Mogens Kjaer. Tell you a little bit more about him, huh? Okay. I met SSgt Mogens Kjaer in 1978 on a mountaintop in Germany called Pruem. He was my first boss in the USAF and still the best one I had. He was fair. I cannot say that about too many people. He had a very unusual gift, a photographic...

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Greeting from Denmark :-) Welcome Peter! It’s good to have someone Danish on this list. One of my good buddies in the military was a Dane, Mogens Kjaer, God rest his soul. I buried him in Germany many years ago. On a happier note, we used to convoy up to Denmark every year...

So, this is a weird parts request. I’m looking for M-series headlight parts. All I need are the 3 wires on the back of the sealed beam headlights. They are about 8 inches long and are marked with metal clamps, 17, 18 and 91. I do not need the actual glass part of the headlight. I know that all...

I need a deuce radiator. I just blew my fourth take-out. I do put some miles on my deuce, but not excessive. I think that perhaps one reason I go through so many radiators is because the take-outs are mostly 30 to 40 years old. Does anyone know where I can get a new one? I understand that I may...

RE: Update This is probably a wiener question, but here goes; Can someone please post GMA's e-mail and telephone contact info? Please remember, I be a computer ignoramus! Thanks! -Sarge

Sarge is a such a drama queen! You guys are hilarious! This thread is worthless without pics? What should I do? Strap a video camera on my helmet and go do it again? Wait a second, that sounds like a good idea.....not! I guess a little clarification is in order; I didn't exactly plan on...

Well boys, this morning Sarge crashed his motorcycle. Here is the story……. I have started to ride my M1030 (Kawasaki KLR650) to the Ranch instead of my Suburban in order to save gas. Instead of taking my normal route to the Ranch, I thought a change of scenery would be pleasant. I took a narrow...

RE: Re: RE: Lockable Fuel tank! That is a really nice set-up. With the price of fuel today, it's surprising that more fuel is not stolen. I know that in this country the second amendment makes fuel thieves nervous, but they still exist. I grew up in a country where teenagers either stole fuel...

Guys, I hate to be a spoilsport, but I think that the -10 states that an M416 is the largest (only) trailer suitable for the M1009. Although the military does not approve of the M1009 towing an M101, as long as you take it easy with the load and stay out of the mountains, the 1009 will most...

land anchor name YES! Pull-pal was the name. They are fantastic! I would never seriously off-road without one, unless there were lots of non-German trees available to hook to.

Hello Bruce! You know, I wouldn’t have been surprised to receive replies from Humvee owners; “My Humvee can leap tall buildings in a single bound”, that kind of thing. I was surprised to get a reply from one of the world’s very few HEMTT owners. Anyhoo, here’s a rather long and boring...

Thane, how about a couple of photo's of your MAN?

Jon, thank you! That is exactly what happened. When I previewed them, they were backwards, so I changed all of the descriptions. I was not a happy camper when they all displayed in the opposite order. Bjorn, thanks for the M1002 photo. Because it is a wrecker, it is a lot more rare than the...

dogbiscuit?

Rats to the photo order! I still cannot understand the order of the photo's!!! Of course, I posted them all in reverse order! Rats rats rats!

MAN parts (hee hee) Thane, you are right, we did turn in tons of parts for those trucks when Uncle Ronny and Gorby bargained the GLCM Tomahawks into the trash can. The bad news is that that was almost 20 years ago. I'm sure that 99% of the parts have rusted away or been melted down. The good...

It depends on the tube size. In Texas, 9x20 and 11x20 tubes are about $20 to $30 each. 1600/1800x20 are $66 each. I don't know how much flaps cost, except that I know that they are cheaper than tubes. I've always managed to re-use my flaps by cleaning them up and inspecting them for damage. If...

part 15 Remove all masking tape. Remove Pringles lids from the reflectors. You’re done. Now go drive it in a parade.

part 14 Wait several minutes then remove the stencils. Most MV collectors live elsewhere than Texas. Texas has some really MV friendly registration laws. My favorite is the registration number law. You can use any number you choose (as long as it’s not already in use) and stencil the MV in a...

part 13 Now spray. Better to do 3 or 4 light coats than one heavy one. You can use a spray gun or cans of spray paint. Again, Mark at Rapco sells the spray cans. I’ve seen him fill them, he uses the same paint that goes in the gallon cans. You can go cheap and buy any flat black grill paint...
