    Issues with SF-97

    Well, I must be a dumb one since I took you serious too!

    Tire hop

    I would check the date code on the tires, putting extra attention to the steer tires. Mine had such old tires on the front that they had the two digit year code, meaning pre-2000. I was scared to drive over 35 knowing this and had a more side to side hop clearly up front. I just rotated them to...

    Wait a minute, having a fleet like yours, you are indeed blessed!

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Hey, with a fleet like yours and all you had to do was air up a tire, consider yourself blessed!

    Good question.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Just wondering, did you see a nasty color in the overflow tank, or was you still seeing the bright green, clean looking, antifreeze up there? The reason I ask is that so many have mentioned that nasty stuff in the cooling system but in the overflow reservoir mine looks so clean. Am I being...

    Maybe start a new thread asking that question.

    So, what's the one thing you'd change?

    The ONE thing I would like to see changed, is to ban tapatalk. All pictures uploaded through that app are not visible on my phone in "full site" mode. The links may or may not open a picture, and when it does it must be downloaded. That requires deleting in the future (or immediately) decreasing...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Hauled some bug dust (limestone) and pulled two heavy trucks up a snowcovered bank. One was what hauled a septic tank in and the other was the water truck. Neither one helped and the 5 ton pulled them out like a champ!

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Drove mine to get a load of firewood (ends of boards) at a local sawmill. Really liked when they had a lot of orders for coal mine cribbage, as that left a lot of 12x6" ends about 12" to 16" in length. Yesterday all they had was 2x12"s and 2x6"s about a foot long. All hardwoods. If it fits, it...

    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2016 - January VOTE HERE

    I've gotta say it was a rough time getting this combination to where I took the picture. The M332 trailer was a bit of resistance. I knew not to touch the parking brake until getting it to where it will rest for the winter. Well, once it got to it's hibernation location, I did in fact set the...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Hauled two loads of gravel yesterday and my bed raised in gear for the first time since I've had the truck, surprising me. I thought it was a safety feature to prevent a young soldier from driving a raising bed into power lines. Thanks to tow4 for advice on adjusting the linkage, so I might get...

    Them are nice. Do I need to apply for a loan for two of them?

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    It is the year it was adopted. It is an M1911.

    1911 is the year that the manufacturer of the CUCV was founded! Also, one sweet "weapon of war"!

    I thought the only thing 24v on the cucv was the starter and glow plug system. Mine is all 12v lighting (stock). I had to put 12v bulbs in the M101A1 trailer I got for it. I don't know the guy moving to Summerville. Only through the thread he had on his moving. He had someone already mention...

    Good to know on the handling. So it had 12v bulbs or did you change them over? I think the humvees (what this trailer is designed to be pulled by) have 24v trailer socket unlike our cucvees. If your bulbs are a bit dim you could brighten them up with the right 12v replacements. They are bulbs...

    After getting on my computer, I could see the image. Darn tapatalk needs banned! Very nice trailer. Thanks for posting that. I have been considering one of those.
