    Anyone here win this M820 in KY?

    I was going to watch this M820 in KY, but the darn hotel net pooped out for a few days, so I was wondering if anyone here won it.

    GL M105's in STL

    If anyone here bought a GL M105 from the St. Louis location on the last event, beware. They have all been moved to a different location, and it looks like they were treated rough. Several have the taillights knocked out, fresh dents, flat tires, and it seems like every one of them was full of...

    Shop Trailer recovery complete!

    After previewing a M809 series Machine Shop truck for another member last year, I have been on the look-out for one. With the price of the trucks being fairly high, I was lucky enough to find this trailer. It is a Southwest body with a build date of 1982. The vast majority of the tooling...

    TM for a "Machine Shop Trailer" needed

    Does anyone have a copy of the TM for these trailers? I don't think they have an "M" number, but if they do, does anyone know what it is?

    M816 Main Hydraulic Pump Leak Fixed

    My M816 had a known hydraulic fluid leak when I purchased it. (the previous owner informed me of the leak and it's severity, so it was not a surprise) As the leak was a static leak, the hydraulic pump seal was the main suspect. I removed the pump, and found the seal to have been damaged upon...

    GL lots being pulled

    I have heard of GL pulling lots previously but I have had 6 lots that I was currently bidding on pulled, four of which I was currently winning with a few hours to go. Has anyone else experienced this on the current auctions?

    Unique Speedo and dash layout

    Saw this while surfing the regular sites today. Appears to also have some AF blue poking out in places? The data tag shows quite an early date. It is simply amazing how long some of these workhorses have been bouncing around in the system, considering everything that has happened since the...

    Deuce winch wire rope termination ends source.

    I can source the 1/2" Esmet Electroline line of OEM 1/2" wire rope termination ends used on the Deuce winch. Cost will be $72.56 if I buy less than 25 of them. If we can get an order for more than 25 together, I can get them for $62.88. These are the GD-150-X galvanized clevis end models...

    Craigslist M38 in IL

    Noticed this tonight, about 45 minutes from my place. Looks like it is getting close to being parted out. http://stlouis.craigslist.org/cto/805423422.html Kinda falls in the "rare" category,.....maybe? Sorry if someone gets offended. I would hate to see it get junked... Could maybe...

    I need a load moved from LA to IL, please...

    I need a load of 14, 11.00 x 20 5 ton rims and tires, and a M332 brought from New Orleans as close to SOUTHERN IL as possible. I would entertain any combination of options. (i.e. meet part way, deliver something half way to you, etc.) Looks to be approx. 625 miles on I-55.

    Empty trailer to and from IL to MS

    I will be heading to Southhaven MS (Memphis TN) from Chester IL next week to retrieve a motorcycle. If anyone needs anything moved either direction, let me know. I have an 18' car trailer with approximately 5000 lbs. of hauling capacity. I can also store stuff at my place as an...

    Another reason to check your Deuce REALLY well....

    I deadlined the deuce last fall after my brakes on the drivers side rear/rear hung up. Ordered all of the parts needed from OD Iron (with great service!), and started work. Some interesting things... The brake shoe hardware upper retaining bolt has two cup shaped washers, and a spring...

    Deuce sighting (well, sort of)...

    I didn't quite know where to put this. Perhaps we need a forum category for Military Construction Equipment. Saw this on I-70 in mid Missouri on Wednesday, and had to get some shots. Interesting piece of paper on the right side of the windscreen said "Army Sustainment Command, Left Behind...

    Member "Staging Lots" ??

    Ok, a few of us were talking about the logistics of this stuff we call a hobby (addiction?). And I was wondering about the possibility of members volunteering their services for "staging lots". Say, for example, a member from MI won a GL auction in the Midwest (now who could that be?) and had...

    Ft. McCoy trailer recovery...

    I will be leaving Southern Illinois around midnight on the 3rd of Feb. to recover the trailer I won there back in November. (!?!) Some trailer space is reserved for FMJ, but there will be a little room left. Another 500#-600# of capacity is still available. I will be inspecting a couple of...
