    Military repowered M108's?

    So HERE is that thread I heard of. This oughta be good. As far as heavy lifting goes, if there is no green iron in the compound capable, I have little doubt that D'Town's track hoe would be available. And I know just the man to run it!!!!!

    lifted m1008 be ok for hauling and towing??

    Hauling is no issue, except it's more work because you have to lift everything higher to get it in the bed. For towing, make sure your receiver is as stout as you can get.

    5 ton mud flaps

    Quite frequently there are soft spots between the hard road and the dump spot. I have seen chains/cables that lift the mud flaps up as soon as reverse is engaged. No more torn off flaps (and no roadside consultation with po-po).

    Official 2012 SS Ga Rally Info thread

    Maybe some of those cajuns will make a pot of jambalaya. Now I would eat that. Definite NO on boiled p-nuts and crawdads. We use soft-craws here for bait (smallmouth bass) and I sure don't eat bait. lol
