Well then! Seems that @Crapgame resolved your question - and then you looked for yourself in the TM's for pictures... You are ahead of a lot of folks. Those crusty boring old books will solve a LOT of problems and answer a lot of questions too! I gotta say CONGRATULATIONS for getting the...

Well, at least I discovered something today. My M1089 sounded like a teenager with his new sweetie this afternoon riding down the road. I thought maybe it was one of those "driver boxes" behind the seats. Climbed down and leaned back more than normal - and it screeked and scronked. Rounded...

And in all the excitement - we might have forgotten to say Welcome to The Outfit! Safety first. Get your brake problem solved, then welcome, then we need some pictures! You have owned it more than 5 years and it goes to work to earn it's way almost daily... Give the old girl some time in...

It is really fantastic for you to have the ability to teach the youngsters about the world - and the world of military vehicles. I would say they will remember these days and the adventures as long as they live. Good for you and good for them too!
