I often find DMV/MVA/DOL doesn't know #(%&. In fact, in my AO, DOL is actually giving out information that's contrary to state law. They state that ANY vehicle over 26K requires a CDL - when both the RCW and WAC (State law and adminstrative code) BOTH say that a CDL is only needed for vehicles...

The true and accurate answer is.... It depends. Some states have NON-CDL class A and B licenses that are required to drive anything over 26K lbs if not in commerce, even an RV - Like Texas Some states define ANY vehicle with 3 axles as commercial, and require a CDL - Like California Some...

There is a local PNW Steel Soldiers facebook page. We usually crosspost here and there for events but there are members who are on FB that aren't on here so some things get missed.

Yukon is local to me. They have a very solid reputation here. Some of their stuff is imported, though.

Doesn't matter. TCW3 is basically a more refined, usually synthetic, version of ye olde 2 stroke oil with a better additive package that resists moisture issues and has added friction modifiers over base 2 stroke oil.

I've painted a couple vehicles - 5 tons and CUCVs. I just took a 240 grit orbital and did a once over. I use grease or oil on the windows, mirrors, lights, etc. and go to town. Only place I ever had any peeling paint was on the door sill where I stepped on it 10x a day, and on my M1031 where I...

I haven't really got them up to speed.

Have you thought about a custom fiberglass shop? Maybe one that specializes on boats? That's kinda the route I was thinking I'd take - and yes, I know it'd be expensive.

Is there a way to adjust bump stops to limit articulation? Or is that gonna cause too many issues when offroading?

From what I've researched - HRVs are fine here in the PNW. And in fact, fine for most of the country. HRVs only recover heat/cooling. ERV handles heat/cooling AND moisture. ERVs are needed in the south and southeast (not so much the southwest) due to high humidity levels. If you're staying in...

Looks pretty easy to duplicate.

You have another perfectly good military vehicle. No excuses.

Don't overthink it. Diesel is good to about -40F with anti-gel additives. As far as priming, they make pass-through electric pumps. I wired one into mine. Push a button under the hood and it primes the lines. Literally takes 10 seconds tops. I also put a one way bleed valve with a shutoff so...

I'm sure it surprises no one that I hold multiple FCC licenses... :ROFLMAO:

Video no worky

It's a voltage controlled switch. Once voltage gets above a set point it engages the relay. It's so the engine starts and charges the primary battery then the relay engages to send juice to the auxiliary/house batteries.

Nothing. It's used as a buzzword. Apparently, it worked. :ROFLMAO: Just like 'Digital TV antenna'......

Not a charge controller, just a battery isolator relay.

Not to rain on the parade, but a tubular lock is easier to pick than most other locks - other than a Masterlock. Also, if there is easy access to the wires behind it, it's not really doing anything. That being said, it'll stop 99.9% of the people that are looking for a quick joyride. I think...

I'm used to more commercially viable units, but yes, if feeding a trigger to a relay that should work. Also, when posting Amazon links, all that crap after the all caps is tracking info. The correct URL would be https://www.amazon.com/Timer-Delay-Relay-Cycling-Trigger/dp/B01HNDOCKK...
