    Please change your tapatalk settings to upload attachments to the site, otherwise it just links. I'm guessing someone had their booger hooks in the wrong place when they went to enter/exit the vehicle. LOL

    Steel Soldiers MV of the YEAR 2015 - VOTE HERE

    I still haven't voted because I'm torn between the halftrack and that M37!

    Upcoming downtime

    Well I have implemented a throttling of the default search in the mean time. Not a popular idea I know. But hopefully it'll prevent bottlenecks.

    Upcoming downtime

    Thanks for the feedback. Trying to work through some of these queries. The internal searches will still be slow. (No way around that until I replace the search engine) But that can cause slowness to other members on the site when someone does a search like "deuce won't run". (One heavily...

    Upcoming downtime

    Been able to do all my tweaking with the database live and working. I do have something coming up that I'll be working on when it comes to searches. I'll be shifting the internal search (when you click on the advance search, or search directly inside a forum) to a different method. The main...

    Spacers to run hummer tires and rims

    No. The M1008/1010/1028/1031 trucks are all 8 lugs. The M1009 is a six lug pattern. The only way to make HMMWV wheels work on a M1009 are: 1. Install 1 ton axles from a truck variant. Then use the previously mentioned spacers. Or use a dually front end. 2. Have the HMMWV wheels recentered...

    Demand for HMMWVs

    Sheriff's office has two here. The next city over has 2 or 3 as well for their PD. And I think the county/EMS has one or two maybe. (I know they had a M35A2 at one time, but it's gone.) None of the ones we have are slantbacks. As to the boat, yeah, that fuel bill will put a stop to it... LOL.

    Nhc 250 cummins pt pump rebuild shop

    If you placed it in neutral and coasted into the stop, no, it shouldn't do that. I wonder if it'd shut down because of it sucking air or something during a stop. Maybe just enough to cause it to loose idle.

    Fording Project

    I like it. There's only one concern that I see. The clutch fording plug. The first bobber I bought had the plug installed. Unknown to me, it had a leaking rear main seal. On the highway drive home, it began slipping due to the "oil bath". If you're going to be in the habit of leaving it...

    CSM DAVIS your inbox is full

    I think I recall seeing your emails bounce back. Might want to check your profile to make sure you have the current/proper email address in it.

    Demand for HMMWVs

    I doubt it'll change much. Most departments are afraid of the current stigma of the "militarized police" that loan vehicles cause.

    Upcoming downtime

    There will be another downtime to come. I need to make some database changes. When that will be, I'm uncertain at the moment.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Drove it to church this morning and back. Not much, but I did drive it. Fired up the 5 ton as well while I wrenched on the Liberty. CUCV apparently said no on starting, guess I need to do glow plugs in it.

    Auto transmission cooler theory

    How about we take the credential comparisons to PM if it must be done.

    So, what's the one thing you'd change?

    Tapatalk has nothing to do with the fact you cannot upload pictures from your phone when browsing fullsize mode. That is a limitation with the mobile device file system and the core application the forum runs from. If I removed tapatalk, I'd be skint alive.

    Upcoming downtime

    Yes, yes there was. At least from me. There were a few things that didn't go well this week with the site. The apache issue earlier this week. But also the backup server failed a migration. So I was running without a "safety net" for a couple of days. I was pulling down backups of the...

    Upcoming downtime

    Looks like we will have a downtime hopefully for only 10-15 minutes tonight. Planning on trying to do this at 7:30p EST. EDIT: Downtime complete!
