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...
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...
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...
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...
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!
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...
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...
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!
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.
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...
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.
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.
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.
