I've seen a bunch of CH-47s come out through GSA within the last year or so too. Many looked rough, but based the info in the auction (and the price) all looked air-worthy.

That's some great looking terrain. Looks like some of those two tracks and hills would make for a fun drive in a deuce.

Sure enough. The up-side is it's close to D-town. The down side is it's Ft Gordon. Completely understand on the seals. It's no kind of fun to do that on a regular basis.

Not riding trails!? Come on Mike, we've seen how you punish your 818 on trails, you can give some hip pocket training on getting a 5 ton unstuck when we have to get your 5 ton unstuck. :-D Kidding of course. You don't have to get a driver wristband if you're not driving trails. You can get a...

That mower should be painted OD.

Here's my HF crane with Northern Tool automatic braking hand winch.

I'm more concerned with jackasses standing around the fire downing moonshine with one hand and finger-fiddling or twirling a firearm with the other than I am with the possibility of unmaintained trucks on the trail. For the most part this group takes care of their vehicles fairly well. I think...

Nice T831's.

Just be sure to keep snow buildup off the tarp and bows. Snow can collapse the bows and rip the tarp.

I just don't get these guys that refuse to get titles for their vehicles. You have the SF97, get the darned title! I've gotten titles through, AK, MI, GA, and KS. It's always been easy and relatively inexpensive. Very little work was involved. For the seller in the OPs story it'd likely cost...

That doesn't help with 12v electric brakes.

I've got a 12v alternator, separate battery, and a electric 12v trailer controller. Not the easiest way, but it's the most versatile. I use the 12v for all my accessory lights and 12v auto accessory plugs. Leaves my 24v original and fresh for starting.

Those land trains weren't built for the ALCAN, they were built to resupply the DEW line. I tried to get up close to the LCC-1 (1st photo), it was in a scrap yard out the back gate of Ft Wainwright, but the yard was sold and liquidated before I could track down an owner. Fortunately I just read...

98G, you're not missing anything. Try offering to pay for the title if he does the legwork. That would be cheaper than walking away. If the title wasn't part of the original sales agreement then you should cover it anyway. I walk away from vehicles without titles, or sellers that try to say...

I've got one of the harbor freight specials in the rear of my deuce and it's THE most useful mod on my truck. I replaced the standard HF deathtrap hand winch with an automatic fwd/rev brake Northern Tool hand winch. I load and unload everything myself, I don't know what I'd do without a bed crane.

Under $900. But it looks like I found one.

This thread is inspirational. I still want to install a warn 18k on the rear of my deuce. I just haven't found one for the right price, and I'm even open to 12v since I have a dual voltage system.

Probably cheaper, easier, and safer to just get a pintle or pintle/ball combo hitch for your tow vehicle.

Be sure to post details of your rear winch install. Not many of them out there.

What's the story? Where have they been lost at and who forgot about them?
