    gov liquidation not nice people

    I'd suggest contacting our worthless POS lib Attorney Gen Tom Miller. He/they seem to love shaking down "big business" for the benefit of the little guy. Might even get something don't. Certainly BS that they sell you a vehicle and the try to sell you the title seperately. What a load of ...

    10 Ton

    10 ton Can't argue about the engine but what is, is. And decent 1980 F350 likely will cost twice what a decent 1960 1ton but will do a lot more work, at a higher speed, more economically.

    10 Ton

    10 ton Check that out VERY throughly. I've set up moves of 5x M911 from various parts of the US. There are several states that are militant about enforcing 102" as max width of licensed vehicle. Load can be whatever your oversize permit allows (including overwidth extensions on a trailer)...

    10 Ton

    Think about an M911? Appear in govliquidation on occasion and a lot more of a truck (and more modern). A very low mile M911 with M747 trailer was headed my way last year. However the Iowa Forester ventilated the block (both sides) while on I80. I don't know if has be thru GSA auction yet or...

    Jacksonville, Fl area

    Lets give it a shot. I have no idea how I'll get them from Ga to Iowa. The cabinet co that donates backhaul space to Fire Dept projects hauls wood on all their loads out of the SE. Will figure out something. I'll need to fax release info to DRMO Jacksonville. My PM seems not to work. Can...

    5 ton from Nebraska to Northern Michigan??

    I think it will still be worth it You going to be able to reduce for transport (remove gravel shield, canvas/hardtop)? If not truck is 111" high and you need dropdeck trailer. TM says 22760lb for M51 dump w/winch

    Jacksonville, Fl area

    6pallets each pallet has one pump. Pumps are 32" x 38" x 24"h 144lb ea. I'm sure the pallets are std size 48"x40". Pumps don't have to stay on their pallets but may be easier to transport to Iowa on pallets.

    Jacksonville, Fl area

    Unfortunately they are still sitting at the DRMO (if they have not turned into pumpkins). Would you have room to pickup? I have a volunteer that is going to DC on vacation and is willing to drive our new/gonna be fire truck (6x6 F900 semi tractor) back to Iowa in mid July. My thinking was...

    DRMO closings

    The other part of the story. Units/activities that former hauled turnin items to the nearest DRMO (usually within 2-4hr max) will now have the "option" of holding on site for the DRMS listing period. Jury is out on how this is going to work out. The closed DRMOs are apparently going to have...

    Stark FL

    Good bet that condition is not an issue. AF buys thousands and parks them. When they need to move a shelter they get a forklift and put it on a flatbed truck to haul it. Eventually clock winds down on it, the get more $ and dispose of it. Then buy a new dolly. Approx same wheelbase as M820...

    Current Load in Accessory/Master Switch?

    Not that it would necessary be a "gottcha" but doesn't every single CAT ignition switch use the same key (as ever CUCV has the same key)? Any standard ignition swich with an appropriately sized relay will handle any load and with NO safety worries. A better way to go with more than a small load.

    How large of tires will fit

    That account sure has ZERO relationship to anything I've ever heard about super singles in the field. Certainly had no such issues with the M923 series with supersingles. M35 rolls easily??? News to me, recall no such during 19yr active and & reserve.

    MEP-003 10kw diesel genset

    I did have air in leaking in the fuel lines. Replaced the 3pack series of fuel filters with 1 modern spinon. No air leaks away it goes runs like a champ. Think will do the same for the 2x Mep002. Don't have time to waste dinking around with obsolete filters.

    LOTS of surplus Deuce in the pipeline

    Quite a few 3/4 M101A1 list (40+) 1/3 of them at Riley. Must have recently returned from the sandbox. I don't follow them so not sure reutilization rate (my guess is very few are reused).

    LOTS of surplus Deuce in the pipeline

    Nope no 5t at Riley at present on DRMS site. 5t tend to have a higher reutilization rate by fire dept at they make great wildland or brushbrakers an large enough to make a small water tanker. Though there are 10x M813 series semi tractors at Ft McCoy. I'd be surprise if some of them didn't...
