    who does m35a2 restorations on the east coast?

    There are members in Florence, Sumter and I think the Conway/MB area that might be closer to where you are. Ferro and I are both in the Columbia area, and we're both about 20 miles from the club compound in Richland Northeast. Jeff in Holly Hill might be interested, PM me your info and I'll...

    Government Liquidation ***BUYER BEWARE***

    Since I can find water cans for $20-25 each, or less, and gas cans in good shape are $40 and more, GL did you a favor. Sell the gas cans and buy the water cans that are already on the market.

    Painting a non-MV truck

    First thing to do is to get the surface smooth (600 grit smooth) and then use rattle can Rusty Metal primer on it, over everything, let it dry a couple of days. Then sand any runny spots, get another coat anywhere it's thin and let that dry. Only then do you get out the topcoat paint, starting...

    Yep! The tail lights are always in another time zone, and if he's pulling a trailer he has to get a third watch!

    New from SC

    Dan, Come out to the MVCSC compound some Wednesday evening (we are there usually from 4 till 9) and you can get lots of information on deuces! GPS coordinates 34.069187, -80.909885. Adam has some good toys also, so you can meet up with him on other days.

    Intake and exaust manifold off, some questions about putting it back together

    Since the nuts go on bolts, use the torque values for the equivalent bolts.2cents

    new chat

    Steve, I agree on the newer versions of FF (anything above 4 is merely another patch of the same old stuff). I'm still trying to use FF3.x because 4+ is such a mess, in many, many ways. I figure it will take the Mozilla team another three or four hundred levels to make any headway and by then...

    Question about changing tire in the field

    The GI's that were/are doing tire changing, have much newer tires/wheels/nuts to work with, not the ones that have been rusting solid for the past 10-20 years (or longer). Best thing you can do for your truck is to take them off and give them some anti-sieze while you are at your shop/home/lz...

    Prc-77 value

    If it's only for show, you could get an empty case 524 and an empty case PRC-77 with just the handsets and not have to fool with the rest of the cables. With the MT-1029 base, you would have two 'radios' for less than $450. Your call.

    Trying to hang in here on new updates

    The longer a program exists, the more security issues will be found with it. At some point it becomes easier to replace it than continue to patch because each new patch must be tested to insure that it does not break an older patch, or introduce a new cause of failure. Our old system was that...

    Looking for a TM

    Have you tried Google? I found the link to the manual as the first one in a list of 24,300 results: http://joe.czarnik.net/pictures/d/1105-1/M923_Transport_Guide.PDF

    Prc-77 value

    Do you want a manpack radio, or a vehicle mounted radio? To make a PRC-77 into a vehicle mount, you have to add the AM-2060, which is a couple of hundred, to the MT-1029, which are usually not bad, the cables, the antenna, the antenna base (MX-6707) the mounting bracket, and the...

    Nartron Turn Signal Switch Question

    Yes, and a jeep, and a HMMWV, and several others. It's a military standard switch to simplify the supply system.

    Demill scrap cargo trucks??

    The DEMIL Status comes from the government. GL usually does not like it any more than we do, since they get more money in the non-demil auctions.

    MEP derated power

    Lots of people have talked about how strong these generators are under normal circumstances, and several of us have commented about the Army testing method to determine the limits of power output. Well, I found a picture, courtesy of GL that explains it much better, and more definitively than...

    EMP vs MEP003a & 2

    Jerry, As said in another post, if you can get cell phone signals (or other wireless device) when inside, it's not EMP shielded. As far as the concrete is concerned, yes they can bounce, mainly through the rebar or wire in the concrete - some of it is 'outside' some of it is 'inside' but they...
