Thanks! New tires will be here next week. Will look even better with new shoes on!

Good luck on the hand brake levers. Very difficult to find and pricey when you do. Most cables on eBay are the wrong ones, yet say they are for the M101A2/3. Surplus parts for these trailers are scarce.

Watching the deer

Fired up new MH bulbs. HUGE Difference! Nice bright white light. Colors look like their supposed to. iphone camera just can't convey just how bright it is and how far they can throw the light. Extremely pleased!! The tower could've been raised at least another two feet. I didn't see the...

Did you look in the TMs? That info will be in there. Will have max weight and shipping weight, etc.

They have gone up in price a bit. Expensive little suckers. $160 at RedNeck Most places are $130 Croft is $113 oh well. It is what it is

Jet A-1 is the civilian aviation fuel. Low flash point, evaporates fairly quickly, smells strong for a bit and burns very nice in Diesels. Still dry as already noted. Freezes at -75 below if I remember correctly. JP-8 is the fuel the US Military uses. British forces also. It is oily to the...

I am extremely pleased with it. Will be getting another one for sure. Everyone who has seen it in person wants one. They can't believe how nice it is inside. When they discover the Kohler/Kubota combo they want to know where to get one. Definitely scored with this! GovPlanet has only sold 25...

I was around them a lot in my US Army Aviation days. Just never looked close at them. Not sure what a "card deck " is that your talking about. I know the TO came with some units sold on GP. I've seen and posted a picture of a page from it. I'm still looking.

The shock? By all means....post numbers.

I've ordered from them several times. No problems I need to get a new surge shock. Mine went out last week.

Yes bushings are tight in tubes and pins rotate within the bushings. Most surplus ones are rusted. Simply remove and use a wire wheel to remove and lightly re-grease and reinstall. The grease isn't required, just something I do, mainly to prevent rust. New pins and bushings will make a...

I might be able to do that tomorrow night. Replacement bulbs arrived today intact. I'm anxious to see too!!

It cranks just fine and is very easy. The unit itself is bigger than it looks. So are the light assembly's. All the way down, the platform top is almost 6 foot tall on flat concrete. Ladder seemed like a good idea until actually dealing with the weight and mass. Close call for sure. Pickup...

Study that was posted elsewhere on SS.

Bushings replace. Pins replace only if they are worn. New parts from the original manufacturer (Hydro-Act) are available from Croft Trailer Supply. www.crofttrailer.com Prices are not bad considering the OEM parts. Be be sure to physically check all the bolts holding on the actuator...

Agree First time I put them up, I used a ladder. Wrong!! About dropped one with me close behind. My Back still isn't the same. Truck with tailgate down is now preferred method. Plenty of foot room to handle the weight. I bet they are over 60+ pounds each.

Label, ballast, capacitor and a lot of wiring inside the lamp housing. The whole assembly is heavy.

I have some night photos of the sodium lamps. Pictures don't relay very well just how far they throw the light Very impressive amount of light, but I just don't like the color. We watched deer come into the field from quite a distance, surprisingly not bothered by the noise or the light...
