    Cole Land Transportation Museum

    And a really cool WWII memorial incorporating a Jeep statue. I'm not sure how they constructed it, but the level of detail is amazing.

Its...

    urgent usarmy paint questions

    Whereas CARC is especially bad for you in its liquid and airborne form, there is no link between CARC and Cancer, or at least none documented that I've been able to find. The solvents used to thin the Carc are bad too, so take all necessary safety and respiratory precautions seriously.

    Exhaust out the back or side?

    Early LD-465s went out the rear too, my 66' M109 still has the brackets. Here's some supporting documentation:

    FYI, I've got a tire in the rear I accidentally inflated to 110psi, that thread here. I've put almost 700 miles on it this summer, no heavy loads tho besides the extra ton of the 109 box and some ods and ends. The tire has some cracks but none on the sidewall. That tire did get a tube change...

    Safe Driving Speed and Tire Size on M939 Series Trucks

    M939s do not have a good safety record. It would be in everyone's best interest not to push the envelope.
