re: Sandcobra's entire comment I have repeatedly tried to explain to D-town, both in terms of the owner and the management, that the HMV hobby has a demographic aspect to it that can't be ignored. A literal ton of us are refugees from the antique car hobby. I can't afford $20K paintjobs...

I have a date but there are some last minute discussions about prices and park access and I don't want everyone reserving spots if D-town and I can't come to an agreement. I'm sorry folks. I'm working on this as much as I can.

I have a potential date but there are some other issues I'm dealing with that will take a few more days. Hopefully by the early part of next week, I'll have an announcement

LOL @ financially feasible. This is like guns and ammo - the Garand will eventually be a pittance of what you spent on ammo. I think I paid $3300 for my '87 USAF M35A2C from Govt. Liquidation in 2011. I'm now somewhere between $15K and $20K in total investment and that doesn't count fuel or...

I'm working on it but right now I'm at someone else's mercy.

This debate is absurd. Alright, the debate is that in a rollover incident, you're better off being flung out of the vehicle than being crushed. Ok. What about the fact that in all other traffic accidents, you're better off? And none of us know what percentage of MV accidents end in a...

So I have a Haldex N50011H, which I believe is original equipment for MRAP and perhaps M939 series trucks. I'll be installing this on my '87 M35A2C. After reading up on various threads (https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/air-dryer-for-an-m35a2.65682/), I have questions: A. I looked...

Oooooof.

A note to everyone that I just learned the hard way: In order to use this style of torque adapter, you have to remove the entire oil cooler in order to access the rear nut on the front head. This is the rear nut on the rear head. No problem. Rear nut, front head.

Internet archive has some of Joe's old website you can surf https://web.archive.org/web/20001019080142/http://www.joeyoung.com/main.html Also, sad that the deuce is no longer the king (hottest entity) of surplus. All you whipper snappers and your HMMWVs andFMTVs.

My first Deuce would have come from him had I been in the position (storage, $$$) to buy one. I surfed his site almost daily when the internet was new because there was so little deuce stuff out there.

We did this with a Ram 4500. Not a 3500. Felt very safe, went 50 miles in a rural area with low traffic density. It's a buddy's set up and I never looked at the weight rating of the trailer. I was just along for the ride.

I have a buddy with a first generation M1078 (I can't bring myself to call it an A0). The alternator caught on fire. I'm fixing it. Truck came to me with a 100A 24-12V alternator 76761-N1506-1. And this is what I bought, not realizing the small differences. I bought a...

Don't have it yet, still working on some stuff. Will try and have it set by beginning of 2020.

I also received an email

Neil was one of the nicest people I've ever met.

Yes. Although all my civvy trailers have LEDs. I think this is just what you get with cheap Chinese stuff. I doubt it's a load issue.

My original EG22 that I installed in 2015 died at the rally last week. So I got about 4 years and 8 months. Not sure on mileage, but I don't drive the truck much. Metal box had no moisture in it or evidence of having had moisture in it.
