    Bring the chat list back to the main page!!

    Ok, I've got it working now to show count number and users. I'm going to spruce up that section with some more HTML formating. But it's working.

    Well, it's back to working better than it was. Still working on getting it to display a list of who actually is in, instead of just a number.

    Are you trying to post in the TM section on the top of the pages or are you trying to post in the auxiliary section for actual posting?

    HMMWV's for sale, no longer maybe, it happened

    This discussion is about the HMMWV variants, but the MK48's and MK14-15-16-17-18 trailers have already made it out.

    New aridzona transplant

    Sir, you only received a warning, it was not anything that accrued points or will negatively impact you. The system is used just more of a tracking tool for the staff as a dozen people can't keep track of 50K people. The state location is the only real requirement. Many others joke about...

    Shhhh, don't hype them up. Let everyone think of them as the lowly lowly base model.

    Happy birthday to me (trans cooler failed)

    Yeah, I'm up to about $325 in fluids total on the trans flush. Well $330 counting the Alcohol. From what I've seen, it's more like a 750 to 1K for a transmission. Well, there's one in the classifieds now for $350 now that I see it. But I know I'd have another $200-300 to get it down to me...

    Happy birthday to me (trans cooler failed)

    Finally starting to see some improvement! I think another 10 gallons of hyd fluid and I'm ready to take it for a test drive. I've used a quart of denatured alcohol in with my first 5 gallons of hyd fluid. I think this made a major impact as the fluid started to separate quick then! So the...

    HMMWV's for sale, no longer maybe, it happened

    Update: I was given word that a USF&PO CWO4 has stated that they will be sold. I'm awaiting more details. Reopening thread, please keep on topic of only discussing the possible sell of these. This is not a topic about insurance, titles, registration, exc. It will however be closed if...

    Happy birthday to me (trans cooler failed)

    Well I haven't driven it yet. Thankfully (I guess) it started puking oil out the coolant res. while I started it up. But by then I was already getting a milkshake from draining it. I've not driven it yet at all. Just been exchanging fluids over and over and over. It's still milky, but it's...

    Happy birthday to me (trans cooler failed)

    Doing a little more research, IPA's boiling point is 180F. Which is better than the 212F of water. But Denatured alcohol is 173F. That's pretty close to operating temps of the truck. I think I'm just going to allow the truck to keep on dripping dry today. Then I'll put the plug in again...

    Happy birthday to me (trans cooler failed)

    Pretty sure they'll say just keep swapping fluids or run it through a fluid exchanger a few times. I'd just feel better if it wasn't cloudy coming out. I think this brute force method isn't working as fast as I'd like. I've pulled the MSDS on Seafoam Trans Tune. (...

    Happy birthday to me (trans cooler failed)

    I shifted plans. After 25 gallons of oil with no major improvement. I've started using diesel fuel. I've gone through 20 gallons of diesel fuel. It's still cloudy, but not a thick goop anymore. I'm going to run another 8 gallons of diesel through it. Then I've got 15 gallons of hyd fluid...

    503 error

    He sent me his IP address, it was blocked, I've removed that one. As mentioned on yours, I didn't see the one you gave me. But I think you had a cellular hot spot? I'd like to see what happens if you take your wife's smart phone and disable the cell connection and turn on wifi and use the...
