    I broke the front axle

    I hear you; trashing stuff can be GREAT fun: - You reminded me of my reserve days when three of us (Seabees) shot-up an old empty fuel tank and reduced it to just the thinnest of scraps. - We were all squad machine-gunners (M-60), at the range for training that day, and a the end of the...

    Australia: Importing US MV's

    You bet: - Pictures are ALWAYS good! Even if it's just a shot of you nervously mopping your brow, anxiously awaiting delivery of the "baby"

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    You might take a little heart in knowing: - The winch is likely LONG overdue for a bit of PM service. - I don't think there are THAT many parts to a winch (relatively speaking). - And after you're done with the overhaul, you're going to be a whole lot more familiar with your truck then you...

    Modern Russian Army in the photos.

    Wondering what the crew size is of the SU-17; it almost looks like there's enough "glass" in the cockpit to be 2-3 in there: - Pilot, Navigtor, Weapons officer?

    Haspin fall get together 2015

    You look like you might be relatively new here, Huntress23, and wanted to be sure you got an official hello if you hadn't already, so: - Welcome from out here in Virginia, the home of Thomas Jefferson.

    Hmmm..do you like low flying aircraft?....then here ya go!

    MAYBE that chute had time to open. And maybe that pilot landed far enough from impact to be safe. I sure hope so, because THAT is a picture of a bad day at the office (and the farmer saying to himself, "Shoot, there goes ALL the rhubarb for Ma's pies this Fall...")

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Normally I'd say a Parts Store (but they don't carry EVERY kind of spare). Are you looking to buy: - New buttons? Or... - New hands!?

    Modern Russian Army in the photos.

    Now THAT explains the ground crew in overalls and jogging suit. I was wondering about that.

    Modern Russian Army in the photos.

    I am not a Russian speaker, but it's an excellent quality video; kept my rapt attention for 6 minutes (all the time I could give it right now), quick pace and state-of-the-art editing. If anybody got through the whole thing and thinks something there was worth the effort, please post that (and...

    M1010 for my daughter the field biologist

    I might be missing something here, but it looks like the alternator is grounded to ITSELF, and that doesn't make sense. It's that smaller wire between the two terminal posts right?

    M1010 for my daughter the field biologist

    Does this apply to Alternators only: - or is it also recommended that battery leads have different sizes based on added extra loads (beyond OEM standard, like a crane, etc)?

    Agreed. Kindergarten really WAS crucial wasn't it!?

    1952 M135 W/Winch

    Impressive; that product is very professional (title sequences, the fades in-and-out and all the rest). Where did you pick up THAT skill set!?
