Thanks! - After reading the above and looking in my new downloaded manual (Thanks Bighurt!) It looks like your probably right. Assuming it is in fact the XM1007 it has a "Resilient" king pin. All the other models listed in the manual are "Standard Ordinance". So... what is the difference? I...

I assume that it retracts for driving and then the roof pops up for use. If so, you could mount it on a larger and taller vehicle, maybe get a 18 wheeler type trailer, cut out part of the back, Or convert a M820, mount this thing and take it to the races. Inside: Bed, Beer, Broads. Outside, a...

Greetings.. Just won this: "2 Wheel 6 Ton Semi Trailer Van, no data plate Mfr/Sn unknown, **BUYER LOAD**" (Yes, that was the full description....) Approximate Dim. or Lot Cube: 368" x 94" x 135" (L x W x H) Item Location: 77 Rock Avenue Fort Meade, MD 20755 I have 3 questions, (Please...

Has anybody here ever used the Lizardskin stuff? I would really appreciate some (and was hoping for) feed back on this product...

That sound non-typical and unfortunate. Do you remember what brand the bag was? What condition was the bag in? You sure it was not leaking? I ask because I have seen them work in person and there are dozens and dozens of youtube videos of people successfully using them. Here are just a few...

What your looking for is called a "Fuel Injector" (As noted in the very last sentence above... :) ) I'm guessing that you could also use a glow plug hole instead?? Of course if you pull a fuel injector then your going to only get fresh air. If you pull the glow plug your going to get the...

This is probably far to late to be of any use here but, for the next person thinking about making a custom tank to go under the bed between the rails in that dead space (Same space is available on the M109 too) According to the formula on this page: Tank Capacity Calculators a space of 2ft x...

I'm not a big fan of "Fix-A-Flat" I have tried it several times and (For me anyway) it only sort of works at best (If at all) and always makes a huge mess of the tire/wheel. Many tire repair places refuse to repair a tire once that stuff has been used. Many refuse to mount a new tire on the...

Any chance of getting some history of where it was used, by what units and what jobs it worked on? When it was retired, how it spent it's retires life and so forth?

Dear Mr. Lawyer, After being asked SEVERAL times if the truck had come with a warranty or not the OP has yet to respond to this issue so it is assumed that the answer is no, there was no warranty. Additionally, I believe the OP stated that the oil leak started AFTER the vehicle was initially...

I have seen several projects on "Powerblock-TV" where they used this stuff. Lizardskin Ceramic Insulation and Sound Control Spray-on Formula They have both a sound and thermal formula and if you want you can use both. The thermal is good up to 500f. It is paintable It does not look like...

Thanks for the additional info! It has been awhile since I saw the documentary and was working from old rusty memory banks. Reading what you said about the generator/fuel tank/fuel spill seems to jog something in the memory and I'm pretty sure your correct about that. I am however pretty sure...

If I recall correctly the fire was caused by a portable generator they were using as a APU. They had made some makeshift brackets to hold the generator/APU in the tail area of the aircraft. While taxing on the very rough tundra to their ice runway the generator/APU bracket broke and the...

As noted, a 2 person job. 3 is even better. I always like to get and keep the cable a tightly wound on the drum as possible. As noted, using the properly sized and rated cable is essential to safety as is using the correct sheer pin and NOT a common bolt, especially a grade 8 bolt. Always...

Great info.... however... This is for the stock gear sets in stock ratio. What we need is part numbers for gear sets with different ratios. Something like 4.88. There is a SS member who has been working on this issue for some time and Just today I learned that he may actually have found some...

Subscribed. Once you figure out the equalevlent civilian sizes for the components please post them. I wold like to build one myself. If you build one don't just use generic chain and connectors that is not rated for winching, be sure you ask the people at the sling manufacturing plant what...

Good luck on the 4.88 gears. I have actively been looking for a set for about 2-3 months now. If you find a valid set of part numbers and a place that actually has the gear sets in stock, PLEASE IM or PM me immediately. (The front tandem takes a different part number than the other two and if...

Looks like your pal Horatio has seriously stepped in some organic large animal rectal deposits. To bad CSI Boa Vista was not there.... she is one investigator I would like to investigate....lol... CSI: Miami Cast: Eva La Rue on CBS (Pic below) Then there is that blonde twit Calleigh Duquesne...

Pretty close but not exactly.... Actually I guess I accidentally lied. I do have 3 pics of the block, I just did not realize it until just a minute ago.... There is nothing in the picture to scale by though. Just guessing (Till I can go measure it) end to end it is probably 24-30" long. This...

Hum... ok.... well then let me "change" the parameter.... 7/8 cable like on the M916 and M920. (I know those are 7/8....) The wrecker has 2 rear winches, the one on the boom and the one on the deck. The deck one is 45k. Are you SURE that one has 3/4 cable? 3/4 cable is not really rated for a...
