    Mechanical Booster Pump "making oil"

    I want to thank Dylan for taking the time to post up this most excellent thread. It was an immense help to me and I appreciate it. THIS is exactly what this site is for: To assist in ways the TM doesn't. The TM doesn't show any "tricks" to moving the engine over to access the booster pump...

    M543 Restoration begins...kinda

    I've always thought the hardest MV in the world to paint was a wrecker. Just looking the back half makes me tired.

    Calendar - only birthdays!!...???

    I used to put the Ga Rally in the calandar but I thought no one looked at it, I haven't even bothered the last few years. I didn't realize we still had a calendar! I like the idea but it would be a steep learning curve to "train" the users to begin putting rallies cookouts, picnics, parades...

    Official 2013 SS Georgia Rally Info SSGR13 thread

    I was referring to the area waaaaaay far in the back, past the "bowl" where Mahala was practicing carrier launches. That area is actually really nice-the trails are in a grid section and they're graveled and all the area is shaded. The ONLY downside to being that far back is a longer walk to...

    M756A2 pipeline construction vehicle

    The pipeline trucks are really neat. Army Motors had a great article about them last year.

    Rear Main Seal replaced - now more leaking

    Does the engine have too much oil in it? Was the crank surface smooth (i.e not grooved and requiring a sleeve)?

    Battery/Starter Problem

    I have a truck that as soon as you hit the master power, the starter runs. Unplug the starter switch and it's ok. Obviously a stuck starter switch.

    Official 2013 SS Georgia Rally Info SSGR13 thread

    I agree. The 12 hookups in the field are not anywhere near enough. I should reiterate that since the hookups are a fixed asset, anyone can rent them. If you are just an attendee and not selling anything, you are still free to rent them. I hope that one day D-town will develop that rear area...

    Official 2013 SS Georgia Rally Info SSGR13 thread

    Yes. Although Ferro's wrecker puzzle took up a lot of the field, it was still crowded and people who made large purchases had to deal with tight aisles to get the wares to their vehicles. So we felt that since D-town isn't charging for or limiting our space that we would take advantage of it...

    Poofstock 2013..

    Everybody, I really apologize-I accidentally locked poof's thread yesterday. I have no idea how I did this. It takes several steps to lock a thread so I have no idea how I did this.

    Official 2013 SS Georgia Rally Info SSGR13 thread

    We started in 2006 with about a dozen people in my backyard for a cookout and in 6 years, grew to an event with over 100 vehicles, 150+ if you count mil trailers. Good swap meet, great offroading, it really is an awesome event. For scale, the MVPA National Convention, an event that's something...

    I somehow tricked Swiss into taking it this year, so I suspect it will be far more laid back for me!

    What color paint brings the most money?

    I think either solid green 383 or 3 color. I think 3 color is the most popular but by painting it solid green, you get potential buyers who like solid green and camo-because they can add the brown and black later. I think most of us are old enough that our idea of a military vehicle is...
