Oh, where to put this thread, "trailers", or "aux equipment"????
Today I started in earnest working on my lube trailer/gen trailer conversion. My neighbor came over this morning when I got home from work, and we lifted the cover off of the lube trailer with his back-hoe. Then he was kind...
Today, after about 3 1/2 months my command post tent made it home from Eglin AFB in Florida. What a relay race that was. It all started out in September when I won the tent. I contacted Captain (Alredneck) about the pick-up, I won the tent on a Tuesday, buy Thursday (2 days later) woodywood...
I just got back into town today, and while I was out of the state phantomjeep went to Sparta Wisconsin to Ft McCoy and picked up my floodlight kits for me. He delivered them to citizensoldier, who is kind enough to store them for me for a while, until he comes down to Ohio later in the winter...
Need a pick-up at Ft McCoy Wisconsin...Please!
Hey all,
I was lucky enough to acquire a couple of sets of floodlights at Ft McCoy in Wisconsin today. I really need someone to pick them up for me and hold onto them until after the holidays or possibly get them closer to Ohio.
Driving up to...
First off let me make this perfectly clear...I MEAN ABSOLUTELY NO DISRESPECT TOWARD OUR FORMER CHAPLAIN AYMYMAN30YearsPlus!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was glancing at the forum list this evening when I logged in and noticed the description under the forum title for the Chaplain's Corner Forum...it's time to...
Hey all,
First off I did search. Maybe I wasn't using the correct search parameters, but I did look.
I have a question about the multi in my deuce. I never really cared much about it until I was looking at a post by another member trying to re-time his hydraulic head. cranetruck posted a...
Hey all,
I am still in the process of getting a time and date set up with Captain to pick up my command post tent I won in FL last month, but while I'm working on getting that squared away I was wondering about tent repair kits.
I know they exist!
I have seen ones with needle and thread which...
Hey folks,
A while ago I bought a surplus 2 cylinder air cooled diesel engine from Kansas (Ft. Riley) gimpyrobb and I made the very looooong journey out to get it, and I have spent the last month or two getting it put back together. It came fairly complete, but I had to fabricate an intake...
Hey guys,
It looks like I was lucky enough to win one of the 125 "Command Post Tents" that went on GL today at Eglin AFB in Florida. :-P :-P
Now, I need someone out there in the SS Network who would be willing to pick it up for me and bring it to the GA Rally. Or any combination of picking it...
Good morning all, the time is upon us to recount yet another successful deuce recovery! This one took place yesterday at Ft. Indiantown Gap, in Annville, PA.
First and foremost, I need to send out a HUGE thank you to Wreckerman, for keeping Murphy tied up down south drinking sweet tea...
I know this is late notice, but I'm helping another member (Mahdey) with a deuce recovery in PA tomorrow morning (Friday). He wants to leave my place this afternoon to be in PA later this evening, so we can get to base first thing in the AM and be on the road after a thorough inspection. He's...
As the title says, today I started my troop seat project.
I acquired a really nice set of fiberglass troop seats a while back as the wooden ones on my truck were falling apart. My truck already had/has a new fiberglass headboard installed, so I figured I would do fiberglass all the way around...
Today I decided to get off my lazy butt and start doing a couple of things I want to get done on the deuce before it turns cold out.
I started off by putting on the cable operated drain valves I got a while ago. While I can reach the valves without crawling under the truck, it is a PITA having...
I made another trip Adlemans Truck Parts in Canton, OH yesterday, I was after a circuit breaker for my heater install. I also wanted to get a turn signal switch as the light socket in mine is burned up. And I wanted another three lever switch since the lock lever on mine no longer springs back...
Hey all,
First off let me start out by sending out a huge thank you to KsM715!!! For a fellow I've never met before, he was a huge help in doing the loadout of the small diesel engine I bought at Ft. Riley. KsM715 is a class act all the way!!!
Now that the engine is off base, I need to get...
Hey all,
I ended up winning a little diesel engine out of FT. Riley, KS yesterday, I plan on putting it on a pretty good sized air compressor I won on GL several months ago. It's in a small crate easily able to fit in the bed of even a small pick-up. I am hoping to find someone who lives...
Today, I went out to the GL warehouse at Creekside to pick up one little pallet of clean air kits for the deuce that I won.
I get there at about 0720 this morning, it takes them until about 0755 to get me though the gate, they couldn't find my invoice!!! :?: Come on people, it's on the dammed...
Hey guys,
I know this should be in the classifieds, mods feel free to delete if you like. I just wanted to take this opportunity to see if any members wanted some of this stuff before it hits the scrap yard.
I have about 16 Front splashguards for the M109a3 trucks. I have absolutely no use...
Hey all,
First off, I did a search but couldn't turn up anything specific to my issue. As some of you may know, I recently acquired an ENG-3 Lubricating and Servicing Trailer. I've been playing with the 4a032 that runs the air compressor in the trailer. After cleaning the control linkage and...
