There are two things about those connectors: 1. There is only one position when they are installed that the pins will be in direct contact when they are locked together. Figure that part out, remembering the slight twist they need to lock, and 90 percent of your problems will go away. 2. The...

Well, if you were to click on the "Forums" tab at the top, then scroll down to the "General" section, then find the first group "Steel Soldiers Rally", you would see "VA Rally" > http://www.steelsoldiers.com/steel-soldiers-rally/86219-va-rally.html where that question would be answered. In...

MitchG has (or had) some complete in the box. The top two pieces are aluminum, but the bottom one is steel and it's heavy, which makes the whole package heavy. The hanging sheet should have the larger tabs in the back when installed. Are you coming to the VA Rally over Labor Day weekend? If...

Manuals are available free for downloading, you may just have to look a little. check liberatedmanuals.com for specific manuals, after you have looked through Brooke's site - prc68.com for some background on the radios and exactly what TM's to look for. There is a separate TM for each vehicle...

First thing you need to do is to download and study the VRC-12 series TM's. The RT-246 has 10 preset frequencies and no speaker, while the RT-524 has two big dials and a speaker. Otherwise they are the same radio. Now since the main frequency that these operate on that is also available to...

$750 is a good price. The major dealers are asking $2500 and it's not uncommon to pay $1250-1500 for a complete setup. I've seen just the PTO and drive shaft go for over $400.

I'm arriving at the MVPA on Wednesday evening, after the Anniston tour and will be leaving on Saturday around noon. See you there!

Tony, I can use a gallon of brake fluid also. Mike

Don, If I'm reading the stuff posted by MWMULES correctly, you need to secure the back edges against the container, then set the two poles in the outer two corners and run ropes down to stakes in the ground to keep tension on them. If you don't want the ropes, then a frame is probably the...

Don, From the link that MWMules posted, it looks like there are two expandable poles that form the uprights of the vestibule and that may be all there is to it. The vestibule sticks out because of the ropes that extend out from the tops of the poles, probably at a 45 degree angle, which provide...

the 16 x 16 tents do have liners for the inside, and a fly that goes above the top to help moderate the temperatures (but usually for rain and hot weather). If you do get one, build some slats to go along the roof to support the canvas or the snow load could cause opportunities to get cold...

WM, Yeah, except that John's has a big generator in the front of the bed! And he leaves the cargo cover off so the 'guest workers' don't camp out in it. Hobo Joe should be able to keep your's empty for you!

Ratch, GL is making money on their (your) money, so it takes some time to get it back. DH is correct, this happens often. When the deuce instrument gauges thing first started, one member here actually had his pickup documents, arrived, loaded up and got it home before the local GL rep got the...

As I said before, I've seen the current shovels with the same NSN as the originals - they are about 2.5 inches too long because they switched from a true "D" handle to a 'tulip' type handle, which made it longer. Of course, current GI's are a couple of inches taller that the ones the shovel was...

And there are 38 bolts that hold the two halves of the can together. Grade 5 is fine, grade 8 is a bit of overkill. 5/8 x 2" NC

Get one of the green radio HF backpack/vehicular rigs and either a BuddiPole or other NVIS (look it up) antenna's. With your HAM ticket and a setting on 20 meters you should be able to reach out as much as 400 miles in any direction. If there is someone on the other end within that area, you...

Try putting your Hawkers on a plusating charger (such as the Battery Minder ones). It may take a couple of months to bring it back to life, but I've had good results so far. Last one I've been working on started out at .85 volts, and now will hold 12.46 overnight. Once it gets to about 13.5...

Don, The cans are sealed, then supposed to be evacuated (slight vacuum) then filled to 5psi overpressure with dry nitrogen. So long as they had no moisture in the engine (think antifreeze) and they keep the overpressure, the inside should stay dry. And there is an indicator window that turns...

Only if you will keep to flat ground. The cab and bed articulate independently so if you run over something on one side only, the two could be displaced several inches from their normal position. Using a large rubber 'diaphragm' between the two is a possibility, just as is done on smaller...
