    what unit does this belong to

    I slave started it when I was picking up a couple other trucks. If they don't start, I don't bid on them.

    That VIN is incorrect. There are only 16 digits, there should be 17. It is a M1008, and it runs and drives quite well:wink:

    Banks Turbo - I bit the bullet

    I can beat that price on new kits. PM me anyone who's interested. I'll be out of town for a few days but will get back to you when I get back.

    Found! WWII USMC Trailer?

    Looks like a Ben Hur trailer to me, definitely WWII. Nice shape. I've seen them go anywhere from $500-$1500.

    centrifuge.....

    The Luberfiner is just a 2 micron bypass filter not a centrifuge. They do work quite well though.

    5 ton towing a 55 ton tank

    I know I have a better pic somewhere, but this was towing the tank with one of my deuces. Did fine in the dirt, didn't have any traction issues until we got to the gravel road.

    GL just lost another customer.

    :-DYa know Floyd, that's the best reply I've seen. Time to start f'n with GL the hard way:twisted: Letter writing to govt' officials is a damn good idea, and no time better to start than right now. BTW I still miss my trailer:cry: LOL

    5 ton towing a 55 ton tank

    I pullled a M10 with a M35A2 before. Was easy, fortunately the tank had brakes just didn't run. Pulled it about a mile off road.

    GL just lost another customer.

    Ya know, I've tolerated their crap because I've been in the surplus business for at least 20 years now. But I've had enough, this is ridiculous. Guess it's time for me to change professions. Lately I've been lied to by several employees of theirs and have e-mail proof of that! Heidi on chat said...

    GL just lost another customer.

    What a crock this outfit is. I just went to log in to my account and it is suspended. They claim I have a duplicate account. This is the same account I've had for years:evil: Oh well, I was getting tired of dealing with GL and their bull**** anyhow.

    Battle Creek is pretty quick....it's the 'tards at GL getting the info to Battle Creek that seems to be the problem:roll:

    gears or trans swap

    I agree.

    gears or trans swap

    Not a chance, done a ton of them. You do need to shorten the rear driveshaft, and the Gear Vendor doesn't work in 4x4. There is one custom built 4x4 Gear Vendor unit in existence, one of their former employees did it trying to convince them that there was a market for a 4x4 unit.

    WMO(used motor oil) in 6.2 M1009

    Yes, been running it in the CUCVs quite a bit. No problems at all. Little bit of white smoke until it warms up fully in the colder months.

    WMO(used motor oil) in 6.2 M1009

    I've been running straight WMO in all of my rigs for over a year now. One pass through the centrigfuge, into my holding tank, then into the fuel tank. Once in a while I brew up some biodiesel, but have more WMO than anything. Passes NV diesel emissions test no problem.
