    BFR's Floozy

    Loaded on the flatbed for the trip north. I believe the expression "10 pounds of "sugar" in a 5 pound bag" fits here

    FLU419 SEE HMMH HME Owners group

    Does anyone have the wiring diagram for the keyed switch on the dash? The key was broken off in the switch and the switch was removed. I will be repairing it the right way when when I can find an appropriate switch, but I would like to come up with a work around for now.

    Front Mounted Winch Verification

    Is it possible to verify which models a winch is suited for based on its data plates? A Garwood (20K LB) winch w/ level wind & tensioner Model # 7411122, Dana (Chelsea) PTO Model # 308454-1, shift linkage, & PTO Shaft all just followed me home. I was told they were from a 5 ton wrecker, but...

    BFR's Cranetruck

    See the piece of conduit on the back of the cab in the lashing points for a soft top? It has a notch in one end and is long enough to reach the air tank drain handles. Also, how are the redneck engineered seats holding up?

    The best way to modify a military trailer

    This is just temporary. No lunette on this one I will be using one of Kilby's multi axis hitches on a telescoping tongue. Oddly enough this is the tongue I hacked off that bantam in the first post.
