    The Move

    Where are you headed to in Virginia? If you are coming in on I-81, I am a mile off exit 60. I can cook you a meal. Keep us up to date on your trip, and as has been said, stay safe.

    Peterbuilt air ride for my deuce?

    If they are still available, and you don't mind. I would like two of the Peterbilt emblems. Yea I second the air ride seats, they are smooth compared to bouncing down the road on a rock.

    my first buy at govliquidation Cargo Trailer, M105A2

    I must say, that is one of the nicest thumbs I have seen..... Other than the front of the tarp being torn, fixable I think, looks good.

    Pimp my pod (and trailer)

    Those M332 trailers looked brand new. I can't believe you cut them up. But that is just because I would like to have one. And it is your trailer, so cut away. For your uses I think plain OD would work fine. I am just partial to camo. Looks good so far.

    M101A3 Side Rack Fitment issue

    I have a new (VME Aug 08) 101A3 and I thought I had a problem but my bows are metal so I just took the Dremel to them. They fit great now.

    Differences between tilt column and non tilt

    Somewhere I read that you can keep the same key when you change the column. Something like as long as both columns have keys the lock core can swap between them. You need the key to pull the lock core. I don't know how to do it but I am sure a locksmith could do it for you.

    Members in Northern Virginia?

    Since I will be working all weekend, that monday for lunch would work for me. I would like to bring my truck but the pressure plate spun on the flywheel and it is pulled apart to fix it. If it is done by then I will drive it up, otherwise I will be driving my p.o.s. car.

    ORD 4" lift, stock tires

    I have a lift from somewhere (not sure), and the front sway bar is still attached to the axle. The point where it attaches to the crossmember, there are two pieces of 'C' channel steel that lower the mounts by 2". I don't know if it is some kind of special metal or just regular channel steel...

    Strange M101A2 WTF anybody got a clue?

    The Delineator Plates, the red and yellow squares, were only applied to European theater vehicles. Different motor vehicle laws over there. They were to mark the outer edges of military vehicles for civilians to see them more clearly. Vehicles with those spent time over seas.

    Iraq gun truck in Desert Camo 5 ton

    I went over with 2/23 in March of '03. A lot of the stuff I was crusing around in was still green, only some were tan. The Marine Corps didn't desert camo their trucks in any other color than tan. If they had black or brown it was field expediant. But I am partial to the current Afghan army camo...

    Using a M1102 as a M197

    Its probably a real good thing you didn't have to back up any while towing two trailers. Having a double pivot of a short and long trailer would be **** on wheels trying to back that up. Looks like the new mod is to tow with a double trailer set-up. Glad it worked out for you.

    M1009 Door tag

    Iowa must be a strange bird. That sticker has nothing on it for the purposes of titling. It only states the tire sizes and some general info about the truck. The vin is the only thing you should need for titling a CUCV. And maybe the weight. It is a Chevrolet Blazer or 1-ton Pickup. It has...

    New M1031 owner with a NP205 Transfer Case Rebuilt question

    It may be different for our CUCV's, but most diesel motors have no issue with idling for long periods. I drive a fire engine and when we go on a call it is usually outside running the entire time. There have been times when I haven't shut it off for hours. I don't run my M1028 like that but...

    Civil War re-enactment

    This past summer I was working the 1st Battle of Manassas (Virginia) 150th anniversary. A lot of DC dignitaries showed up. It was huge. If the one you speak of is worth a darn then you will enjoy it. At the Manassas one, which was a three day event, they had fields of campsites where the...

    do you prefer winches form the front or from the rear

    Install a front hitch as well as a rear hitch. Install the quick connects front and rear and then move the winch where needed. Simple enough.
