Anybody available to pick up 8 HMMWV tires in Oklahoma City next month and store them for 1 month? My son is stationed in Enid, OK, but due to training in Pueblo, CO, he will not be available to get the tires until November.
Thank you,
When I bought my m37 two years ago, AMGeneral suggested I keep extra tune up parts on hand:points, condenser, rotor and cap. He has a lot of experience with m37's and said they can quit without warning. Sure enough, on Saturday my M37 fired over once and then quit. Simply would not fire...
My middle son is going into the Marines in 4 weeks and is selling his M101. It is a complete tan M101A1: cover, metal bows, fiberglass sides. The cover has a small tear in front and a small rip at a seam in back. Tires are fair. He's asking $800 for everything. He'd rather not have to deal...
Because the m37 coil is in the distributor, it gets hot if not properly ventilated. Air lines should be in place to form a draft of cool air. Two thin lines go from the air breather throat to the base of the distributor, making a constant cycle of air.
Don't know if you are aware that you need a Pintel hitch for your receiver. Tire pressure could be low. When you tow it home, take the tarp off to reduce drag. tools, tools, lots of tools.
Finally put the new 900X20 NDT's on the Deuce. Got them over a year ago when I bought 3 M832 dolly trailers at Ft. Gordon. I was waiting for the old tires to actually NEED replacing, but decided not to wait any longer. Old tires still have some life in them, but i like the look and feel of...
I bought from a private seller, paid a lot more ($5000), but I have a great M35A2 that has needed no maitenance other than oil, belts, ets. Usual stuff.
When I went to look at it, I was just thinking I'd get a feel for dealing with sellers, but when I saw this guy's shop (cleaner and better...
We passed them heading west about 12:30 about 40 miles east of Nashville. It was pouring and we passed one Humvee with the driver using a rag to "defrost" his windshield. Cool to see that many vehicles.
Had a couple of lots to pickup at GL at Ft. Benning. Long story short, we were running very late due to a one and a half hour delay because of a serious semi accident on I-85, AND I got lost on base. Called GL at Ft. Benning and Link said they usually stop load outs at 2 but try to get there...
CornRichard - thanx for the suggestion; this is the one time i want wood to sag.
MajorHitt - thanx for the idea. I fabricated an arm today (sorry no pic) after bolting the L-bracket to the side as you suggested. Just need a mirror for the passenger side.
Purists, please be advised that the modifications you are about to view are NOT standard. Please do not excommunicate me from the true faith; I'm just CHEAP.
Been wanting troop seats for the M37, but I am not paying $340 for the hardware. I used Deuce troop seat hardware and it was a perfect...
