Ahab, sorry I missed this. Too many things going on. It was the usual, hamburgers and hotdogs and all the stuff. Some people brought things as well. Don't think anyone went away hungry. We had about 15 vehicles in the parade including the last Navy PBR and took Grand Champion of the parade.
TobyS what is the length on the sideboards for the dump? I recently picked up some troop seats that measure about 10'1" and was trying to figure out what they were for. Thank you. The deuce and rear on the M923's are about 12'2".
Sorry I missed this. Haven't been very diligent on the forum lately. H&H on the menu. Hamburgers and Hotdogs. Ended up with about 35-40 people and around 15 vehicles, including a trailered PBR. Got Grand Champion of the parade and best military unit.
If you have a special family dish for things like this, please bring it. Will have the usual hamburgers and dogs and water and a few other things. My 923 is down right now. Having a time getting the inner axle oil seal out. Everything else is cleaned up and ready to go back in, but need to...

Did you ever get resolve on this? This is my first time on this project, M923. I have everything off and ready to pull the axel out, so have not looked at the inner axel seal yet. But since it is down this far, I figure it had better be replace to. Reason for this job is that the inner wheel...
Thank you for the tip on the inner bearing number. could not find it in other threads and not in the parts list sticky. I have the front end apart on the M923. Had inner bearing failure. Looks like spindle is okay with some polishing. This job is exceeding both my skill and abilities, but...
Actual service will take place at 1100 with a bit of the history and a plaque dedication. Coffee and cookies will be served. Right now we will have 3 vehicles and a few people in early war uniforms, with model 41 field jackets.

If there is interest, we may do a Vietnam display in conjunction with the airshow. The museum has a Huey on a trailer, we would be looking for proper vehicles and displays to show for the weekend. This display hinges on if we are able to get the Gamewardens of Vietnam to bring out their...
