Friends don't let friends fly Soviet era fighters or Robinson helo's. Neither are safe unless your insurance is paid up or you have a death wish. IMHO.

Show me one EBay listing for a M101a3 that sold for $400? '$400 is a steal for the A3 version trailer. This time of year, trailer prices climb since a lot of people use them for yard work. Not having to drive hundreds of miles for the recovery means that a local purchase at a higher price...

Eric, do yourself a favor and don't fix the winch as a mechanical version. Get a pump and change it over to hydraulic instead. I got started in the towing business many years ago. The only mishaps occurred with mechanical winches, not hydraulic ones. The hydraulics will stop working before you...

And while you are getting the master cylinder, check the shock. If it compresses easily, it's time to replace it before you find out that the brakes are jerky. Part number for the shock is 2044-1. Easy to do now plus you save on the shipping.

Not knowing exactly what Milspray paint you purchased, I can't tell you how it will apply for you. Any polyurethane paint requires the use of a respirator. CARC is nothing more than a polyurethane paint with pigments that absorb different spectrum's of light. The curing agent used is an...

Don't forget the home of tax free shopping, Delaware. Trailer Fenders & Mounting Brackets at Trailer Parts Superstore

Well worth $2200. Since your father has a fab shop, there isn't anything that is shown that can't be fixed. As for the rough running, I doubt that the inter-cooler has anything to do with that. The tires were crap before the dry rot you're showing. The Michelin's have problems if they sit...

The base chassis is the M116a3. Once a trailer box is mounted it takes on the nomenclature name of the box, in your case M101a3. They are great trailers. Wide enough to have a full sized sheet of plywood or sheet rock between the wheel wells, ample load capability for more than a ton of stuff...

I'm in for the 8th but I might be a little late if I get stuck working the early shift.

Depends on how long they have been flat. If a short period of time, remove valve core, inflate with 3/8" or larger air line. If they have been flat for weeks, jack the vehicle up and perform the same operation. The key is air volume.

I spoke with Jack this afternoon. They F'd up on the pricing on the regulators. They were supposed to be $274 each, but mis quoted the OP's pricing. Supposedly there going to make good on the price quoted to him, but any new sales will be $274 each unless you qualify for a discount.

Won't happen, the wheels are too close together to mount 9.00x20's. Same bolt pattern as the deuce, but no clearance between tires.

Like I said earlier, I've worked in this arena for a lot of years. My old manager is/was the LM program manager for the F-22. The problem with refurbishment of older fighter jets is that the airframes were only designed for XXXX hours which the planes have exceeded. There are major structural...

Well, I'm going to weigh in and state, if the trailers were meant to dump, there would been a flexible hydraulic brake line at the pivot point and the pivot angles would be straight line not angled like they are. You want to use it as a dump? Change the issues listed above, then we'll talk.

The only issue I've heard of is space for the intercooler being tight. I also toyed with the idea of an electronic DT466 so that it would talk to my electronic Allison. There was a thread about 1-1/2 years back on the 466 swap.

Check the brake line from the union under the drivers seat back to the rear axle. Also do the same thing with the fuel lines since they are all routed within the drivers side frame rail. My Suburban had the same rust brake lines plus the fuel line. It was a major pain to route the lines in the...

It's not just men. Robert's wife is usually in attendance as well as the occasional girlfriend. I'm sure if there are a few trucks there, your kids will have a blast.

Not sure if you are using solid or blind rivets, but Home sells aviation riveting tools. Frequently they have used tools like 2X rivet guns for installing solid rivets. As for the blind rivets, there are a number of hand rivet tools for "pop rivets" that will pull a blind rivet. I have guns...

My first MEP-003A was fairly easy. I used my Dad's 4X8' utility trailer. Mike from Chambersburg picked the generator up with his fork truck and placed it in the trailer for me. Once I got home, I used my "cherry picker" engine crane to pick the generator out of the trailer and set it on the...

Since searching on my phone is a pain, I'll tell you that there was a thread less than two months ago with pics of a camera install. I was impressed enough to purchase one for myself. The monitor is 10.2", is color and accepts two cameras. The camera supplied has a view angle of 120 degrees...
