    "weekend at kipmans" ( rear main seal)

    Kip is great. Nothing like having someone around that can walk under the truck to work on it. :-)

    Taxes

    Everything I have purchased has had taxes on it. I went in to see what I could do with the titles for the trucks and they were just going to deduct that tax already paid/collected off my tax bill at title time here in Ohio.

    Inverters and battery banks

    While I'm sure it works great is it just me or does your well house look like porta-jon from a science fiction movie?

    2011 Haspin information/dates/attendance

    I got hit with jury duty as well and postponed it twice and then they didn't want me. I'm sure that the Haspin Rally will be over by July. :-)

    My M109A3 into with Volvo 660 Air ride Bober

    Looks good. I have a question about the Mahindra. Do you like it? I have a dealer down the street from me and thought I might want to stop in and look at them.

    I want to tow my Corvette with my Deuce... Suggestions?

    Find someone to follow you (not too close) and get them a plane or bus ticket back. I would not try to modify a trailer to tow it in any case. If it were me (and I have had to get a low car up on a trailer) I would get an equipment trailer that already has a pintle hitch setup and do it that...

    2011 Findlay Show...After Action Report!

    Yuck! I'm glad I went and slept with my wife instead of staying there Friday night. No telling who I would have ended up with.

    2011 Findlay Show...After Action Report!

    It was nice seeing the gang again. My only aggravation (other than Kip) was Michelle trying to teach me how to braid paracord. I actually got one done today. My biggest surprise was someone came up behind me and started blowing on my neck Friday night. I thought it was Gimpy but it turns out...

    Rust in fuel tank

    I have a guy locally who will dip the tank and coat the inside for $200. I'm not sure he could help Tigger since he isn't a miracle worker. ;-)

    High scrap prices claim another M123A1C

    They went down $2.50 or they went down to $2.50 a hundred? That would make scrap $50/ton. I just called and it was $269/ton in Dayton three weeks ago.

    Rust in fuel tank

    Is it that white crusty looking stuff? If so, I have it in mine. Had it when Kip bought off GL, had it when Kip sold it to me and it still has it. Oh yeah, if it's regular looking rust then it is from moisture in the tank above the level of fuel.

    Titling a Gov Liquidation Trailer in Virginia

    I'm surprised they even let you breath without paperwork and being taxed in Kalifornia. They best thing about the state is that I don't live there anymore. (Yes, I'm sure they are just as glad as well.) Good luck getting anything reasonable over on that group.

    Titling a Gov Liquidation Trailer in Virginia

    I just got my plates two weeks ago on one of M101A2s. I took it directly from the GL lot to a gravel yard and got a state approved weight ticket. I towed it home and next day I stopped at the BMV and got plates for it. No title, no nothing except the weight ticket. She wanted the serial...

    M818 Registration question

    Here's what I do. Get the title and a bill of sale when you pick up the truck. Drive home. Make sure you have insurance that will cover you bringing it home though. I'm not saying it's right or legal, it's just what I do.

    Multi Fuel engine on propane?

    I believe propane is used like NO2 to produce more horsepower in a diesel engine. I have my doubts as to being able to use it alone.

    Help Broken Stud !

    If putting a nut on it still doesn't work get some freeze mist from Radio Shack or a local electronics store. Slowly heat the manifold and then spray the freeze mist on the stud. The thermal expansion and contraction may break it loose and you can then turn it with a wrench. It might even...
