    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I am not sure. I was only there for a few hours at the swap meet bsing with folks and scarfing up goodies. I was the nut with the black '10 Camaro that was orange by the time I left. I was inroute to visit my dad in FL. I am not sure if I spoke to you or not, but I left some drool marks on that...

    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2016 - January VOTE HERE

    Can my workhorse of a CUCV get at least one vote? Yes, the Army has retired it, but it sure has life left and refuses the rocking chair.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    That really sets off an already beauty of a truck. I remember seeing that at the rally. You have a lot of hours in her.

    DMV asked for FMVSS proof..

    The FL title just has the vin, make, model. The commercial or noncommercial is on you how to have them do your plates. Here, it makes no difference on the title. The truck is what it is. I have a CDL and the truck got it's annual CMVI (commercial motor vehicle inspection), which they applied a...

    DMV asked for FMVSS proof..

    I also got the FL title and it was a breeze to get it transferred to an Ohio title. BMV just issues plates here in Ohio so they didn't care as long as they got there $550 for my commercial tags. However, we have a reputation here, in the Buckeye State, of having the most lax vehicle laws. We...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    It has killed the industry here as well. Pipeline infrastructure is still going on as well as the random test wells. My county has the highest production wells in the Utica. I can't wait til they go under my land, but I really do hope it don't happen until after the prices go back up. As for my...

    $92 shutterstat fan clutch actuator

    Thank you Swamp Donkey. So that sounds like it is all on the "dry" side and no need for coolant loss. Is this a safe assumption?

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    That's still a great price compared to two years ago! Ours is hanging just over $2. and gas is $1.49. My 5 ton has a flat. It has CTIS, but I see the hole in the tread. Has anyone used them high-end plugs with success on these 14R 20s?

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Are you just going to cut a hole in the bumper where the license plate goes, for it?

    $92 shutterstat fan clutch actuator

    Thought I might get a quick answer on this thread instead of starting another one, but when it is in the single digit temperatures and I start my truck, the fan runs until the engine is completely warm and only then after the engine is shut down for a couple minutes. Is the shutterstat...

    cold starting

    When I was in 30 years ago, I drove our squad truck and it was my responsibility to make sure that truck would start in all conditions and run and if it wouldn't, it was my job to report it and make sure it was always combat ready, even during the cold war. We never left them run, but...

    cold starting

    Even worse, imagine being far from all civilization, having a truck being dependant on electricity. This is why I took measures to make sure both of mine would start at all temperatures, with no outside assistance or tethering.

    5 ton Bobsled, Recovery assistance near Berkeley Springs WV

    If you hooked cables (using comalongs preferably) real low on the truck and real low on the trees across the road, couldn't folks just drive across the cable?

    New from Ohio, M1102

    Hello, from Ohio as well. You probably are who out bid me. Not like I needed one anyway. However I did get me an M101A2 in Illinois, and a M1061A1 out of Louisiana, so I am happy. As for the lights, you can put 12V bulbs in the sockets, and there is plenty info on the wire adapters on here.

    Issues with SF-97

    Good thing hazmat CDL drivers dont have to wait to be cleared before hauling every hazardous load. Which sounds more dangerous, an angry truckdriver that had his/her switch flipped hauling explosives, or a citizen wanting a humvee (for off road use)?

    Issues with SF-97

    I am seriously considering bidding on an euc item. Question I have is, once the euc clears, are buyers required to get the item within eight days to avoid storage fees, even after waiting over a third of a year?
