. Well, it looks like I started reading and missed that this was an old thread that was started about three years ago... Sad to say that Stop, Look, Listen and Live that Southern Railway was pushing at grade crossings on the 70's didn't solve the problem. I guess they helped some though...

. Hate to say it, but there is gonna be an ass-whipping if I don't get my change. I am a patient person, but my money is mine. Even a nickel that is mine will be put in my hands before I walk away - or they can give me back whatever money I gave them - and they can keep their goods. I had a...

. Like all the other guys mentioned - Welcome to the outfit! There are lots of good folks out there in Texas that have MVs and are willing to point you in the right direction for parts and information. As mentioned, grab a bunch of pictures of your New-To-You vehicle and post them for the rest...

. Heck of a nice truck! I really like the inside of your box on the back too! Welcome to the outfit! That 720 mile trip and safely done with no real trouble is a great confidence booster! If you go on a quest for air leaks, house air into the red glad hand will pump up the air system without...

. Well Congratulations! Welcome to the outfit too! Snap us a few more pictures. Inside and out, under the hood, under the truck... All of those pix will start yourself a new thread in the "Present Conflict" forum. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/forums/hmmwv.29/ That way you can show your...

. Just thinking along with you... The 4 spring leaves measured against 3 leaves should be the same height. There could be a difference if adding that third chunk of metal was designed to add more carrying capacity. Different spring companies do it differently. Some add to carry more weight...

. I really like that Pole Barn. Nice metal structure to support that cover... 'Course the gravel is good stuff too! :cool:

. Welcome to the Outfit! That's a nice looking rig you have there... The trailer that hauled your new-to you little green monster home is pretty nice too! There are quite a few guys here with those machines so as you discover things - there are good resources to learn from and share with...

. Looks like a nice paint job and some big fat tires on it... If the inside is anything like the outside, it appears that you have a nice truck! Welcome to the Outfit! Be sure to download the TM's for your truck! The M931 is covered in the M939 Series of Trucks

. The "fail condition" for the air engagement on the fan clutch is to be ON. Is it possible that you have an air leak? Where maybe you could add "house air" to the red gladhand (CHOCK YOUR WHEELS FIRST) to air up the truck and see if you can find a hissing noise? You won't be able to turn...

. That is sad and spastic... I had a problem with my CTIS where "it works - it doesn't work" and strangely in my particular case, unconnecting the box from the wiring I discovered a white powdery look. Got after it a little with canned air. Disconnected the batteries - just to make sure I...

. I am liking the lake idea pretty good... You could always offer the FD the ability to draft water out of your pond I almost think you need to be writing a book. Makes me smile when you spin up a yarn for sure!

. That would be a major win... A new fuse would be a nice fix for sure. Might be worth your time to clean that fuse holder and apply a tiny bit of anti-oxidation paste to the new fuse.

. Dang good idea... Especially if you are doing the move yourself. AND this 4 point plan is a great way come in under budget!

. Dang right because there is this small thing called 2A and for some stubborn reason I feel the need hang onto my rights. The way I see it that is very binary. Straight up answers like YES or NO. There is no discussion to be had...

. Yes Sir! Somehow, I don't think it would be fun at all - if those bay doors were open~~!

. Wow! Nice! Getting a good insurance story rather than Gloom and Doom sure is refreshing... Congratulations. Really glad that Hagerty took good care of you. (No, I don't work for an insurance company)

. Hey! I resemble that remark,,, It definitely looks like a 70's sending unit to me. :cool: Looking good. Always nice to be able to adjust!

. Well, let me stir the pot for you on that. Back in the dark ages when the dinosaurs roamed the earth, back when you had to walk to school UP HILL in the snow in both directions - there was an Engineer. Back in the late 70's and early 80's this Engineer figured out that in the brass fittings...

. It really is amazing how that lockout pin can be ignored. Until you have a few hundred pounds (maybe even nothing) in the trailer -- and you try to back up a small incline -- and the brakes lock and you are stuck. Without that lockout pin, about all you can do is say a string of 4 letter...
