    problem with oshkosh equipment BEWARE

    Just because you paid big bucks don't expect anymore than if you paid $ 3500 from an SS member . Did you ask them for a list of the things they had done to the truck when they said it was " Gone Through ".

I would guess since the guy just drove it home a month ago he has done little or no maintenance , but if it did make the drive for him that is a good sign . You would be crazy not to take...

    Somebody SHOT my trailer!

    even lead core 223 will go through at least 1/4 plate . I just cut out some torso's out of 1/2 I was dissapointed at how much the 223 craters the 1/2 . Also could easily be 223 holes in your trailer The bullet will expand before it gets through the steel and make the hole larger than the bullet...

    M35a3

    They will fit the rims , but thier has been alot of discussion on the fact that the bead style on the 53 tires is not the same as the 14.5 tires . So A3 rims are really only good for the 14.5 tires , or at least tires with the same style bead as the 14.5 's .

    not only do they smell different the gear lube has got to be thicker tan the brake fluid . Lift up that little meatal door thingy in the drivers floorboard and see if the master cylinder looks like it is low .
