    Starter fluid?

    Towbar it home and be done with it. It's much easier to work on it once it's at your house. Unless you like more headaches.

    Cucv on goverment liquidation

    Personally, I think buying an CUCV through GL is much more of a risk than buying a deuce. Which is kinda sad because they are easier to own, less cost, maintenance, etc. My M1009 I bought through GL although was inexpensive, wasn't as easy to bring home as my deuces were. I lucked out because...

    Wish I could help :| My goal though is to own a wrecker by the end of the year :cool: You may have to go the 'ditch, ramps, and come-a-long' route to get the trailers in the bed.

    Some things I've learned from my first time winching

    I dragged a stump to add tension. Making sure the cable stays where you put it at the start, and after you take tension off of it are the hard parts. I'll probably be using it again soon, and once I get a 'soldier B' over to the house I can get it on the drum properly. :-D

    M1009 license plate mount

    I've got an idea that I'm going to try with mine. I'm going to make a sleeve that goes behind one of the shackles on the square tubing. The shackle will hold it into place, and it'd be removable by taking off the shackle. Then I'm going to weld a frame to hold the license plate.

    Drove a deuce to work today.

    It was a pretty day out, and my immediate supervisor had been bugging me to bring a truck to work, so I drove one of the better looking trucks to work this morning. Traffic wasn't too bad, got to work while all the managers were in a meeting, I didn't know how the director would take it...

    Some things I've learned from my first time winching

    1. Even if you read and memorize the TM, you still have a high chance that you'll get hurt. 2. Steel cable is heavy and very greasy. The grease is there to hide the metal slivers. 3. If pulling a tree over, make sure to measure the height of the tree and that the cable is LONGER than that...
