    M872 - My new GL trailer! :)

    Wow - 34 ton capacity! You're gonna have everyone asking you to haul tanks and APCs around for them! Great save, Daniel!

    Winch Fragged

    10-ton grenade is what it is. Glad you're okay, and you have spare parts.

    M41 5-ton cargo

    Doesn't look like too bad a repair. Some new torque rods and bolt it back on. As long as he didn't cut the rear frame, it's all good. The missing rear bed would be near impossible to find, fabbing would be very difficult, but easier than finding a source for the real deal. Wish I was...

    MV meetings in Europe!

    I'd love to have that MAN 4x4 truck in those pics. Actually, all the trucks look great. You guys really go in for MVs over there in Deutschland.

    OFFICIAL 08' RAUSCH CREEK SIGNUP THREAD!!

    David, tell your sons not to worry - there will be a dozen or so mechanics in our contingent, who just so happen to have experience working on military vehicles. If it's having power issues, we can figure out why!

    M41 5-ton cargo

    Probably worth $1800 is scrap value, with the weight of all the steel in that monster. Would be worth making an offer on, since they are such rare beasts, and lend itself well to a re-engine....

    Comm shelving in 1008

    RE: Re: RE: Comm shelving in 1008 Yup, standard VRC-12 series radio rack. Was used for other radio types as well, it's pretty common. There might be someone in here who is interested in that rack/power supply if the price is right.

    Does airshift affect speed/power?

    RE: Re: RE: Does airshift affect speed/power? No, I wish the reason were that simple. That truck was reading about 63 mph (I know the speedo only goes to 60, but I am estimating the "excess" that the needle was above the 60). Cars were passing me on I-81, but not very fast. All my trucks...

    Does airshift affect speed/power?

    Perhaps a good follow-up question would be: what would cause the differences in power and speed in similar-type deuces, with the same equipment? All of my trucks have had C or D turbos (except for one, which will not be included here), airshift front axles, standard trannies and drivetrain...

    Comm shelving in 1008

    I am interested in a radio rack of a certain type - post pics of it and if it is for a GRC-206 radio set, I'll pick that up from you. If it's for the VRC-12 (most CUCVs had the VRC-12 set installed in them), I wouldn't be interested, but perhaps someone else here is.

    M41 5-ton cargo

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I see a delivery date on the tag of 1951, and it looks to me like this truck was painted tan CARC at the depot. I don't think any trucks were painted tan CARC in large numbers until around the time of Desert Shield in 1990. You think this ancient M41 served until...

    M66 Ring Mount is on the M35.

    Re: RE: M66 Ring Mount is on the M35. emmado22 had one for sale at the Gilbert PA show last week. Not sure if it sold.... Nice job! I like the look of the deuce with a ring on it, but I fear if I put one on mine that the added height would make offroading in the woods a little more difficult...

    RE: Re: RE: Nebraska I wanna know what the deal is with this Morocco B/S. How big is Morocco's Army? Everyone now has contracts to supply Morocco with our used military trucks and gear. I mean really, their mechanized infantry units use camels. Prime movers are elephants. Morocco shouldn't...
