    My BIG M925A2 Project Truck Is Home

    You're a brave soul to have been out in that nasty muck this weekend. I couldn't quite bring myself to crawl out under any of my projects in the rain, so I ended up working on in-the-house projects instead. Good to hear you were able to make some progress. :-P

    My BIG M925A2 Project Truck Is Home

    Nice. When are you headed down that way next? Might volunteer to lend a hand for a couple hours just for an excuse to check the place out, if I'm free that day. :-D

    My BIG M925A2 Project Truck Is Home

    Odds are actually decent they were heading for Ft. Pickett. Were they headed up 460, or 58? There's a big lake out there in the middle of the firing range that the Navy borrows for target practice with their patrol boats. I was up there doing bridge inspections a few years ago and you could...

    Virginia Steel Soldiers Rally 2009

    Whose nice bobbed five is that? I know my wife will be drooling over those two shots when she gets home from work. I still wish we could've made it this year. And I've got all the rest of this week off, too. D'oh!

    CDL

    Fortunately, at least Virginia is exceptionally, explicitly clear on this topic. From § 46.2-341.4, paragraph 4: In other words, maybe you folks in PA and NY should just move to VA. :-D

    LDS torque numbers?

    It's easy to find the torque at any given RPM where you have a known HP value. The two are directly related. This won't give you peak TQ since that doesn't occur at the same engine speed as peak HP, but it will at least tend to get you in the right ballpark, since a lot of engines built for...

    M817 Dump Truck Height and Empty Wt?

    Adrian, didn't know you were here too! Chuck, from FSB. [thumbzup] Now, as for answering the OP's question, according to TM 55-2320-260-15-1 Transportability Guidance for the M809 series, here are the Army's official weights and dimensions for transporting the M817: Overall length, w/w...

    M185A3 Recovery out of Richmond

    Here's another vote on the 17N cut-across. I've used that route a couple of times coming back from work trips through nasty traffic (i.e. Ft. Detrick to Norfolk area when i would've hit DC around 4:00). Extra miles and stops, but a lot slower and more relaxed if you're trying to get an MV...

    Virginia Steel Soldiers Rally 2009

    We'd love to be put on the list even though we don't have an MV yet. I'm very new to the board, been lurking for about a month but hadn't yet had much to continue. Soaking up knowledge as fast as possible. I have a few "little" truck projects I have to finish up, but I've sworn off buying...
