That is the right valve and I am sure it is because it matches the TM exactly. Is it freed up so that it allows the proper fuel lines to open? If it is and you want to sell it I would sure like to have it because the 1,200 mile trip on one tank is a frightening thought. PM me if you want to...

RE: Florida Rally Wow Wow Wow! Trucks, Mud, and AR-15's I have to come down now. I would like to see this availble at Aberdeen but Maryland is not weapon friendly. Keep those pictures coming.

Hey Just do what lazy cooks do open it up and hand out MRE's. I never allowed them to do that under my command but had to step up grab an MRE and step down way too many times. Have you ID'd if it has the burner units in it? That will be a nice trip make sure and take lots of pictures of the...

Great Truck Andy God knew what you wanted and gave it to you. Woo Hoo. What a sweet truck. I am going to be picking mine up in March and will be coming up purty close to your 20. I am flying down on the 17th of March and Christian my oldest son and I are driving it back from Tim's place in...

RE: Wreckerman I think Scrounger had some cooking units for sale at last years Aberdeen I would PM him about them and please make sure he de-snakes his M818 before heading up to Aberdeen this year....lol

RE: Wreckerman I have eaten many a meal out of one of those and you got a great piece of Army history there T-rats are purty good but the month after month of lunch buckets they served us in August 90 and on in the Saudia Arbian desert has steeled me on them and I think I would rather have...

When you find out what to tell her let me know my five ton is coming home in March, and I have a couple days prior to shuffle the fleet to make room for it to hide. I think you did very well and just show here the true value of the truck and she might understand you got a $80,000+ truck for a...

When I taught shop they still had the asbestos fire blankets and as soon as you opened the cover you could see the asbestos fibers in the air. I always wore at least a paper filter if I got near them. I did use a couple of them to wrap headers but I soaked them in high temp cement first and...

Got a 6.2 I bought a pretty decent 6.2 liter diesel from them for very resonable price, pulled it home on my home converted boat trailer to flatbed trailer.

This Mod was done before I owned a duece As you can see there are many ways to skin a cat. I have pulled this even with an Astro Van but usually it was with one of my trucks. It had almost 9,000 pounds in it on one trip.

I worked for a plumber in the 70's and used to have the job of coating the new furnaces with asbestos. I made heat sheilding for my headers out of asbestos cloth for quite a few cars and trucks. My old house in Massachucettes has asbestos siding. I would rather have the asbestos around than...

Ok I modded a Jeep using the chassis of an old CJ (VIN from this one)and a body of a YJ the police pulled my son over and gave him a ticket with the Antique tags saying he should have had hot rod tags on it....Peoples republic of Maryland. I have not had any issues with my other trucks...

The Cummins in the 809 series trucks use an electric solienoid to engage the engine run mode. That is why you do not need to pull out an engine stop cable like the duece. Turn the switch on you get the engine running turn it off and it quits. These trucks need electricity to run due to that...

The biggest reason the tractors are coming out is that the National Guard in Transformation has had a lot of reorginization and the tractors are falling out due to 936's coming out of Active Duty units and the FMTV tractors coming on line. I would still like to see some of the 936's stay here...

I used full strength Drain Cleaner in my M52 tanks and it polished them up very nicely. I took the sender out and soaked it in the same stuff and it came out clean as well. I then used Rustbullet to coat the interior of the tanks and the sending unit and I expect them to stay clean as long as...

One of my biggest fights in the 80's was with my transportation regiment in getting CONOPS for armoring our medium trucks. It seemed many had their heads in the sand and when I went to Desert Storm I surveyed drivers all over the theater and only a handfull in a hundred knew anything about...

Wow those pictures make me miss Texas! Looking very good there and hope to see more shots of the rig at home.

Looking Good I like the dump trailer in the background too did you fab that yourself? Will you be working this truck and trailer or are they for your collection?

Mike put my boys somewhere they will be surrounded by Steel Soldiers, They will need at least one if they bring the CUCV and I will check they may tow a trailer too so I will email you shortly and mail you a money order from here.

My 127 has both light systems and I had to go back down to show the inspector that all the lights on both systems worked before he would pass the inspection on it. I would like to convert all my trucks to LED lights just so they become low maintainance but I am still putting my kids through...
