    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    They are some interesting doors on the cab of that MV. Was that an early attempt at UP-ARMORing the cab?? Thanks.

    Yes, Sir. CARNAC has already opened this topic with Cathy and i will be following up with this and several other areas of concern. At this time, as others have already encouraged, the generosity of this brotherhood is being tested. As for most middle aged folks, we think we are 10 feet tall...

    UPDATE: I'm sure the family has been occupied with the viewing today and are preparing for tomorrow's farewell. (I have not yet received a call from Cathy or the children.) What I have gleaned from those with whom I have spoken who are aware of Ed's household/family situation, for all...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Ahab, To help you understand I'll try to translate it into the Olde English that the early Virginians would have spoken thusly.... "Ye cracketh doth leaketh mind ye in the most copious of qauntities having overburdened yon beast beyondeth her extremes. Aye, her cogs and crags engageth not...

    Katrina Deuce Story - MUST READ

    This thread has again lay dormant for about 3-1/2 months. I have just re-read Sarge's story in its entirety. It is time to BUMP it. We are in tornado season all along Tornado Alley. Hurricane Season isn't far away. May we always be aware that God does not call the equipped, He equips the...

    Update.... I have spoken to the funeral home (who cannot give out phone numbers etc) and they will be asking the family to call me regarding Chaplain and/or other assistance. More will be relayed as it becomes available. I also PM'd CARNAC and asked if any other members near El Paso or Las...

    in this otherwise glum thread, I wish you a happy birthday, Sir! You raise an important point. Some of you know that while i serve as Chaplain here, my "paying job" is as a Funeral Prearranger working for/with a small cluster of 4 funeral homes. I see the lack of planning and preparation more...

    Prayers up for your situation and its resolution. I edited the thread title to attract the appropriate attention. (Will update from the "Mayday status" once you give us the "all clear") Please keep us informed as this evolves. John PS: Welcome to the SS website.

    Thank you all for networking this information. It's 2330hrs here in Texas now - 2230 at Las Cruces NM - I will be making phone calls in the morning. I am in shock. FMJ's LZ is quite near my mother-in-law's current location and, although she is soon to move to be near us, he and i were going to...

    2016 TX MV Rally

    As the call of "CONVOY UP !" is heard across the land, I offer this pre-rally prayer.... Heavenly Father, We often utter the phrase, "God bless Texas," but at this time we will modify our request to, "God bless all those about to rally in Texas." Give them all safety in their travels, keep...

    Legal headlight height

    In the "commercialization" of an MV, would an ICC BAR on the back also be a requirement?? https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=ICC+BAR "Oh what webs we weave."

    5ton Converter Dolly

    I don't know if anyone already has these in production. But it shouldn't be too difficult to get a machine shop with a lathe to turn a couple of grooves in a piece of round-stock of the correct diameter. I would suggest that after machining your "interlocking king-pin" be heat treated and...

    Supplies for a Long Trip

    We would also do well to remember that some 2000 years ago, when Ceasar was about to invade England with its heavy fortifications and larger number of warriors, and being so far from their Roman homeland, he gave the order, "BURN THE SHIPS". His men then knew there was only one way home -...
