June 19th, 2021 Anyone who knows me knows that I don't much actually care for car shows, but I've attended the Sounds of Freedom car show in Layton, Utah several times before. However, this year I was doing so as part of my on-the-side home business...

Not all that exciting, but a little improvement. May 29th 2021 - June 04th, 2021 My brother bought a fancy battery tester and was showing it off to me so we tested all my batteries. The "front" battery in my deuce (where the positive lead attaches in the battery series) tested bad.. soo it was...

Seems like I'm always back filling the things I did with my deuce. Oh well. September 04, 2020 I used 'er for a trip to Burton Lumber in Salt Lake City (and Lowes in Bountiful, UT) to get some 12' redwood 4x4 posts, 10' 2x6s, 2x4s and about 70 2x2 balusters for a partial rebuild of the deck...

Thank you StrykerPerry for your insight! In your awesome YouTube videos I could clearly see the reinforced edge of the shelter with the threaded hole for those big bolts to secure the dolly "arms" (for lack of a better word) to the dolly. However, I didn't know about the shelter needing the...

Oh! So the shelter I posted above wasn't necessarily designed to be transported via dolly eh? Are these tabs that stick out points to bolt a dolly to, or tabs that simply rested on the top of the bed rail of, say, a deuce and a half?

I'm not sure you were replying to my question, but here was the dataplate pictures the seller provided of the M840 dolly local to me.

I should point out, in the TM 9-2330-275-14&P, on page 1-3, it DOES show an M840 with exactly the same "raised arms", but that only makes me more confused. Are those "arms" adjustable? Do they fold down or something? Because that doesn't explain why other's M840 dollies look different. The TM...

4 year old thread bump. There is an M840 dolly and, what appears to be, an S280 for sale locally to me. I've been trying to research the S840 dolly and understand the differences between it and other dollies, such as M720 displayed in the excellent Youtube videos by Stryker Perry: But most...

So the first, and likely oldest, bag in my post just above, has a large tear in the bottom, and the hook & loop is fairly worn, but it uses steel D-rings. The second bag above (Type IV) uses plastic rings and 4 of which are broken, but the vinyl seems to be in relatively good/great shape. Do...

I have recently came across two more LWCS camo nets (and a Type III NOS transport system, aka "burrito" bag), but I was intrigued that the bags were a bit different, in different ways -- I assume age and manufacturer. The first feels like the oldest style of vinyl, and reminds me of plucked...

You answered your own question there. The Monroe 37114 is readily available. They're even available on Amazon but I'd still call your local parts shop and compare prices. In September of 2017 I put Monroe Shocks #37114 on my M101A1 trailer. There's probably other shock sizes and part numbers...

I do have a new, in box, 24" bar that I'd sell, message me if interested. The internals were not designed to be adjusted. All internal components are hard mounted to the aluminum exterior with little rubber isolators to help with vibration. To aim the light, it was intended for the whole bar to...

Hello @KevinGaus ! On page 2 of this thread, in this post, I found my (I think they were 1/2") u-bolts from TNJ Murray (P/N: 11609677) but the link is now dead. Searching TNJ Murry for "u-bolt" it appears they have u-bolts for the LWS gun ring system, but I'm not sure of the outside diameter of...

Just reporting in this thread here too, that I had the privilege to see in person for the first time and follow Proud American on a 19+ mile Independence Day Utah MV convoy around Orem & Provo, UT. I've uploaded pictures here...

@papabear , I had the privilege to see in person for the first time and follow Proud American on a 19+ mile Independence Day Utah MV convoy around Orem & Provo, UT. I've uploaded pictures here: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/honoring-the-lord-and-nation.141749/post-2300900

Utah is rather dry, but it still rains and snows here. The humidity was probably less than 20% (it's currently only ~15%), just the way I like it. The temperature was about 68F in the morning in the low 90's by the afternoon. Very comfortable basically all day, but the UV index is high so wear...

July 04th, 2020, Independence Day My city canceled their Independence Day parade and instead held an ironically named "Freedom Drive" on a small loop around the town of only city first responders at the same time the regular parade should have been held. So instead I went south and finally got...

June 26th, 2020: I went and participated in flag bearing along the procession route to honor the final return trip of Airman 1Lt Kenneth "Kage" Allen, whose funeral was just last Saturday, July 4th, 2020. Total, from last recording Ending odometer: 3858.6 miles (+88.1 miles) Ending...

Back filling some truck usage here: Nov. 11, 2019 I once again took my truck to work for their Veteran's day flag raising ceremony. The WWII Jeep is owned by Chris D, and the last photo was right after he got done manually starting it. Ending odometer: ??? Ending hour meter: ...
