You know what I always wondered about the Blazers - both the military and the civvy ones : what is going on with the busted rear windows on them? Almost every one I have seen in person either had a missing rear window, or it wouldn't roll up/down. I have a hard time believing that out of all...
Well, it's almost Spring, the freezing weather is over and the tarp got taken off the truck today. Will have to get my ass in gear if it's to be done before Aberdeen. PLUS - I decided the rotten rear floor is going to need replacement, the armor is sinking through a couple spots where the...
Pretty interesting. There aren't many WW1 things left around, thanks for sharing the pics!
It's hard to imagine the schemes and bad ideas that folks had early in the days of machineguns when we were coming up with all sorts of bad ideas, well at the time they seemed pretty good. Remember the...
Well, got the test bench, well ok it's the dinner table, set up the other day to test a few PRC-25 and PRC-77 radios that customers wanted me to realign and test out, make sure they were good functioning radios. I have all the tools needed to test these out, but it is a complicated process that...
When I post pictures to the forums, it doesn't matter the size of the pic, the site seems to resize and make it more manageable. However, when I upload a pic in the classifieds, it kicks it back and says the pic is too big. Can we get the resizing feature for the classifieds too, please?

I'm sure there are a few M211 owners here who can use some odds and ends in parts. Buy it, save the parts you can, and junk the rest.
Some off-roaders might be happy with the axles, all else fails....
Someone put a bathtub on four spare tire donuts. There's a word I'm thinking of when I look at this idea. It's three letters long, starts with G and rhymes with RAY.
Trucks I have owned that I named:
M725 ambulance - Gumby (it was bright green)
M35A2 - Jayne
M35A2 - Smokey (take a guess why)
M35A2 - Rusty (another guess please)
M35A2 - Princess (too nice to use)
LMTV - Bitsa (rollover wreck, bitsa this and bitsa that)
I have owned other trucks as well...
Another vote for the geared lug wrench. Most times it works wonders. After that, a 1" impact should knock it off. If neither of them do the trick, THEN the hot wrench.
