    Custom bumpers

    The hood tips forward, which complicates matters. Probably want to hinge the brushguard portion

    Reserve on auctions?

    GL has been putting reserves on ammo cans, even small lots of them.

    Buying a M1009, would like some second opinions.

    If I was buying it, I'd want to get it for $3500 or so. If I was selling it, I'd start it at about $5500 and expect to get $4500 or so. So, it is neither an exorbitant price nor a screaming deal. If a M1009 is what you want, that one looks ok. Pay no attention to the odometer reading...

    M923A2 Doing 80 MPH!!

    Your gixxer will stop from 130mph in less distance than the 5ton trucks will stop from 70mph. Just saying...

    Reserve on auctions?

    Except they apparently don't know the market as well as IP does. GL's reserve prices are frequently as high as full retail. They had set reserve prices on a bunch of well used warn 24v winches that was higher than retail on NOS ones elsewhere. Not a single winning bid on any of them. $1k didnt...

    Tucson to Nellis AFB and back, PICs

    Before you give me a hard time about taking pics while driving, here's my justification: 1) I took them blind. Not looking at the phone, just point and click. For every one I got that's worth looking at I got 5 or 6 that aren't. Risk was minimal. Comparable to drinking a water while driving...

    Tucson to Nellis AFB and back, PICs

    A couple of you said you wanted pics. Here they are. 5ton to Nellis, first stop was at castle bravo's to grab the drawbar. Then on to Nellis. I handed off some stuff to silverstate55 who is one **** if a good guy, then we hooked up the MK16 to the 5ton and I drove back. Roughly 400 miles each...

    Tucson to Nellis AFB and back

    Leaving tomorrow. Taking 5ton. Bringing back MK16. If we've already discussed transport, your stuff is on my truck already abd/or I've coordinated pickup/handoff with the other people involved. If we have not discussed transport and you need something moved cheap or free, now's your chance :)

    Towing a M105a2 w/ civilian Pick Up ?

    1.5ton trailer would mean 3000lbs in it. Or am I missing something?

    From one side of Tucson to the other

    I had copious amounts of parking at the last place. This new place has adequate parking and a garage where I can weld. Best of all, it doesn't have the neighbor.... the neighbor that sneaks around watching me and complaining. The last place was 4 acres. The house is on the far end of it from...

    From one side of Tucson to the other

    I've spent the last few days moving. I'm convinced I have too much sh..tuff. Filled the deuce twice, the redtruck twice, the M923A2 twice, and an M105A2 full to overflowing..... And filled the M989A1 to the gills... Made a bunch of trips of about 40 miles distance.

    Towing a M105a2 w/ civilian Pick Up ?

    Actually I agree completely. There's "legal", there's "safe", there's "not really safe but you'll probably get away with it", and then there's "don't even attempt it". Without looking at legal aspects I'd consider the tow of the loaded M105 behind the 1ton truck as "safe". I base this...

    Towing a M105a2 w/ civilian Pick Up ?

    My CDL was obtained by going to a truck driving school in KY, total something like 6 weeks. I don't remember the ride along portion as 3 hours, more like half an hour. I'm sure it varies by state. The weight I quoted for my Ram is from when I took a load to the dump. I weighed it full on their...
