Thanks for offering, James. I am trying to get it to Timntrucks so he can bring it to the Georgia Rally. Frodo will see him before he heads east, so that should work best.

Nice! That truck is a beast now! I am glad to see some more Excursion owners on here too. Is yours a 7.3L or 6.0L? Mine is a 2000 7.3L with 212,000 miles and counting.

Nice!! I will call them tomorrow and ask for an extension! Thanks.

Anyone else close by? I guess I will have to give the UPS store a call tomorrow to see if they can get it picked up and held for a while.

A good place to start is the CUCV FAQ. There is a nice glow plug trouble shooting section here: Cucv - Steel Soldiers::Military Vehicles Supersite Welcome to the site. There are a ton of CUCV folks here and most, if not all of us have had some sort of charging or glow plug issue. It's the...

LOL, really funny Case. I am hitting the road early tomorrow to do an all day work session at John's. I am hoping to get a lot of the wiring and air lines repaired/replaced. The air brake system is the only thing keeping me from driving it at this point. Look for an update tomorrow!

Buckeye came through in a pinch! Thanks for the advice. I now have a VA licensed attorney on the case. I will fill everyone in once things are settled. Thanks to Buckeye and the other folks who volunteered their services via PM's. It is nice to know we have some good legal resources here...

Hey Case, I found your business cards in the cab of the 5-ton. They look great. I didn't see my hood anywhere though, LOL! :-P

No kidding? That's a real PITA because Virginia won't accept SF-97's anymore. The only was I have been getting my GL stuff titled it with a FL title signed over from the GL agent. Hmmmm....

That's the one!

Kenny, thanks for the visual! Neil, I am headed down on Saturday if all goes according to plan.

Thanks for the offer. Looks like a neat little trailer, but I am going to keep searching for a M116A3 for now. I also want an A3 so it'll look good behind my future HMMWV, which may be my next project if this 925A2 doesn't kill me! :)

Attention Steel Soldiers members who are also attorneys: There is a lot going on around here behind the scenes these days. I could occasionally use the advice of a good attorney or two or three. If any of you attorney-members would like to volunteer your services from time to time, I would...

Thanks for the feedback guys. I like this M116A3, but it is such a hassle to get a title in VA without the right paperwork. I have been watching GL, but the A3's that are anywhere close to me have been at least $500. I'm going to look at some trailers at Winslow's this weekend too.

Put it in the classified ads please.

I need a trailer to carry the MEP002A. Found this one locally. Thinking of making an offer on it. It is missing the master cylinder. Has 8-lug HMMWV rims and tires on it. Parking brake cables are stuck? No title, bill of sale only. What would be a fair offer? Asking price is $400. I...

Cargo, Tractor, or other? M-39 series, M-809 series, or M-939 series? You can get anything from a gasser, to a multi-fuel, to a Mack, to a 250 Cummins, to an 8.3L Cummins. The choices are endless. Probably the cheapest way to get into a 5-ton right now is to look for an older M-39 series or...

Weird. Wonder why they have separate P/N's? Any NSN's or P/N's on your windshields?

The louvers are on the outer frame, not the inner windshields. I don't have my truck in front of me, but I believe the difference is the location of the latch mounting holes. The top piece of the inner frame where the wiper motor mounts has the same P/N on both sides. The bottom u-shaped...

Thanks ARY. Hopefully somebody else will post up.
