    M818 GVWR

    Thanks. I will probably register and plate it as historical. It will also be awhile before a trailer will be added, so it will mostly be bobtailed and I can always upgrade later. It is the SF97 application that is asking for the weight and GVWR. The truck itself is 19,500lbs w/o winch according...

    M818 tractor loading advice needed for 2 trucks in Indiana.

    RE: thanks M1075! Driving them is always an option. With a tow bar you could tow one back and the other guy can drive the chase vehicle. I picked mine up from there last Thursday. Drove it home over 300 miles. We towed the jeep back with it. One tank was 3/4 full, the other was 1/2 full. You...

    Westy's new Trailer and this will make you puke!

    Thanks Dave. And no heat too. Almost 9 hours to get back home, just over 300 miles, and the roads were dry, thankfully!!. I kept thinking about you and Lane in the snow and traffic on your ride home. I love a recovery trip. Good times, good times......

    Westy's new Trailer and this will make you puke!

    What day were you there Westy? They sure have a lot of nice stuff! Nice trailer you got. That's the first time I've ever seen covers on those. I was there Thursday morning with Pappa-G to pick up one of those tan M818's. Mine was # 12 of 26. I got lucky and won one. Checked fluids, started it...

    Air Compressor Questions

    XM820 OPENING

    The top of the ladder hangs/attaches up by the window. The latch on the bottom secures it. Nice Dave. Don't forget the support legs when it's open. And don't let Lane know it's opened up, he'll be bringing parts over for storage... ;)
