    Billet wheel hubs/adapters M101a3

    anything other than the Humvee wheels will stick out too far, and even farther with adapters. Get the spacer/adapters for the truck instead and run the Humvee wheels & tires on the truck. You could pull a hub, check for some ID and contact a trailer manufacturer to see if they could get a...

    Selfridge Deuces

    Way cheaper than regular rates!!!!!!!!! 2 trucks 180+miles for $450 Even at $750 It would have been a better way to go than all the spares & tools & chase vehicles, personnel, etc. If you can hit just I-94 it's not bad, but I had to go across town to I-75 & that was too much city for me with two...

    Since when did the US use these?...........

    Selfridge Deuces

    Like last years auction there, they were almost all FMS. They were brought in to the Air Base so the FM's could check them out and the ones they wanted could be flown out from there. As such, they were road ready 3 or 4 years ago when brought in.

    Metal bending question

    80° bends, a couple of them. bending the 1" thickness x 3 1/2" wide? piece of cake 3 1/2" thick x 1" wide, 50 tons should do it, heat may be required. I have done 2" square bar 90° bend, just got it orange with a torch and put a 6 foot pipe on the end with about 450lb of ass on the end.

    "unregistered vehicles" can't speak for Fla but here in Michigan, a simple "ORV" license (off road vehicle) can be used to get around that complaint, they are $16.25 a year and no vin or title required.
