I hope this is ok to ask here- a few years back I used a holler on here to move a deuce-and-a-half. Is there a section where truckers list their services here? I can't find it in the classifieds, just page up on page of people wanting to move vehicles. Thanks for any help.

Hey guys, Thought I'd share my Veteran's Day Apache Long Bow Attack Helicopter experince with you all. I took Veteran's Day off, but went into the office to do a little work. While there, I heard dispatch send a couple of our units to a military helicopter that landed in a field off one of our...

*I searched this topic and found some info. I pulled TM 9-2320-361-20 and found a trouble shooting test for this, but I don't think it addresses what the problem is- but I'm no expert. It's dark out and I'm just looking for some input.* My batteries are good. The truck starts first time...

Does anyone have a part number or measurments on the proper length, thread pitch, etc. for replacement studs for HEMTT rims run on a 5 ton? I read that to safely mount the HEMTT rims on an M809 series truck, the studs should be longer and this would only apply to the rear tandems (?). MASIC...

Can anyone confirm or deny that the NSN # for the temperature sending unit of the Cummins NHC250 is 6620-00-814-5271? I have searched the M809 TM's for this number and found how to change it, test it, etc. but I cannot find the replacement #. The one on Saturn Surplus lists this NSN #, but...

My Deuce is registered HISTORICAL in NY. Registered weight is 26,000 lbs (Max weight for regulary old class D license in NY). I registered it at that because it didn't cost a penny more to do so with historical plates. The DMV lady was surprised as well (big surprise). Any other New...

Guys, I've search and found a lot of info on the split ring wheels and safety issues when airing them up. I have not found any info here that addresses airing up HEMTT wheels with XLZ (my plan for super singled 5 ton). I will also have bead locks in the tires (Do I really need them????) I will...

Please, no flames... This is probably a dumb question, but can a PRC-77 be tuned to any of these five frequencies, or are they to "narrow"? Thanks in advance for any help with this info! John •151.820 MHz •151.880 MHz •151.940 MHz •154.570 MHz •154.600 MHz *EDIT* The next dumb Q is, if the...

A number of years ago, I sold a demilled 106mmRR w/ T&E and wheel barrow mount here in NY to a gent from the south (I think he was from the south). I lost track of him and would just like to touch base. I can't find any contact info for him and I can't remember his name. If anyone on here is...

My vent tube on the cap to my brake fluid resevoir has been cut and crimped. I'm assuming this is bad? I don't know why it was cut and crimped. 1) Should I leave it alone? 2) If not, can I cut the crimped end off and secure a hose from the fitting on the cap and run the hose down below the...

I have just gone through one of the most bizarre ettempted transactions for the purchase of an item I am selling here on SS and think others may benefit from a requirement for new members (unless it already is a requirement?). Without getting into tons of detail, I was contacted by a new...

I'm only posting this for guys who do future site-searches and come up confused like me. After searching threads and not finding anything conclusive (other than a Car Quest part # and no Car Quests around here, and a part number that was for a radiator over fill, not a radiator cap), I came up...

I'm getting a VIC-1 with suppressor and three stations that will be installed in my Deuce. I would like to install a military loud speaker in the back troop compartment for passenegers so they can hear me (or front seat passengers) when I need to address them. Some Q's: 1) Is this possible...

A neighbor told me that shifting the Deuce would be smoother if I double-clutched. I tried it (clutch in to take it out of gear, disengage clutch, clutch engaged again and place it in to higher gear) and it did seem to shift smoother. Does anyone here double clutch and is there any reason one...

I purchased a 10" centrifuge from Tim at Wolverine Technologies prior to Christmas in order to take advantage of the $100.00 discount he was offering at the time. My observations are as follows: * Tim answered all of my questions prior to the purchase in a timely manner. * It arrived in the...

I have tried uploading pics into a post and I can't. I have always been able to do this and now see that the "IMG code is OFF". I tried to change this setting in my user CP section, but no luck. I am uploading from my camera and NOT from a hosting web site. The "Posting Rules" at the bottom of...

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I should attach ball valves to my 55 gallon drums for WMO cleaning? Is it as simple as cutting a hole and threading a valve in, or should I weld it? The barrel walls don't seem thick enough to make a solid hold on a valve that is just screwed in...

What have you guys used, or what would anyone suggest be used, as the "armor" on an M35A2 gun truck I'm planning on building? One suggestion in an old MV magazine I have is Masonite reiforced with ripped 2x4's. This is more like "Hollywood Armor". The weight savings over steel would be nice, but...

Looking for a price to haul RO/RO service from 13122 to 46614. Ramps or RGN needed to load/unload. I've gotten quotes as high as $6000.00 and as low as $460.00 (not holding my breath on that one). I hauled it 3000 miles for $3800 which included the wide load permits in every state it went...
