    New girl from wv

    Welcome from SC. Plan on attending the VA Rally over Labor day (whether you're MV is running or not). It's just East on I-64 to Charlottesville, then north on US-29, to Madison, then take the old Blue Ridge Turnpike 10 miles to Syria, VA (Graves Mountain Resort). Turn right at the general...

    Which tank to get?

    Numbers beat great concepts. The Germans had at most 10,000 tanks during WWII, the USA produced 44,000 M4 Shermans, plus a number of other designs and a few thousand other vehicles on the M-4 chassis, plus what the Brits built. And the T-34's - over 75,000 were built during the "Great...

    Trouble Loading Pages (takes 30 to 60 seconds per page)

    First, clear your cache, then run a 'ping' test to the site, and a 'tracert' to see if it's taking too many hops to get there. Then run one of the many speed tests to see how much throughput you are getting to your ISP, and post all that information here. The local geeks will then have a...

    Depending on when it is I may be able to bring my MKT if you need the cooking capacity.

    Whats the biggest cover/inclosed pintel trailer?

    The problem with bigger trailers is that the deuce is rated to pull a maximum of 10,000 pounds. A fully loaded 105 is 5,000 pounds (actually an MKT is 5700 fully loaded), so once you go over twice the rated load/size of a 105, insurance is not gonna cover you 'if' an accident happens. Read the...

    Big CASE. from Fl

    I see you've relocated from Florida. Still close enough to make it to the GA Rally, Oct 9-13 at Durhamtown. MV not necessary to attend, but one might follow you home!

    Refrigerated Container with Trailer

    R134a is supposed to be an 'exact' replacement for R12, just don't mix the two. That's what I'm running in my 93 rice burner when the seals in the old compressor went south. New compressor, new flexible lines and I stay cool in the summer. If the compressor had been good, it would have been...

    So....what do you guys exactly do with these trucks???

    I got mine to build my own "First Responder Feeding System", which is five trucks (two M35's, two M109's, and an M36), five trailers (two MKT's, a 10KW power plant, and two other generator trailers, one as a water trailer and the other as a camper), and an S280 shelter (on the M36) as a camper...

    Hauling trailer to almost AL on I-20 and bobtail back

    If he's WESTbound at the 163 marker in Georgia, it will be a couple of months before he gets to your place! He needs to be going EAST bound to get home sometime today!

    2 Pin to 1 Pin Nato Adapter Plug

    There were VERY FEW ever made. It's far easier to simply replace the two pin ends with the NATO style and ust the more common adapter for vehicles with the two pin port.

    Rod Ventilated Block in Deuce -NOT- Crank Broke

    Maybe not. My (in deuce #2) engine lost oil pressure on Sept 22, 2009 and I've been in replacement mode since. Got the 'new' engine in the truck, have the front motor mount bolts in place, fuel line hooked back up and not much else. Need to get the rear motor mounts secured and start on the...

    Kirby comes a'callin

    Ft Jackson is about half way between my AO and Ferro's, so either will do!

    increase pm allowance size?

    Make it worth the while to administer if you do. I save all my PM's in a special folder - I have them going back to 2008 about every two months, and yes, there is overlap, but I can deal with it.

    TOWING A M720 mobilizer is it me or ?

    We didn't have any problems with the M832 (next size up) on towing, but backing up is a whole different ball game (and not a pretty one either). Sounds to me like the bearings might be a tad dry one one of more wheels, or the brakes are dragging.

    sink unit, surgical scrub, field unit TM?

    The Great CARNAC knows ALL, but does not always tell - he has to be asked!

    M-925 with "MOTOR" painted on the windshield...

    Maybe it was someone's way of saying 'new motor' as an 'inside hint' for a friend, hoping everyone else would think 'bad motor'. Just a guess.

    Charge Batteries in place on truck?

    Charge them one at the time by putting the proper clips to the posts. Mine will top off in an hour or so that way, then I switch the leads onto the other battery. Half a day and I'm done.

    How much Amperage/voltage goes through the master switch?

    JT has the switches you need, they just don't fit under the dash. Thanks for speaking up John!
