    My second MUTT

    That look great, are they as much fun to drive as they look like they would be?

    Height of a M923A1 w/super singles?

    Just put a tape on the 925, it is 120 inches to the top of the roller on the spare tire crane. I don't have bows and tarp. The tires are fully inflated 1400's. Hope that helps.

    Height of a M923A1 w/super singles?

    We are all entitled to those moments, I will measure my 925 tonight and give you a specific height if that will help. I can pm you about 8-9 tonight.

    Awesome, good luck with it. I certainly enjoy my 925. If I was doing it over again I would go with the 923. Since it really takes two guys to operate the winch it isn't much use to me and it sure sticks way out there. I am not going to take it off though, I am just going to keep it like the...

    M888 camouflage pattern?

    Okay 880 guys, weigh in; I am thinking it would be fun to have a MV that is a little easier on the pocket to drive than my 5ton and I am thinking about an 880. I hear a lot on this site about the CUCV's, not so much the 880's why? I am leaning toward the 880 to get away from the diesel. I...

    Stupid 5-Ton Allison Transmission Question

    Personally, I wouldn't worry about shifting into neutral, if you have time to do that, it isn't an emergency stop. I don't know about your truck but there isn't a noticeable change in tactile feel between forward, neutral and reverse so in a panic shift, I would worry about sending the truck...

    Just bought a MTV M1094 LVAD

    DSD277, thank you so much for posting all this. I just finished reading every page and I am impressed! Would it be out of line (or hijacking the thread) to ask, what IS a war pig? From the pictures posted, it appears to be a special operations or airborne piece of equipment. I did see in one pic...

    Gun truck m925a1

    Awesome truck, what was the genesis of the project? Were there, are there gun trucks like these in service? The only pics I have seen of 5ton gun trucks had more protection for the gunners and they were all sand colored so I am just curious.

    New engine time

    I didn't know an injector failure would melt a piston. I drove a Freightliner for years and had three or four injector failures (on an N14 motor.) I just limped to a Cummins facility and had it replaced each time. Glad I didn't know it could do that. I assume you were blowing lots of black smoke...

    Mosler, SAFE -FILING CABINET

    I don't have any experience with safes from the military but I was in banking for 22 years and EVERY safe we used required turning the dial in the opposite direction from the last number until it stops - but they weren't digital. Hope you get it opened.

    BDRM-2 Importation to California and Questions

    "I'm intending on using this as a everyday vehicle." I certainly can't help you, I had to go look it up to see what it is but are you REALLY intending on using this as a daily driver? Don't you think the local law guys would be a little uncomfortable with an armored vehicle cruising around town...
