    Do you have to pick up the whole lot? ie. leave the crates/pallets?

    I met Lockbourne, Groveport always makes me take everything.

    Do you have to pick up the whole lot? ie. leave the crates/pallets?

    Last time I was at Groveport, they said I had to take everything. Too many people leaving trash ruined it. They use to let you leave the pallets, as long as you took all the cardboard, strapping, shrink-wrap, etc.

    HMMWV pintle mounts

    I believe that is the SA4 or SA10 swing arm. The mount isn't a standard pintle. The manufacturer is Military Systems Group. I have the adapter to mount the swing arm to a standard pintle receiver. I don't know where you'll find the part that mounts on the pillar. You'll also need the correct...

    GL woes on an auction from Groveport

    Many are probably like me, and pick up themselves. When you pick up, you inspect, then sign that you received your complete order. I assume your shipper signed the same form. After that, you are stuck with what you got. I have never used a shipper, so the process may be different.

    Dexron VI fuel efficiency?

    You can not buy new official Dex III, because GM no longer sells the license, the patent is expired, hence Dex VI. Dex/merc will be the closest to original.

    Findlay 2015 Armed Forces Day Event May 15

    Cory works as well. Had a great time hanging out. If the wife lets me steal the baby wagon to tow the trailer, I'd definitely do it again. Got back to Cincinnati with no issues other than my cargo getting wet. I even think the trailer lights worked on the way home.

    Unknown meaning of this metal tag

    It looks like there may be a 2D barcode in the upper right corner. If you have a smartphone, download a barcode app and see if you can glean anything else from the 2D code.

    IronPlanet is a joke!

    There are plenty of people hear with vast collections, and extensive knowledge. Dial it back a couple notches, and they might be kind enough to help.

    ATF and filter question

    I know nothing of the CUCV, but I am a big fan of the remote transmission filter kits, that use a spin on oil filter. The B&M 80277 is what I have used. A slightly easier option is a magnefine transmission filter, but subsequent filter changes aren't as easy. The in pan transmission filter is...

    Help identify this trailer

    Looks pretty commercial to me with the spoke wagon wheels. I wonder what's in the bed by the wheel. It looks like a wheel well, but the wheels are outboard.

    MRAP Caiman

    The Caimans most LEOs are receiving are Caiman hulls that have been pulled and upfitted to the Caiman Plus chassis. I think they weren't real attentive during the upfit. While the chassis is at zero miles, everything in the hull may have been around the world.

    Deuce load?

    Weren't the M35A3s and later A2s only speced at 5000# for both on and off road? For the A3, I assume it's the different bearings and the singled out wheels.

    M998 Rear Roll Bar?

    Is that predator unit a roll bar? They only describe it as a tire carrier.

    ground plain or no ground plain cb antenna for m1009

    True, your ground plane doesn't have to be horizontal, or in all directions. HOWEVER, your antenna will not longer be omnidirectional, which is the goal of most CB antennas. A antenna location on a vehicle is almost always a compromise. I use to run a 1/4 wave mag mount in the middle of my roof...

    ground plain or no ground plain cb antenna for m1009

    I'm pretty sure the dual antennas truckers put on their mirror brackets are no ground plane. The mirror bracket doesn't offer a useful ground plane. A ground plane should to be a horizontal surface, the length of the antenna in all directions, ie the middle of a steel roof.
