The FBW has a Rocklinger type pintel receiver which is very long as it sits over the spare tire. I'd love provide photos, but my phone cam is acting up. I've decided to cut the 'eye' off the yoke and replace it with an eye that will fit. Careful Troll.... 8)

Greetings fellow Mog owners..... I'm trying to hook my 1944 Army Corps of Engineers trailer to my 1938 FBW (upcoming event). The trailer has a standard (large) pintel eye, and the FBW has a small Mog-type pintel receiver. Anyone adapted their US military trailer to their Mog? If so, what did...

More octane won't hurt anything. Use 100LL. It costs $3.50 up per gallon. Smaller airports, lower fuel prices, generally.

I used Sennheiser noise canceling headsets and a portable aircraft intercom w/MP3 input in the M818. Good stuff. :-)

Ok, ok, I made the modification yesterday. Works great. :-) My only question is why would someone refer to this solving their potential sticky glow plug relay issue. I've heard the horror stories about these relays sticking and melting the glow plugs into the engine. Is this addressed...

Beautiful. Thanks for sharing!

KS3O here. Rockwell KWM-380 station in the hangar. Not used much, however....:-(

Wilkommen im Forum fuer verrueckte Militaerfahrzeugbegeisterte! :beer: Prost! (Welcome to the forum for "crazy" military vehicle enthusiasts! :beer: Cheers!)

Excellent directions. Repair went without a hitch and is functioning as advertised. A little Molykote 55M grease helped with the sealing cup friction. Mucho thankso TX!
