I'm just off I - 75 in Valdosta GA. I've got a guy in Miami who'd like some cans. If anyone is going that way... Thanks

Departing KS 21 AUG, stopping by Wes's in Memphis and picking up a spare wheel and tire. Proceeding to Mobile AL and picking up a welder on a small trailer, continuing on to Valdosta GA. The HMMWV in question is a garden variety M998 with the gutless turd of a 6.2 and 3 speed. I'll be cruising...

Nudge... any firm dates for 2018? The KAMO rally this year is the first full weekend in Oct 5th thru 7th, just a heads up to get the dates off. Even if you are not sure but think you will be coming please post how many will be with you. It will be as in years past, will take place in at the...

So far so good! This is the first real trip since I got my M925 onto 16's. I've taken a few little 40 mile trips to shake things loose and adjust the new seat and retorque lugnuts, but this is really first extended drive. Driving about 200 miles each way. KS and NE back roads, speeds 50-60...

I'm just now starting to go through a drash trailer I bought last year. It has fluids, and I'm ready to try cranking it...

So I bought a $50 set of lockers at GL auction. The terms are that an approved rigger must be used for load out. They have a list of rwo approved riggers. You may not do it yourself. The rigger fees are not available until after you have won the auction. They want $700. Obviously I'm...

First time I've seen this. Anybody know anything about it?

Needs hauled, not driven. It runs and drives, so it can probably be driven onto your trailer. Weight is about 23k. Brakes INOP. Towbar is an option. Timeline next week or the week after. Looks like about 500 miles. $600 anyone? I've also got stuff to trade... The default option is I go after...

Tom is a good guy! He came by to pick up the free WMO today and stayed around to help me move out of the house in MO. This was above and beyond any reasonable expectations. I owe him big time...

Looks like exhaust manifolds to me. They appear to be aluminum. I suspect that they may go to a generator or something similar which is why I am posting them here.

My welder has been living on an M105A2, but I'd like to be able to reach it better from the sides for oil changes and such. I sold the bed off the M105, and planned to mount the welder on the chassis. That plan died when I left the chassis parked in the field. Someone driving by saw it and...

Won my item. Paid for my item. Payment cleared. No release code? That's strange... called customer service. I was informed that due to a systems' glitch even items that don't have an EUC have their release codes held for EUC. Tech support is supposed to fix it. Timeline for resolution unknown...

Any reason not to use 395s on LMTV rims on an M129A4? This would get me dead level with the tow vehicle (M818 on 395s), and would provide for commonality of spares between the two. Total height doesn't look like it'd be an issue, and distance between the rear axles looks sufficient. Am I...

"Categories of Risk", or "When Everything is Emphasized Nothing is Emphasized" Warning labels. Everything has one or more. Every medication says not to take with alcohol. The sleeping pills warn about causing drowsiness. What do we accomplish? We teach people to ignore warning labels, so that...

A couple of weeks ago, I picked up an M923 and drove it from near Chicago to just south of Albuquerque. Unlike most of my trips, this one was relatively uneventful in the scheme of things. The truck is a KS RSMS truck, which already stacks the deck in my favor. Further, the previous owner...

I bought a truck from GP early fall of 2015. It didn't have a date stamp on the data plate, so I had to fill out the manual request for title, which I did. They lost it. And the 2nd one. The 3rd one was sent certified with a return receipt. They got that one. January rolls around and I still...

So.... I've got an M818 coming my way. I earned it. It's compensation for a truly ungodly amount of driving. There's really not much left to do to it. The previous owner went through it rather thoroughly, and optimized it to suit his needs. It has been equipped with turbo and pyrometer...

I've got a ring off a soft top that goes beneath the LWS. I see no reason that this ring wouldn't work equally well with a hardtop. At worst, this provides you with dimensions for making your own openings. This one is constructed of fiberglass and aluminum (or it might be stainless, I didn't...

I've been occupied the last few days transporting a Halftrack 1600 miles. It started off innocuously enough - loading was easy. In fact , it was so much fun we did it twice. The first time we loaded it forwards, and the weight distribution was suboptimal so we unloaded it and turned it around...

I'm wandering loose again... Here's some pictures -
