    Another SF97 question for GL

    I used to get SF97's that had UNK in almost every blank... Usually in the mail a week or so after I picked up a truck (in NC or VA). I never was able to title anything in either state until I had the form corrected (another month or so and a bunch of work) as neither state wanted to see UNK...

    Scanned color copy of DL required?

    Ken, who handled the review of my most recent EUC, mentioned that the folks at Battle Creek are requiring an almost "perfect" copy of the DL in order to verify who you are. I'd been using the same scan for some time but went and made a new scan for submittal just to be sure... Emailing the...

    Convoy Central

    Ahh, the trip report... I got a call last night around 2200 from Ferro saying that he had made it back to Columbia ok. He reported that AMGeneral had a nylon fuel line on his duece spring a leak shortly after they parted from DaveO and I (sad, because the M35 of mine that Dave was driving had...

    PRC-77 home made battery

    Great to hear how folks are powering these things these days. I went the "easy" route and purchased one of Bruce Clarke's (PRC68"s) setups for each of my PRC77's and I really like them a lot... Very well put together, use D cells, and have a plug on them so that you can use the block to bench...

    New 37

    It towed really well behind my XM813... Never even knew that it was behind me to be honest... It looked like you had some decent metal to work with. Hopefully, the 100amp charging system will be in working order as well, you don't see many of those still installed these days... Good to see...

    SIGN UP NOW for the East Coast Convoy!

    I have the Convoy Shirts in hand and have to say that the yellow print on the green shirts looks really good. The text for the labels describing the action of the three lever light switch (the rear grafic, in keeping with the "helpful" shirt theme that has been used in the past) is just the...

    installing cargo tie-downs inside deuce bed

    I'd trust my military tie downs for my Mule as well (it weighs less than a thousand pounds...), but the 30kw generators run 3k lbs each and I didn't want them to move at all...

    installing cargo tie-downs inside deuce bed

    I'll take some photos and will post them of the setup in my M35A2c... It has the recessed military tie down points on the bed sides (installed by Uncle Sugar) but, like Kenny, I don't trust them for heavy stuff like the MEP-005a's that I have been hauling recently, so I've also gotten some...

    Ft Bragg CUCV pick up help

    5 Ton dump truck

    The truck runs well, brakes need work as the fluid slowly seeps out so the guy I purchased it from said that he just topped it up once a month... Tires are good (in fact, one of the first things I am planning to pull if the truck doesn't sell as a whole are the tires/wheels). Lights need to...

    5 Ton dump truck

    Do you have all the parts for your conversion already or are you still in the planning stages?? I've got a cargo truck that was converted to a tipper parked on the farm just north of Charlottesville that I will be parting out soon (unless somebody wants to give me the $1600 that I paid for...
