    M149A1 Water Buffalo with A2 Tank.

    The good deals are few and far between. I bid and lost on one a few weeks ago and it went for serious cash. Glad you found one.

    1984 cucv Engine oil type 6.2l diesel

    Recommend also using Wix filters. Just like Oils, there is a difference in quality among the brands. I use Mobil 1 Motor Oil 10-40w and Wix filters on everything I own. Everyone has their own personal preference.

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    That is not the correct brake lever. It will not work on the M101 series trailers.

    M101A2 trailered home from auction. This is why.

    Welcome to Steel Soldiers! Yes I completely agree that the M101A2 is the best utility trailer ever fielded. Yes You can remove the hub assembly and work on it that way. I left mine on. Made it easier for me knowing it wasn’t going anywhere while banging on it Heat, Liquid Wrench and lots of...

    1-wheel vs 2-wheel landing gear

    1 wheel or 2, use lots of lube and anti-seize to make your life easier. No such thing as too much. On my M149A1-2 water trailer, the large single wheel Jack was initially a pain to pull up into the stowed position. It was straight and would roll fine, but wouldn’t turn side to side. Typical...

    Marsh Stencil Machine

    I would love to have the three other size machines but that will probably never happen. I had been looking for the 1” machine at a decent price for years. 1” is the size I need most often. It is nice to be able to make them now.

    Marsh Stencil Machine

    The guys who make these for sale are much better set up. They usually have all 4 of the different size machines and can handle most all requests.

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    Nope Old Ford Blue Trailer will be pulled by a 1986 Ford 1210 Diesel tractor. Edit: I found this just over a year ago It had been sitting in a field for 15+ years Was free and came with ford backhoe attachment and Ford 48” mower deck Fantastic little 16hp tractor!

    Marsh Stencil Machine

    Since these stencil machines are used at all military repair facilities, I think this probably qualifies being in this forum. Picked up locally a Marsh “Model R” 1” Stencil Machine. Deal included a 50lb case of Marsh oil board for stencil use. Been wanting one of these for years but I refused...

    Changing the Harmonic Balancer Questions any advice or comment?

    Point taken I did a search just now and found all the information and part numbers needed for items discussed. Took 5 minutes. The point of that post is the information is almost always available in older post. This keeps the forums from having dozens of identical threads asking the exact...
