    road speed on a mk48

    I opened a similar thread some time ago... Mk-48 death wobble or hop.... common consensus was a flat spot on the tires due to sitting so long (more tax dollars at work)... I believe someone replaced tires and found that the hop largely disappeared. A harmonic seems to be introduced when all the...

    Which tank to get?

    Tigers are as rare as anything... and there is only one running Tiger in the world that we know of... and it has had the engine blow once, maybe 2x... its at the Bovington museum in the UK. I have no way to estimate what one would cost... millions.... I know I'll start a storm... but the Tiger...

    Awesome Job! Ok when you're done, I'll need you to build one for me on a HET chassis! (I'm only 1/2 joking!) I'd LOVE to have one like this too!

    Any M936 video in operation???

    No video, but your 936 has more than earned its keep: Here she is loading the tag unit for the T-54 delivery Off loading the MT-12 Rapira gun... She's also pulled off armor plate from the BMP-1, the rear armor deck from the T-62, and lots of other duties, including moving downed trees...

    Someone near NC with a BRDM2 or similar to drive?

    Marcus, Short would be a valuable asset for a BRDM-2... The Russians were looking for 5 foot 4 or less... I'm 6 foot 2 and we had one in recently... very tough for me...

    T-54 arrives!

    BMPs are awesome... they are a plumbers nightmare, but fantastic vehicles. Let me know if he wants to sell one as a parts vehicle... it is always wise to have parts.

    T-54 arrives!

    Davin, Good question, and the easy answer is, its absolutely all over the board. It depends on: Type of tank... current most valuable is T-34 ranging down to T-55... on pure tank cost. Of course this would be short circuited if a T-80 or T-90 came available... and I'm searching for a T-64...

    Hey Track Steers are AWESOME! In the scheme of things they do a lot more and are a heck of a lot more useful! We have a JD 328 skid steer that is INVALUABLE... I'd love to have a track steer!

    Hey all, Well after a 1.5 year journey, dodging a potential East Coast dockworkers strike, being told by the dock everything from "the hatches are welded shut" to "the motor doesn't run and the batteries are dead", and a major customs issue (which ATF Imports came to my rescue - Thanks...
