    Hmmm,something fishy here

    Regarding those items that you see listed on more than 1 occasion. I was advised by a GL rep that either people do not pay, or their EUC was denied, therefore they show up again on auction. As for auditing GL performance I believe the Defense Logistics contracting office in Battle Creek would...

    Well.....I just bought a Deuce....tell me what you think.

    Since you are an OK resident you will probably pay tax. And yes you can drive it away from the lot. Make sure you take equipment with you. Such as tire tools, hand tools, oil, air line, etc, etc. The tires will most likely be low. They have a dock there so you can drive your truck/car up in the...

    Well.....I just bought a Deuce....tell me what you think.

    This came out of Tinker? When I went to pick up my truck several weeks ago I thought at first this was mine because the lot numbers was the same. Then I noticed the event ID was different. Nice truck. I look at it while I was there. I think you did just fine for this nice winch truck. And yes...

    Deuce parts on a 5 ton

    RE: duece parts on a 5 ton The deuce starter will mount on the 5 ton and visa versa. You will need to change the starter drive gear and index the starter nose for it to mount up properly. I have used a 5 ton on a deuce. When I mounted the 5 ton starter on the deuce it was indexed outboard just...

    Loose Driveline Bolts

    I have seen elastic stop nuts on alot of drivelines. If they become lose, change them to a cone lock nut or use a new grade 8 lock washer. Check all threads to make sure non are pulled or bolts stretched. The military has a tendency to over tighten. [In my opinion] After removing many nuts and...

    USA 6X6

    RE: USA 6X6 Night Mare I pulled up his web site yesterday and appears he is up and running again. Advertizing everything except wheels. Same old phone number that was disconnected 2 weeks ago. Lock out hubs are not on the list either. I think it safe to assume Ouverson wants no part of him.
