    M939A2 Red Dot Compressor Mount Kit Group Buy

    When you say "Red Dot A/C kits" what exactly do you mean? Any Red Dot kit? Do all the kits have the double pulley compressor? Before I commit to something of that nature I want to verify it'll work with what I have (the HMMWV kit to be specific) and figure most others want to be assured...

    Tank Pumping Unit - TPU modification help

    Pump is already gone but we could probably come to an agreement on something to trade for the reel and tool box. Of course it's a "pick up" only type of thing :) I used sealant around the dump valve. I have no intention of ever draining it that way so just sealed it up.

    Tank Pumping Unit - TPU modification help

    Holy cow it's been over three years since I've done anything constructive on this. Turns out once I started storing some diesel in there I discovered the gaskets were shot. I spent a lot of time looking for replacements and never had any luck. Finally I just bought some Viton sheets and gave...

    Lowering the M1101 Cargo Trailer w/ OEM parts.

    I'm running a 2011 F250 4x4 with stock 20" wheels and it's not even close to level. I have an adjustable plate for my pintle hitch and plan to raise it to the top setting but that's still not going to be enough. Even with smaller tires you should still have more ground cleanance than your...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    ke5eua, I have to say if I get stuck you're the 1st one I'm getting in touch with. As often as you wind up buried you should be able to get me out in no time :)

    M923 air conditioning a/c install project

    So here's where I read the price earlier. Where did the $800 price come from? Edit: Never mind. Found the later post with the updated price.

    M923 air conditioning a/c install project

    $800 for a flipping bracket??? I thought somewhere in this thread it was mentioned for around $250. For that amount of money I'll just set an ice chest on the seat with a fan over it.

    M923 air conditioning a/c install project

    Do you have the contact info for Kenway? I've got the HMMWV kit for my A2 and just need to get one of those brackets ordered so I can get it going.

    Amazing! Ever notice how many threads are locked in this Forum?

    Why is it there are always people complaining about the site that, when those complaints are refuted, have to take their ball and go home? And I still don't see how he's "getting treated this way." What way? Expected to follow the rules?

    5 ton m925a2 headlight replacement

    The quick answer is "no." I've heard of folks taking the plugs off old lights and soldering them on to new ones but have no real world experience to give you on that. That alternative is go to one of the Vendors on here and order a replacement or find someone locally that might be parting out...

    Amazing! Ever notice how many threads are locked in this Forum?

    So the rule should be "no auctions except for..." Some people try to bend (if not break) the rules any time there is a rule around. It's a whole lot easier just to have 1 blanket, unambiguous rule so no one can play the "I didn't realize it meant xyz too." The great thing about this country...

    Amazing! Ever notice how many threads are locked in this Forum?

    That's the thread that's been talked about here getting combined and then locked. It was locked because there was no solid information just conjecture. And the deal with not posting auction listings has to do with the potential appearance of collusion or price fixing. No offense meant, but...

    GL no longer processing trailer titles ( m1101)

    TX doesn't require one but I like the added security and also in case I decide to sell it out of state or, heaven forbid, move to another state.

    GL no longer processing trailer titles ( m1101)

    Great. I just bought one and am picking it up Wed.

    Project time again - quickie

    Getting the viscosity right was the biggest problem we had with the Behr too. The only saving grace was that if it ran you just wiped it off and shot it again. It was the only way to get Sinai Grey for the IDF M37 though.

    Any comments on using the Behr (other than don't poke)?

    1st Milsurplus generator buy..think I did ok

    Another option is to look at the Behr paint thread. Lots of guys (myself included) have shot their vehicles with it and turned out great. Since it's water based the only thing you need protection from is your nose hairs turning green.

    Project Ferro Navy M37

    Location of the breathing tube for the fording kit. Since the kit isn't installed the flapper covers the hole.

    Value of an M35A2

    Since the wholesale market seems to be gone I don't see the prices going anywhere but up. As long as someone wants one bad enough they'll pay through the teeth for it. I decided to keep my M923 not as an investment but because I can't foresee ever being able to afford a LMTV now. It doesn't...
