Depending on the unit, MKT's could be equipped with double the BII of food, drink, water containers and utensils. This is because they were supporting many platoon or smaller units scattered over a dispersed area. They cooked the food in a central place and then sent one cook or one KP out to...

The three shelves are the auxiliary baking set. Heavy steel piece goes in the bottom of the M-59 where the pot rack rides, sheet with chains hangs from the four tabs that you can see with the hinged top opened (longer part to the back). This is the sheet you actually place the flat pans on to...

Walls and screens sets consist of three different lengths of sections. The long side ones have 15 clips on the top, and there should be two of them, the intermediate end walls (again two each) with the words "Fire Exit" have seven clips on the top, and the final two in each set have five clips...

I prefer to never let it get low enough to see the strainer. The tank may hold 50 gallons, but there is less than 40 that is usable on anything but flat ground.

I think so too, but I know nothing about them. But... someone who only reads what he put in the text might have a hard time figuring that out and skip the thread, when they have the answer he is looking for.

Glad to hear that Tony! I think the coffee tent went real well last year, and I have B9 reserved just for it!

Could you please specify exactly which truck this happened on. It may be obvious to you, but we in the peanut gallery like things spelled out so we can form possible answers.

319 ships pretty quick! He did for me.

Check the BEHR Paint threads to find the correct USMC green FSS (Federal Supply Service) number (it will start with 34) and the yellow. A lot cheaper to use house paint at $29 per gallon with no haz-mat fees and shipping. The 34094 (Army 383 Green) is well documented. If you are going to make...

Chris, That's about what my stripped one weighs (no air pump, no IP, no starter).

Looking forward to it!

Since the pictures show military type identification plates , it is highly likely that it is a former US Military vehicle (or someone got some blank dataplates and put all the proper information on it).

Engine -in-a-can weighs about 3150, engine alone about 1850-1900. What will your bomb crane handle?

I bought an 'engine on a piece of frame' for $500. It had the radiator, TD block LDT 465-1D with "D" turbo, transmission, air shift transfer case, master cylinder, six dogbones still attached to the rear suspension. Axles, cab, bed and the last 18 inches of the frame was about all that was...

When I send things to Poland, also in the EU, they waive the customs duties on anything valued at less than 100 USD, as long as the value sounds reasonable. When the declared value is zero, they assume someone is trying to evade the taxes. Same thing when sent via one of the courier services...

At the rate I'm going, I may never have to replace air filters either! Most of my units get less than 10 hours during the course of the GA Rally. Ones in the sink trailer (Field Sanitation Trailer) get about double that. That does not stop me from having a spare air filter and igniter for...

At 300 hours of use, the air filters are supposed to be changed, at 1000 hours the igniter is supposed to be changed. I've not seen any with cracks before, but since it's stainless they could have cracked because of excessive heat or too rapid cooling (IE pulled it out for some reason while hot...

Most of the gaskets are not 'solid' rubber, and the ones that are will stop AP rounds.

Spoons, forks, ladles, knives, and other utensils can be had at your local food service vendor. If you have the Polarware inserts with the green rubber gaskets, be very careful with those gaskets - they are not cheap! Last ones I purchased mail order were over $21 each plus S&H. They are...
