    You got the answer you were looking for, and you probably knew it all along. It's a rarity item that is not in demand. Sure you can put it on eBay/craigslist/ect for 5-10 grand and let it sit for months, if not years. Hence no reserve= actual value. Check it out on GB some time when they...

    HMMWV brakes - no pedal pressure at all, pedal to floor, then SPLAT!

    Simple. the res is split into two parts for the front calipers, and the rear calipers. with one side was drained confirms you have a leak in the rear brakes... I bet now the system is dry for the rear. Will make the rear less messy on disassembly. Remember to keep any pool shock you have...

    SF-97 Gov Planet to stop providing them ?

    As mentioned the SF 97 is a legal document. Which states any alteration makes it void. Any comment on the "off road" stamp that the titling department uses on the document after it's in GP's hands?
