Oh, sorry. Scott's at Expedition Imports. Glad I could help...if it indeed helps your starting, too.

Maybe this isn't SEE and HMMH specific, but might be helpful nonetheless; Didn't get a battery "key" with the SEE so I used a red one off a regular, cheap battery disconnect switch. It worked fine...for a while. Once it got colder (or maybe that didn't have much to with it) the SEE wouldn't...

Tony, Now you, too, can get the pair. There are two HMMHs coming up on the 27th. Can't be all that many left, if indeed only 290 were made. Took mine a for a short drive today, finally, and the rebuilt crane cylinders seem happy again. Even got the suspension lockout working (with a weld and...

Tony, there are four SEEs coming up for auction next Wednesday. Just do it!

I, too, bought the SEE as a tool - That the actual tools and various bits and pieces were still in the tool box was a welcome bonus. Would've never went out and bought any of them, but since I have them I'll likely keep them. Who knows when the need to break up some concrete arrives. Might just...

I just knew there was a reason I didn't care for the chainsaw. Well, I don't like regular ones, either. If a tree must come down, it's more fun to winch it down with the Jeep.

Lucked out and got all three, and then some, with the SEE, but haven't considered selling them. Unless, of course, I can trade the chainsaw for an impact wrench - the HMMH was completely empty. Today's lack-of-progress report: Two of the cylinders on the crane leaked. Took them to a shop to get...

I'd love to have that lockout on the rear of the SEE, but as it is the one on the HMMH isn't even working (cracked reservoir - which I don't even know where to fill, or with what yet). And, yes, that lockout system seems complex. The first thing I noticed was "air noise" when depressing the...

Neither did I...until I realized that I needed a forklift with more capacity than my M6040 Kubota (with fork attachment) could muster, and the "sky hook" wanna-be crane I built for it. But if I could only have one, I'd keep the SEE. It'd be too time consuming to clean irrigation ditches with a...

Alright, this might be a long shot, but does anyone here happen to know what kind of fluid goes in the front suspension lockout on an HMMH? This is by no means an urgent request. First I need to repair the cracked plastic reservoir, and also figure out where the heck one is supposed to fill it...

Don't forget to drain out the extra fuel from the tank. Of course, unless the tank was near full and you didn't run the engine backwards very long, it's a non-issue.

Well, I use my SEE around the house a lot, too. That sure beats trying to use it inside the house.

Ah, sorry, forgot about that part. Removed a drive axle as soon as possible, so I never had to deal with that issue. And yes, if getting a CDL, get the real thing, with as many endorsements as possible.

You may want to look at the CDL and the registration of the vehicle as two separate issues. If registering the vehicle correctly (I prefer the Historical Vehicle approach) the CDL becomes a non-issue. Unless, of course, you want or need one anyway. To register as an RV in CA can be tricky if the...

Rolf, I can't see what good they'd do one mine, so I suppose they could be for sale. Unless, of course, they're rusted in place.

You should be able to get a historical plate for it in CA...at least I got one for my '80 Pete years ago. The lady at the DMV didn't like it one bit, but couldn't stop it, either. Never got pulled over with that plate so I'm not sure what the result would've been, but the way the law read I was...

Forum newbie Hi all, Now that I joined Steel Soldiers, hopefully I'll find the time to read through at least some of all the good info posted in the forums. For now I'll be busy getting my "new" HMMH fully functional, once it arrives later this week. Then it seems like a near must to park it...
