hinges as theres practically no chains or hand-holding needed for a dolly's tongue to stay...

    @Migginsbros just what the hell..is that an another concept or its a real production vehicle?

    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2024 - October VOTE HERE!

    heh @Migginsbros I don't mean to make you freak out aka go through your poor house's roof but if you want a worser example of an engine literally separating the driver and non-driver seats physically apart from each others then feel free to look at these concepts...

    Re-introduction

    heh sounds like a typical "teen ego", at least it also sounds like you'll revert it back to something more normal soon enough? (from you not saying anything toward that I hope this poor pickup does not have "redneck suspension" on it thankfully??)

    The right to travel

    @Ashley P its an annoying "ego in capitalism" sort of problem (as I have no clue how else to word it right now sorry! heh) in one certain specific way: look at it re an older hatchback car is a good economy car as it only had a 90hp gas engine that still could get up to 60mph in a fairly short...

    just to humour the shocked @marchplumber here I'll simply point to (have fun..)

    Electric power steering for M35A2 Deuce

    @Cajunkr mind your silly final words, equine lovers have their own takes on that too. especially with comparing a young rider who fell off then immediately get back up on like nothing versus the old adult wanting to take a while to check that they haven't broken anything [in themselves] yet oh...

    Multi fuel beginner

    @LuckyWolf not to be too silly toward the end of this subject but I'll just quietly warn you to not try put a full can of pop and banana peel into your fuel tank tho ok? the deuce simply isn't a oct2015-upgraded delorean allright? (hehehehe)

    Telescoping rough terrain forklift

    agreed with @NY Tom then again when you think about it they sometimes have to fudge cargos into 'disorganized' busy spaces so it makes perfect sense to have full steering agility. its not like a sterile grid of an indoor warehouse where its too easy to expect rear steering to always get you to...

    USCG SPC SW 24’ Boat

    particular long-strung wires on old poles are indeed sometimes a bit of a funny headache. I know theres one place (village 2-lane street with hard curbs) where a typical food delivery truck has no problem using the cafe/restaurant's driveway off that street most of the year, but from time to...

    Multi fuel beginner

    as a small note: also in the tm's you would find jet fuel as one of the official fuel mix, then again when you think about it in a military sense it helps that the fuel used to work planes to an outpost(my word) dirt(again) airport can then be the same resupply fuel used to fill up the m35/m36...
