    Shortening a 5 ton cargo cover to 2.5 ton 8 pics

    KJ, Find the heaviest duty canvas (especially desert camo!). The machine looks super nice too! Good to see you got it home. Now you need to worry about any girlfriends coming in and seeing it! They might get the wrong ideas (modern women + sewing = trouble at best). Or worse, they might...

    GovLiqidation goodies?!?! Check out these listings!

    Chris, You know you could use FedEx Freight or CCX and cut your costs in shipping dramatically! I use them all the time. I even pick up at their docks 40 minutes from here and $ave even more.

    Best military vehicle of all time

    Boy I wouldn't want to put a 10 ton load on just 4 tires. I had an International 8900 and a 9600. Both had 4 &1/4 CAT engines and air ride. These bad boys had a 13 over and 15 over respectively and I'd never dream of loading them up with 10 tons except to make the trailer legal. And these...

    air pressure

    McI, That's normal for the gov. to do. Mine does the same thing, scares my outdoor cat if she gets on the hood too quickly! She jumps up, hisssss POP, and she's off and running like a flash of terrified fur! It's quite hilarious to see!!!!!!

    Pyrometer

    Guys, I was told to drill after the turbo because you do not get an accurate reading before it because the turbo blades can actually increase the temp. due to friction from the turbo. It seems a convincing argument to me.

    Going to Russelville, KY tomorrow to get parts, prices and p

    Chris, Yep, many are in rough shape, but I'm sure they are rebuildable. Most of them are on the road going back behind Howard's house just to the left of his driveway. Go over the hill (like most of us are anyway) and as you come down the other side you'll see bunches of them. I think some...

    LOOKING FOR WW II 2 1/2 Ton OWNERS!

    Bob, I like that you included where you are in your message. However, to make it easy for everyone could you please include it in your signature found in the control panel so it shows up automatically and you don't need to retype it every time. Plus if you want to include your military...

    UNIMOG Camper

    Guys, My S280 is bigger and hooked up to my M720 dolly set. But I know it's well insulated and very rugged. If you have one with A/C it holds the cool air in comfortably. The insulating material also helps keep outside noises outside. Some inside padding of a quieting nature may be needed...
