    Military trucks seen during trip....

    Most of those internationals are a contract for the Afghan Army, so odds of seeing any on GL are slim.

    I bought a Deuce in Eastover, SC

    If you really want to drive it, contact Ferroequinoigist on here. He is local, and will tow it to his place and give it a good going over for you before you come to get it, for a very reasonable price.

    I bought a Deuce in Eastover, SC

    No brakes, leaving you to run into and kill somebody. Front hub comes apart bebcause it wasn't properly reassembled last service, sending 300+ pounds of tire, wheel, hub and brake drum going rolling into oncoming traffic at 50mph Rear brake locks up, causing a fire. Rear axle locks up...

    Tow Bar # look-up

    Not really a towbar, even though they identify it as such. Those are the spades for the HEMTT wrecker for use when you are winching.

    M-172A1 Trailer Ramps

    If you can find the ramp sections used on the medium girder bridge, they work graet on the 172's and are all aluminum. When I was in a unit that had 172's we were always swiping them from bridge companies...

    What is it and why did it smoke.

    That resistor heats up when the circuit is energized. If I am not mistaken when the glow plugs are bad in a CUCV no electricty will flow. If they were bad for a while that means the resistors didn't get warm for a while, and the first time they did you burned off the dirt anbd grime that had...

    Well,now I own a 915A1

    Shoot, if he can bring it this way, I will meet him anytime. I will have to ask Robert if I can use one of his forklifts to unload it, or we can slide it off one traile onto another.

    Official 2010 SS Ga Rally Info thread

    If I am there, I will have one of these with me- I keep one in each of my vehicles. You never can plan on when you will need an aid bag, but when you need it you really need it. M-39 Medics Jump Bag, fully stocked

    Dura-Lube in a 6.2L Diesel

    Yup. The demonstrations of engines running with no oil pan seem impressive- but in reality an engine run with no load can run a long time like that regardless of additive. They use an inline six because under no load it puts the least strain on the bearings. Here is a video of a Toyota...

    I use the ones with bad insides for hauling waste oil.

    Question: AMG vs. GM 6.5's

    I got mine from an Ebay seller in GA. He was getting very low mileage take outs from the USMC logistics base at Albany, I am pretty sure they were warranty take-outs. Mine had a bent valve from a glow plug breaking off in it, but otherwise was great- it was so new the paint had not even worn...

    metal jerry can ??

    I have restored them, but unless it is a nice vintage one it usually isn't worth the cost of the liner material to seal it back up.

    Question: AMG vs. GM 6.5's

    The heads are different on a 6.5 with the center mount turbo, but a 6.5 turbo from a truck application will have the same heads as the 6.5NA. The angle of the mounting studs for the intake differ between the two. The center mount turbo engines are much less common on the civilian side...

    Question: AMG vs. GM 6.5's

    Now they are not. Until last year there were some facilties rebuilding 6.2's

    Topeka 915a1 pickup today...

    Wow. Hopping right in a truck that had sat for 3 years and heading out on the road is more risk than I would take, much less doing it towing another truck! Glad nothing went wrong.

    Somewhat Sad Day at GL??

    Another shining example of incompetence from Government Liquidation. You can bet it was moved at taxpayer expense too.
