    Data Plate spelled wrong!!??

    I have an unused CUCV MWO plate for the M1028A2 dually modification. The MWO plates for the A1/A2/A3 modifications have the "new" NSN for the truck (after the modification) printed on them. The one I have actually has the wrong NSN printed on it! :shock: That's something I really thought they...

    Hey guys/gals newb here

    After you do their "inspection" form, they give you the SF-97 ("Certificate to obtain title to a motor vehicle") from the government, but it's in their name. Thus, you should have them fill out and notarize a bill of sale for MA and pray that they DMV accepts both pieces and your paid invoice as...

    GSA Auction - 1955 Reo 6x6 with crane

    "DADDYDON" got it for $1295. I hope they're a collector.

    Hey guys/gals newb here

    Yes, for the most part. Check the titling policy under the help section on GL. Search the forums for "GL title" and you will find more than you want to know. Research what your state requires first. You might be able to get a truck for that money, but it'll need some work. Don't forget the bid...

    Charging gauge suddenly not working at all.

    I've never had to replace one, but according to the TM, there is a relay (somehwere under the dash?) that sends 28V to the gauge when the key is in the run position. It could be bad.

    Lots of Military Vehicles on GSA site in MO - ends Jan 15th

    The classified idea has some merit, but when you have 30 guys posting that they want an M813 in the mid-altantic, who do you notify first? Notify everyone? Talk about increasing competition! If the group consider themselves "friends", that's a hard thing to resolve. I don't feel that anyone...

    I don't want to see trucks go the scrap yard anymore than you guys do. I don't think any of us do. Unfortunately, I can't buy everything. So, I let my friends know about that stuff that they might not have seen and I cannot buy. If they can't buy it, maybe they tell a few other guys and that's...

    I don't think anyone is trying to be a jerk by notifying anyone else, in fact the intention is noble enough. The problem remains that by trying to help out someone who may have missed the listing, you could very well be hurting someone who already knew about it. Auctions are not secret just so...

    lacoda56: No need to apologize. You might have helped out someone who missed it. My only point was that you don't know if it was at the expense of someone who had not missed it. You never know... Katch1: It's a public forum and people can post what they wish. I am not naive enough to think that...

    This is a debate that happens over and over, but I have to say that I agree with Bruce on this. I too have only been in this game since 1999, but I am always amazed how many guys want to share auction information with the world, but only because they're not bidding. If you were bidding, your...

    M 911's at Chambersburg on sale

    That would explain it. Follow the money, I guess. Just like everything else in government... :roll:

    Charging gauge suddenly not working at all.

    Well, since diesel doesn't dry out very well it could still be a problem. Did you check the 28V fuse?

    GEN 1 Light and Heater switch

    I seem to remember seeing this on a truck before, but I can't recall if it was my truck or not. I'll have to check this weekend... Don't recall really fixing it... I'd check the belt tension first. They don't always make an audible squeal when slipping. If current is flowing through that light...

    M 911's at Chambersburg on sale

    I know the EPA is very "interested" in what gets spilled in the DRMO yards and watches them closely. That's why you see so many trucks with pans under the engines in GL pictures. If the trucks have small leaks and they let them leak into the soil, they are in deep doo-doo. I know farmers who...

    RE: M 911 They look exceptionally clean. I'd bet they all go over $30K. I'd love to have one.... :drool:

    Who makes a Jacobs-type engine brake for the 250 Cummins?

    CPL=Control Parts List. It should be on the engine tag. It determines what cam, IP, etc... your engine has. I have seen a few CPL's listed in GL auctions for NHC-250's and could not find those CPL's in the list on Jacobs' site, hence my earlier statement about not thinking they offered one...

    Taking the 5-ton CARCRUSHING!!!!

    Hopefully, it was not used in the commission of a crime and the evidence in now destroyed and useless... I have redneck tendencies and I did smile at the pics, but that does not mean I would have done it myself. Is it less of an eyesore now or does it reflect well now? No, you certainly didn't...
