    MKT changing covers

    Passing on some tricks when installing the new roof canopies and the travel covers, esp the side ones. 1. Use some dishwashing liquid on the top edge (part that has the rope sewn in), getting it covered well. Next rain will wash it away. 2. Have Soldier "B" guide the top edge into the...

    Steel Soldiers emails and site issues

    sigo, the hackers go after sites that have a lot of traffic, so I guess that means we are one of the 'big boys'. It's a similar reason all the hackers went after IE, and now go after Firefox - market share - eyeballs for their message.:mad:

    M35 cover

    Chris, If the cover you have will fit from side to side, an extra foot or two in the front and back will not be a problem. Actually, you need only about 15 to 20 cm overhang in the back and the rest can be out in the front (almost enough to go all the way down and seal up the front). As long...

    Safety chains

    Agree with emr! I use 5900 pound rated chains and components on the hitch I built. But then I did build it to pull M105 trailers, not M101's!

    Bug & frustration

    Exactly what operating system is your computer using (including version and patches) and exactly what browser are you using, also including version and any patches applied). It's also helpful if you can tell the moderators/administrators what the specifications of your computer are - Amount of...

    rats........ broke my j-pipe

    And use a two liter soft drink bottle. Just need to cut out a little of the top so it will slip on. They stay on here until the engine fires up, then go sailing. If you're lazy and there is a Sam's Club, get one of the Pub Mix plastic containers. Eat the contents, throw the top away and slip...

    some pins have been jumpered. Get out the TM and find out what they are, so you can figure out why.

    1970 m35a2 missing on cyl #2

    Considering all the deuces are just about out of the military, that this one apparently has a title/registration already, hard top and a heater, YES. It's a fair price. Two or three years ago, it would have been a bit on the high side, but that is when there were 100 or more deuces for sale...

    Rt 524 power up info needed

    If you have the control cable between it and the MX-6707 in addition to the coax cable it should, but you need the rest of the antenna on the MX-6707 so it can match the frequency.

    EUC on trailer?

    It seems like the EUC's are taking less time. Maybe they are testing out the NCIC upgrades and we are the beneficiaries. Once you have an active file (at least one EUC every 11 or so months) it gets even quicker (Auction ended Thursday, EUC submitted/sent to Battle Creek Friday, Paid Invoice...

    petroleum

    Kerosene in very close to JP-8, which is approved for a multi-fuel deuce. If the FDC is bypassed the engine may not produce as much power, but it should run.

    My new mkt-85 trailer

    Tim, I'll add you to the list of folks looking for travel covers. Current conditions here at the house....well SNAFU is a bit mild. It's like the fella that wanted some complete M-59 ranges. I've got em, but it will take at least an hour of moving stuff out of the garage just to get to them...

    Has anyone hauled a M109 box on a car hauler trailer?

    Shop vans are the same length as the regular cargo trucks, so the van body has to be the same length (within an inch or two) as the cargo bed. The S-280 shelter is a little smaller because it has to fit inside the cargo bed. When in doubt, check the TM's, I did.

    Kitchen, field, trailer mounted, TFK250 Now gone to a new home.1/2018

    The neatest thing (IMHO) is the two 40 gallon pressure cookers on the TFK 250. Checking the web, a bushel is about 60 pounds of potatoes, or about 9 liquid gallons. 10 minute heat up, 20 minutes cooking, and 10 minutes cool down. That would be over 400 pounds of potatoes cooked in less than...
