Ok just a guess but if you are a spooky type in a certain facet of our government isn't it kinda nice to know all the limitation of the "enemy states" if they are using true clones makes life alot easier to know true capabilities. When my toaster starts having internet access and my TV tells me...
Just curious but how is the Pumper hooked up? Looks like you employed a double run of your winch line. Did you winch him out or pull? Awesome to see that green machines are not just a menace to society and the traveling public.
Wow never ceases to amaze me how innovative this country got in the 40's. I have always wanted to build a modern interpretation of the half-track. That autocar will be very useful to that long wished upon project. Nice job on the others too.
Sorry pictures of draped coffins are just as offensive to me as some have found the OP. Using such a picture in such a discussion is as classless and tasteless as wearing the flag.
USAFSS-ColdWarrior You sir actually brought me out of lurking on this subject.<< For me this has been resolved...
A wile back I found a set of Jeep tracks that bolted to the hubs and where driven by the rear axle and a set of cutting brakes where used for steering. Set up is simple but does not look to be all that functional. i wondered if a deuce could be configured this way?
Jeep Wagner-Trac Tank...
LOL I use that tool alot. Excellent for quick weld repair prep work. Even etched my groomsman's gifts with that thing. Glass decanters with my wedding date with three good friends kinda hedges the bet on not missing an anniversary. Lizard bedding at pet stores is crushed walnut also use it...
If its less than 8k lbs. or 4 tons don't worry about a bridge plate.
If you tow something and the whole is over 4 tons truck+trailer the front plate should read the weight + "C"
If you are not near a scale just take the vehicle gross weight and multiply by .85 this will give you 85% of the...
My info is already superseded by M813rc.
FM5-34 (24 September 1976) states:
5-2. MARKING OF VEHICLES
a. Weight Classification. All vehicles with a gross weight over 3 tons and all trailers with rated payload over 1 1/2 tons are assigned classification numbers. These numbers indicate a...
exactly... I'm torn as to the need for that sort of survelance but I do think in some capacity it is needed. Still would love to see the back story on that BMFG. Why oh why was it just sitting there. I'm sure local LEO and us are not the only trafic on such a load.
Hmmmmm.......so much paranoia. Usually associate lovers of another form of green with that condition. I'm sure some poor analyst somewhere in the NSA gets a report on us daily. Its probably thrown out with the rest of the NOT A BIG DEAL hits they see. Except for Papabear and Wreckerman's...
After bubba got done with my Jeep he left me with one choice and that was go along with the trail rig line. One thing I needed I found out was a bit more light. Not one to just slap on a bunch of after market junk, for one i'm too cheap and two it would look like a CJ5, I decided to look...
Ok, been looking around and don't see any offerings for modified M38a1s. If mine was in better shape I think I would be restoring instead of what I am currently doing.
I just want to see how many out there are building these old machines up a bit. Please post any of your projects or Ideas.
Well how about a hot rod'n section in every class breakdown. I have M38a1 and not all my mods are restoration!!!! I don't want to have to climb over twenty "new bob methods" to find how to fit better seats. I'm sure I don't want to see fifty different ways to lift a CUCV. Let alone I'm sure...
