    M38 pintle hitch

    Seen too many ball hitches fail. Never seen a lunette/pintle do that. My non-military trailers have all been converted to lunettes. It also really cuts down on guys wanting to borrow them...:sneaky:

    XM708 refurb

    You might be able to source Xylene from an automotive paint store like this one: https://www.stateautopaintsupplies.com/store/Paints-&-Coatings-c173244821 It is sold as a 'reducer' not thinner. Most is available in different mixes with Toulene to tailor to seasonal temperature drying times...
