    Harbor Freight Safety Recall

    Below is an email I received today. I think it was well written, and I like how Harbor Freight is owning the issue. Hopefully they caught this before anyone was hurt. This is a costly mistake for their business. To the Harbor Freight Community: I'm writing to apologize. I often reach out...

    S-318/G Shelter, Electrical Equipment

    Okay.... we recovered a dirty shelter, TAMU86 got after it with the pressure washer, and we unloaded a much cleaner shelter at his storage unit. Mission completed! A homemade platform with four furniture dollies and plywood worked perfectly for unloading and moving the shelter. One person can...

    My first military vehicle

    @Murnan998, I think your thread has officially been hijacked! Back on topic... Congratulations! That is a great looking HMMWV and very worthy of being anyone’s first MV! I hope you enjoy it!

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I pulled the alternator off of my M936A2. It’s not charging. I’ll send it to a shop, and hopefully they can repair it. I was impressed at how easy it was to remove! Here’s a shot with the missing alternator:

    S-318/G Shelter, Electrical Equipment

    @TAMU86 scored a S-318/G shelter that needed to be moved this weekend. Our plan was to use the winch on his Jeep to get the shelter on my trailer. The recovery went extremely smooth. It only took 1.5 hours to drive to the shelter, load it and get back home. Very rarely do things go according...

    M936 Wrecker Boom - Replacement Winch Cable - What about Stainless Cable?

    Rims??

    FTF (use to be a company in Southern California about 7 years ago) was putting those on the Deuces they sold. That’s where I got mine.

    Lmtv Fire Dept conversion in Texas

    Howdy, from just north of Houston. I’m sure help will be along shortly to answer your question. In the mean time, welcome to the site. Guessing by your truck, you are in Krum (near Denton?). You are not far from SS member Fuzzytoaster. He’s a good guy and great source for knowledge and parts!

    Slow deuce

    A starter and alternator shop near me was able to rebuild a Deuce alternator for $80. Good luck with the compressor.
