Hello All
I'm making my first pickup in Lockbourne, OH of DLA property (3100 Creekside Pkwy) this Friday at 7 AM and have some questions:
I generally carry a concealed pistol and Ohio recognizes my NC permit. Is this a military facility and if not would there be a problem with having a...
Hello All
I've got a question with a short fuze....
Is there anyone who can pick up an item that is about 20x18x12" and weighs around 50 pounds from the commissary at MacDill AFB and stick it in a box for shipping to me, please? I'd pay for your time and send a shipping label.
Thanks
Lance
Well folks I hope this isn't one of ours.....
A Ford Focus failed to yield the right of way on Bolton St in Winston-Salem Friday night and turned left in front of an M44 series truck with a winch and got broadsided. The Focus driver is in the hospital with life threatening injuries which is...

I may have a GL item from Warner-Robbins being picked up by MDMorgan and he's checking with a buddy to see if he's headed to Aberdeen and can help get the item there.
If he isn't going I'd gladly pay someone to tote the item to Aberdeen. I won't be at Aberdeen due to one of our sons...
I may have a GL item from Lockbourne being picked up by tabr123 that I'd gladly pay someone to tote to Aberdeen. I won't be at Aberdeen due to one of our sons getting married that weekend but several friends will be there and could take the hand-off.

Well, if I were more organized this thread would have started a few months ago when the M41A1 Walker Bulldog TankLady AKA Angie G. and her hubby Jack G. (for the old timers in the MV hobby-40 years or so) own was running a might under the weather...
The power pack is out and we're working on a...
jatonka and I have been discussing this for our M915A1 tractors for some time so I spent some time this week checking into this. I'm not a PTO guru so much of what I am relating here is from folks who are gurus and I'm a bit like a 6'4" sock puppet on the subject. Mostly, I'm just passing...
Like many of us I buy and sell parts and often need to ship things. Occasionally I need to ship to (or receive from) overseas. I have accounts with UPS, FedEx and a less than truckload shipping broker so sometimes it can take a while to find the best shipping price but for most smaller...
Does anyone know if the control box for the NHC 250 in the M809 trucks is used in the NHC 250 powered M939s? I plan on selling my M813A1 and deuces and going to M939 series stuff and am trying to find out if the brand new control box I have in shelf stock can be used on a M939 or whether I...

OK, so a buddy's M1009 key wouldn't turn when one of his kids was using the truck and called mechanic to come to the mall and "fix" it.
Instead of doing it the correct way by pulling the steering wheel and drilling it out they broke the lock mechanism out of the column.
There's a hole in the...
On the way back from the Gilbert show on Sunday AM I decided to see what mileage the M35A2C w/w was getting with the S-280 camper in it and towing an M105 trailer at around 4,000 pounds. The S-280 likely weighs about 2,600 pounds. I was interested in how much the taller profile of the shelter...
Does anyone know what an M809 Dana 6453 transmission weighs? I may drop mine to find out why there are some ferrous metal flakes in the oil and why it is having problems downshifting.
I can get the top cover/shifter housing tilted to one side but despite the -20 manual showing that the top...
Hello, All
My M813A1 idles at 600 RPM and I know that's the lower edge of the intended 600-650 RPM range. It rattles and shakes from the harmonics but smooths right out at around 660-670 RPM so I want to adjust it up.
I've looked in the -20 and searched the "5 ton and up" forum with "idle...
