I do not know but I will find out. Mike did tell us that he just spent $180K on a brand new shower facility that is supposed to be far improved over the old one. I never used the old one, but several folks told me it was "less than ideal". I will find out and post the info here.

Not sure I'm following the second sentence. You pass the desk on your way to both entry/exit points. Our goal is to have one choke point, so our operators can brief attendees and D-town's staff can make sure everyone has signed the waivers of liability, paid their fees, etc.

Oops-forgot to answer the second question. The SSGR welcome desk will be on the dirt road, sort of between the red barn and our field, where the ingress point is for the vendor field. Near one of the red arrows on the map that is posted in .pdf format.

We're closer than everyone realized-less than 90 days out I think. I understand. Like I said, I was made aware of this last Thursday and ST and I immediately scheduled the time to go out there and get a handle on the changes as fast as possible. The new area is within sight of the old-It's a...

Attention: Major changes for the GA Rally. You need to read every word of this post. If you have a short attention span, go get some Ritalin and come back and read every word of this. Last week I received an email from Mike McCommons, the owner and operator of Durhamtown. He...

A .020 overbore would require pistons. I wouldn't reuse pistons at much more than a mild hone job (.005+). I think you need to do a leakdown test and see if the compression is escaping past the rings or valves. What's the TM say one of these should have? They are low compression anyhoo, so...

Every piece of information about these is here: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/2780-frame-kit-hoist-m35-lets-talk-about.html

I've had plenty of engines where fuel pumps failed and allowed fuel contamination of the oiling system and none required a rebuild. As the others said, fix the pump, change the oil, run it and see if it either knocks, smokes or has insufficient oil pressure.

Yank harder. Many members here can explain how. :-D I use my slide hammer to get them out and it's workout.

Outstanding!

AnonymousOne is really working his search karma! :beer:

Wanna see the other pics I got today? They'll be up soon. C 8)

You did a hel......... heck of a job. Amazing. If you ever make it to the Ga Rally, I will have a spare frosty beverage in the cooler for you. To bring that truck back and do all the stuff you did, is a lot of work.

Not much-as a takeout core, I'd pay maybe $250. There are a couple jeep parts sellers that sell rebuilt engines with warranties-that's what I'd do, if I wasn't going to rebuild my own.

I think he's referring to the large clips and felt washers at the bottom, see attached pic. I didn't see these on TNJ or Erik's site, so I think Memphis or White Owl. Memphis sucks, so try George @ White Owl first.

And what about people who borrow/rent trailers? Should we ask our friends to let us convert their trailers? The whole point of the mobile converter box is flexibility-flexibility to grab the converter and enable hooking up any US/NATO mil MV to any civvy trailer. :grin:

I have experience with this. I've pulled 2 multis and 2 beds (deuce) with mine, which has casters and is being operated on a smooth surface. No problems whatsoever as long as you move slow. The weight involved (1400+ lbs) seems to keep the load from beginning to swing. Think about how much...

If that's a one ton gantry crane, Jerry's new tractor is a 1/4 ton. That thing is epic.

Yeah, that video isn't 6 weeks old. It was posted in November, 2011 by Lockheed Martin (it's their youtube channel). We had a thread here on SS about it back in December, 2011: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/planes-helicopters/80173-new-f-35b-anyone-seen.html

Dude, that truck looks perfect. Congrats! I can't wait to see it. now you just need a civvy trailer, CARC'd up to haul all your and your buddy's stuff around.
