    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    SHAZAM ! I DO see the spring mounts now! I'm viewing the pics on a larger screen and I now see that they are indeed present. I apologize for sounding an alarm unnecessarily. The beds on the Deuces and 5-Tons that I have observed in their unaltered state typically have bolts ONLY it the two...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    The frames of these trucks are designed to twist/flex on uneven terrain. The beds are therefore hard-mounted using the rear anchor points and the front anchor points have LONG spring mount bolts assemblies. HOWEVER... It looks like your front mounts have already been altered to be hard-mounted...

    Saw this article about an F-117 Nighthawk being retired to the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and realized we have not yet started a dedicated thread for this aircraft. So.... here we go ! ! ! We'll start with these photos and their source article: ...

    Ah, brother Ahab! Thank you for pointing out my Faux Pas. My manners were below standards. I apologize if that offended anyone. Most sincerely, please forgive me.

    Military vehicle. radio group

    Well... now that you bring up that question.... Uncle Sam's various intelligence agencies HAVE decommissioned several satellites which are still in orbit and functional. The most well known (at least by it's products) are the KEYHOLE family of Photo-Recon Satellites which are now generating...

    Hmmm..do you like low flying aircraft?....then here ya go!

    I am reminded of the Glider Pilots of WWII. Their primary role was following the tow plane, tripping the cable release, and then performing a successful (typically crash- ) landing. Once that mission was complete, they were pilots-turned-infantry and had to morph into a completely non-aviation...

    I actually have no idea what that bracket is for. But I've just got to add this: "It's there to make young troops ask questions..... Now carry on." :goodjob:rofl

    Heavenly Father, You have called home one of this brotherhood. Please cover his family, friends, and all who grieve his passing with legions of Your angels. Lift the burdens of their hearts and bring to them that peace that surpasses understanding that Neil is now with You. Thank You, Lord...

    Need a tractor that can pull a semi trailer for movie

    Hmm... Yeah, MANY rushed to judgement saying that the space program was doomed to failure too.... long before the first THE RIGHT STUFF was ever filmed. Fortunately, others waited until the fruit was on the tree with both the NASA program and the first film before they started judging what was...

    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2019 - October VOTE HERE!

    My twitchin' votin' finger has spasmed on ONE and cast my ballot. To y'all who this month are the runners up, PLEASE re-submit your MV's in future competitions. So many are worthy. It somehow seems unfair that we must choose just one from many.

    MV illegal on highway in Canada (Quebec)

    I encourage you to use that impending date as leverage to motivate by potential public outcry any elected, appointed, or hired official to GIT 'ER DONE! No bureaucrat likes that sort of negative fallout to be looming over their governmental employment security. Still praying from Texas for...
