I also ordered 20' of super rope on e-bay for about the same price. seller name "deuceseller" prompt shipping. I really do not need any was just a impulse buy that was cheap. Let me know if you need what I have. -Dale

More questions I was hoping to have ordered the 2" wheel spacers already, but me being me I like to shop around for best price. Matt aka cucvnut sent me this link: Chevrolet/GMC 2" Wheel Spacers Anyway checked on e-bay also(this is where it gets as clear as mud): 2" thickness: check 8 x...

You can find them on gov liquidation all the time. even craigslist and ebay. I just paid for 4 myself and will pick them up once I get back home. -Dale

Yeah planning on it! You know the Government price would not be $40, the discount rate would be more like $400 at least probably closer to $4,000.

Yeah we are in the the same AO. we can meet up at Green Beans for a coffee and call it a Steel Soldiers mini-rally. -Dale

PAO= Public Affairs Office The military sometime does unusual things that break from the norm if they can put a positive public affairs spin on it. Probably not going to happen in this case, just something I mentioned. -Dale

Getting it back would be fairly easy. It all has data plates still so it would be as simple as talking to the right people and adding it to the manifest. Now being ethical or legal is another matter, he definitely would not have a SF-97. Say his unit wanted to do a FOI (found on...

Ha wow ok stay away from 88M (driver/IED hunter) All kidding aside before I started collecting MV's I have seen so much stuff being thrown out even old field desk, now I wish I had one. I'm going to start keeping a better eye on stuff being thrown out before I retire in a few years. -Dale

Yeah he did outstanding! oh sent you a PM (x2) -Dale

Updates OK Fella's I walked by again today and this time a spoke to a young SPC(E-4) turns out he is the guy who pulled them and brought em back to life! Also I may have recruited a new member! I gave him the website link and he is a mechanic based out of FT Hood. He shed a lot...

:funny:

No clue, I figured I could always use it on my CUCV if it did not. I bought the cheapest working unit I could find. The 3/4" ones go for $200ish

Peter, just search "slave cables" on e-bay and you will see what I am talking about. Its a 24V impact tool that plugs into you slave port. -Dale

That is a mystery. HMMWV tires/wheels will fit on a M1008, 1028, 1031. Not sure about the spacer. I'm guessing he either ordered them and had them sent over by mail or he had something fabricated here. While the later is not likely it may be possible since this is a larger base we are...

I'm guessing the fellow who recovered them added all the HMMWV tires. Those can be found anywhere out here, while the standard CUCV tires well not so much. Looks like a no lift and made fender trim on the quarter panels -Dale

1/2" Robotool bought from e-bay $80 and two slave ends $35 each. What size welding cable? And would Granger or harbor freight have this? My "Motor-pool starter kit" is almost complete now! rofl ALSO how goes the recovery?????? -Dale

Just bought two slave ends ($35 ea) to fab my own set up. Also bought a 1/2 robotool for $80 I need to stop now or I won't have money left for the tag. lol -Dale

I am still deployed to Afghanistan (almost done though). Anyway last night something caught my eye so I went back today and talked to a worker in the area and asked if I could take a few pics. The story is one of the guys that is no longer here went and pulled these(2) from the "graveyard"...

Thanks Amram, I have been wanting one for years now and the opportunity and funds finally lined up. Before it was always lots of trucks but no funds to buy, for the past 6 months I have had some funds but was beginning to think I would not find the truck on my limited budget. It finally...

for the bits remaining might try acetone followed by a pressure washer Good luck, Dale
