RE: Convoy to SteelSoliders Georgia Event in September
I am in the Anniston/Oxford area. Drop me a PM letting me know the route ya'll plan on taking. We may join up somehwere alomng the way.
Guys,
The the Georgia SteelSoliders are talking about getting together again this fall to have a ralley at the Durhamtown Plantation Offroad Park in Union Point, Georgia. on October 24th thru 26th.
I am thinking about getting a convoy up to make the trip over early Friday morning. I plan on...
Guys,
This morning I called Coy Short who is the President of the GAMVPA to see where their ralley will be held. Coy said that they are undecided but it looks like it will be north of Atlanta in the Alpheretta or Kennesaw GA area. We will stay tuned for more info.
And yes, I do plan on...
Hey Georgia Guys,
Where are you going to have the Fall MV ralley and swap meet this September?
I heard it was moving from Peachtree City up to a park in Kennesaw GA.
Give us some details and dates.
I also suspect your problem is more related to worn tierod ends or steering parts than anything else. The rotating of the tire probably just made the problem show up worst.
I have seen this quiet oftn in older vehicles such as jeeps.
Al,
The jack was just set there and I'm sure it is not in the correct position. I am also looking for the correct mounting position and items. I'm sure I could find the info in the manuals which are out in my shop. I don't ever think about it until when I am in the shop.
Here arelinks to pictures of my 1984 M1009 that I recently finished.
This past Saturday we drove it 210 miles round trip upr to the Huntsville Veteran's Museum to attend a MV swap meet.
I have my eye on a Mite so this M1009 may be for sale in the future.
Re: RE: Anyone ever added a 2nd fuel tank?
I also deal with this when filling up the pickup or the M1009. When the pump cuts off at $75.00, all I do is hang up the pump and start it again. This works well with the debit card or credit card.
I am finnishing up my restoration of my 84 M1009. I painted it the 383 CARC green and would like to put the basic Military stencling on it in flat black.
What should I do? At this point I am not ready to put unit markings on it.
As one of the Officers of the DDMVC which host the MV Swap Meet & Show, I can say that the dates are Friday the 28th andSaturday the 29th. Some folks arrive on Thursday afternoon, But the main time is late Friday into Saturday.
We have all the room we need so come on down.
For the last year or so I have ben driving my M1009 around with out the dash pad or the door weather striping. It was so loud, about the only way you could stand is was to open the windows so the loudness didn't echo inside the cab. Almost went to earplugs for anything over a few minutes.
In...
I picked up the correct Ramsey PTO (for a Model 50 or 50R winch) over the weekend and may be willing to sell it to help pay for another recent purchase. This PTO is just like the one I have for my Ramsey Model 50R winch setup.
While I don't have any info to prove it, I believe this PTO may be...

Clinto,
Did you introduce yourself to us? If so which one were you?
If you know anybody interested in a nice mule, let me know. I may be selling the mule that has the MG pedstal mount and wide tires and fenders. I will keep the wide tires, fenders and MG mount but sell the mule. It's a very...
Garry,
With all due respect, I have personnaly found that most employes at the MVPA HQ to be "part" of the problem. They are afraid to stand up and go against the BOD. The answers you receive are very slanted toward the wishes of the BOD.
Guys, I just got off of the phone with a friend who is returning home after the Little Rock Convention and this person was bringing me up to speed on the meetings that happened in Little Rock.
This friend is saying that there are positive signs that the tide is slowly turning on the existing...
