    Portsmouth, VA GL lot retrieve and hold for pickup

    Blake reached out and told me about the service that he uses, and offered to store them at his place for a while.... Just exploring the options, but most likely will follow his (and your) advice... :) Thanks!

    Graves Mountain Rally, Syria VA August 31-September 4, 2017

    Ran into these videos today and was reminded that Karl hopes to bring the halftrack back again this year... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-g0jT8S9rU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvwxmcOCTj4

    Portsmouth, VA GL lot retrieve and hold for pickup

    Exploring my options and trying to save myself at least one trip to Portsmouth, VA... Any one able to go over and pick up a lot of 750x16 tires (14 of them) for me next week and either hold on to them for a short while or convey them over to Blake Sheppard's place? The tires have to be removed...

    M37 Fuel Pickup Alternatives

    The short answer is that you can replace it with a tube with (or without) a filter on it... That complex bit is really just a tub with a filter around it... My M37 with the Cummins 4BT has a modified pickup in the tank that is just a rigid tube (piece of brake line) with a generic sick filter...

    Graves Mountain Rally, Syria VA August 31-September 4, 2017

    Spent the weekend with the good folks from Rockridge Offroad (local jeep club) running all the trails and performing maintenance on them. Did a whole lot of cutting (amazing how fast stuff grows...) and confirmed that we can run the five ton trucks behind the Lodge on a new trail as well as...

    Graves Mountain Rally, Syria VA August 31-September 4, 2017

    Yep. Nice thing is that I have a bunch of heaters (three different styles), more than one use this size duct...and none of them came with ducts...

    Conny's posts are a great reminder that we have lots and lots of space so bring whatever you want to sell/trade/donate... There is no extra fee for vending or for taking up an acre or two of space for all your vehicles and gear... :)

    Chuck dropped by my office yesterday and told me that he and his wife have come up with the idea for the shirt's artwork... He hopes to have it drawn up this weekend... ;) I really liked the idea, but will wait to tell all of you until it is ready, just in case he changes his mind...

    Considering that the tent we use as a HQ during the event has the flaps for using these ducts, and I have heaters with no ducts (no A/C unit though...), bring them and I will take them off your hands. May not use them during the event, but I know that I can put them to good use at other times...

    Asheboro NC MV Meet And Greet. Saturday June 24th

    I'm planning on swinging by... Got a car club event first thing in the morning, but I may skip that in order to make an earlier arrival. Kinda depends on if/when I can borrow that Schutt SLC-T for moving containers around since Pat made a comment about shifting a container around at his...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    A couple of weeks ago, I helped a buddy move some containers from his old home to his new property using his Schutt trailer... Have to say that it was a really fun weekend since the new "toy" worked like a charm and behaved wonderfully behind my M931, the conversations were good, and because...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Installed mud flaps on the M817, replaced a broken turn signal housing, topped up the fluids... :)

    Bought a M37

    Good to hear that it has made it home and is in recovery. I look forward to seeing it in action this fall when you come to the rally... ;)

    M817, problems with PTO, need advice.

    As mentioned above, as long as the valves are in good shape, you can go down the road with the PTO spinning the pump and it will be ok...but you are putting a bit of faith in the system and adding a lot of wear to things. The linkage setup that controls the dump up/down/hold function is combined...

    We will! I'm not sure what happened last year. I know that we talked about it. I'll put it on the list... :)

    I'm actually loading stuff into the M146 this Friday and hauling it up to Graves... :)

    Bought a M37

    I wasn't going to go there...but I was thinking it... :) That is one benefit of my having the rally at the family farm...we do have a bunch of recovery vehicles and that fully equipped heavy equipment shop (and a bunch of M37 owners on hand to assist...).

    Bought a M37

    The nice thing is that if you bring it to the Graves Mountain trailrides it will fit right in with the rest of the M37s... :)
