Woodchip, I'm in your neighborhood. Like the Sam Cooke song would say, "Don't know much about a green MV," but with one in the yard, "what a wonderful world it would be!" PM me if you want to chug around the block some weekend. (That'll pour some gasoline on the fire... :) ) Peter

BigSkyCountry, The weight oft quoted around here is 26,001 lbs as the start of the CDL weight requirement. Most of the bigger trucks have hydraulic brakes ASSISTED by air, not pure air brakes, which also helps keep us out of the CDL territory. Don't forget to add your general location to your...

Bottleworks, I recall that someone out there bought a GL lot which included a bayonet or some other item that required an EUC. When the EUC came through for that item, they were free to buy a deuce without the onerous waiting period.

Just don't throw it in the washer! http://www.steelsoldiers.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=3503&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=peach

Wade, you've got the nice LOUD twin air horns like mine! Congrats on the new truck!

It was once suggested that the locking twist handles for overhead garage doors would work.

Oh, goody! Soon we'll have 77 virgin(ian)s here!

Mr. Backman, Mr. Backman? (I'm raising my hand and sitting patiently at my elementary school desk.) :jumpin: (Well, patiently for someone young at heart...) What exactly does 3+3 MEAN? Now can I go to the bathroom?

I got a message from DR yesterday as well and was equally astounded.

My front bumper had one pre-existing hole on the driver's side and I drilled a mate and mounted the front plate directly to the bumper. For the rear plate I picked up a 2" wide strip of metal with pre-punched holes, mounted that to the bolts on the rear mud flap, and mounted the plate on that...

Hmmm.... outriggers to jack it up, a little skirting material around the base, instant mobile home!

NJDS, You're great for being one to step up on the graphic. I noticed it, but am not so gifted as to be able to follow through with designing a new one. What a varied set of talents you have! I'm an ex-paralegal who can mangle my way through a couple of languages who happens to now be an...

I've pulled the sub-axle, and it does seem to have livened the truck up and made it easier to handle. Can't comment on mileage as I keep losing my data to work out the mileage. Dumb question. With the wonderfully articulated axles, how does one RE-INSTALL the aforesaid item? I can only...

I bought a pair of headlights from him this year. They arrived in as described condition, but took a little while. When asked, he indicated he's a contract snowplow driver for Delaware and had been pushing snow for a few days. I was satisfied doing business with him.

ALERT! MV newbie question: Ok. Price sounds right. How many do folks typically use at one time? One? Two? More depending on application, I'm sure.

My county seems to have given up on using onspots and gone to straight 4WD for all our ambulances. The fire trucks still just use regular chains. The onspots DO hang pretty low, and it looks like they might not work too well with NDTs. I think if you're moving less than 5MPH the chains don't...

Ugg, I think it was Eric at www.miltrucks.com who had the pipes you're looking for. He's at Miltrucks@ameritech.net and is also a member here now as Miltrucks. He's a great guy to work with.

Well, it looks like a possibility for shop vans anyhow...

Mmmm! Serious brush truck!

I don't know about the cushion part, but New Life Resources can make the canvas covers for about $25 an item (back cover, seat cover). Judith Peach New Life Resource Management, e-mail - nlrm@together.net 418 N. Main Street PO Box 176 Bakersfield, VT 05441 (802) 827-6124 Many have gone to...
