    Bought used M1102 trailer, (was) missing serial or VIN.

    Without having that plate, you'll never know what the serial of the trailer is. Is there a process to register a home built trailer in your state? I have done this in Georgia where the DMV provided a VIN plate that I riveted onto the trailer. Then a LEO comes out to inspect that the plate has...

    How many miles are on it?

    There's two gauges that can never be trusted on a MV. The mileage indicator and the fuel level indicator. ;)

    STE/ICE Delete

    It sucks because of a few reasons. 1. There's over 75 gigs of data to this forum alone. 2. It's a SQL database. Trying to search on three letters by default doesn't work. It's a limitation. 3. Most people just punch something into a search and think a result will come out they're after. Let's...

    Runaway Deuce engine

    Check the cut off cable on the side of the injection pump. It's just two screws holding it on. Make sure that slides freely. It can prevent it from starting, as well as make it run away at times too. If in doubt, pull the intake tube off the turbo, then have a big phone book, MSC catalog, or...

    Also due to how databases work in general, it might be hard to find three letter acronyms. IE: STE or ICE. In that case, I recommend using the google search bar on the homepage. But add in HMMWV which will also loop in the HMMWV forum.

    Massey Ferguson 40 tractor

    So I had a few more pics from this. Honing that bushing for the pto gear was a pain. Also the lift arm bolts were rusted from never being used so I used a die on them. Over the weekend I finally got the bush hog hooked up to it that I got from @twright a while back. Ended up rebuilding that pto...

    good source for brackets/hardware for airlift bumper?

    I also second going to tractor supply for the hardware. Most affordable way to buy grade 8 hardware. They price by the pound, not piece.

    Trailworthy fab closed?

    I tend to despline hubs for people here already. I used to have a source (CSI out in Tallapoosa) but they closed up a couple years ago. Honestly if there's a need/desire to do this, I'll build a machine to do it. Maybe someone knows where a lot of the runflats are?

    Trailworthy fab closed?

    That wouldn't be hard to construct a machine to do.

    And no one got the hint. Maybe this time they will.

    Price of a full frag 6 armor kit

    It's not about making it thicker. It's about deflecting as much energy as possible.

    Price of a full frag 6 armor kit

    There's more to it than just slapping "AR500" on something and calling it armor. AR500 isn't "armor Also the "flat" aspect of things.

    Price of a full frag 6 armor kit

    That little bit right there exemplifies my statement. The problematic words are underlined too.

    Price of a full frag 6 armor kit

    If armor were only as simple as that....

    Price of a full frag 6 armor kit

    What's the thoughts of it? It is what it is. And you'll need a form 6 approved by the ATF as well as import paperwork for importing armor into the US.
