If it’s a shackle point I wonder why they only put them on the rears?

I’m not going to read it bro. I don’t need to learn how to install ambulance parts on my vehicle. If you can produce where this part is in the TM I’ll read the whole thing. Would that make you feel better? That’s the compromise I offer. Now, I won’t retain all of it because 98% of it seems...

so you can’t find where this part is mentioned in the tm? Do you see how this side banter is totally futile and unhelpful? It’s a discussion forum so if you don’t want to discuss then, well, just don’t. Pretty easy.

Cool. Well i emplore you to read the site rules because they state that answering a question with “read the manual” is actually against the rules. ;)

well I’ll solve that issue when it arises but I know who we can’t count on for help. Do you carry the TM or have you committed it to memory? And have you ever seen reference in there to the part in question or are you just trying to seem like you know everything (and unwilling to share) by...

So you’re saying primarily it’s a shackle point for transporting? And the secondary function is a makeshift winch?

Well I went to the shop and found “a bar” and slipped it in there and discovered that my suspicions were correct, the bar cannot work if it’s straight, can’t even go into the flange unless bent. But, if bent too much then the bar wouldn’t go into the flare at all, or if bar was too big...

Here’s mention of it. Is there a rated generic milspec “bar”that goes with these attachments? Or is that to be field remedied?

I really appreciate the bold, large, yellow letters though. -said no one ever.

Well I’m here to say you can save it because I’m never going to finish that novel. I got 3/4 through it and can’t remember a single thing I leaned that I wanted to learn. If this is a discussion group let’s discuss. And correct me if I’m wrong but this is the perfect example of an item that...

So, can I enter a search in the tm and say “welded tube thing” or must I read the entire thing again to find this tidbit? Because either way it would be easier for you to just enlighten wouldn’t it? I wasn’t able to search it. Im sorry but if reading a large military manual is a prerequisite...

Whoa weird my post grew on both ends. For a minute I was afraid I’d already asked the same thing before and forgotten. Anyway this is getting weird because I thought I read reference to specifically saying don’t use wheels to tie the rig down. And that winching technique, while being slick...

Seriously I wish people would read those more. So inconsiderate to bother us old farts while we pickin r butts for things we love to babble on about.

What’s the welded tube thing for in the center of the rear hub? Both rear wheel hubs have a tube welded between two plates bolted on 4 bolts. What am that for?
