SC will plate if the paperwork is complete. Guys in our local club (MVCSC) have over a dozen with regular plates on them. I do not own a HMMWV, all my stuff is two and a half ton size and I've never had a problem with the DMV.

62 inches from the front of the bed to the center of the axle on my generator trailer (which has the extra length on the back end).

It's both. A joint venture of MV's and the VA Offroad Jeep group. Held at the Graves Mountain Lodge and hosted by Cabell Garbee (cgarbee on Steelsoldiers) who can get you the proper paperwork to attend.

And I'm ahead of you by 5 months. As they say in Poland, "Sto Lat!" (may you live 100 years).

Get your PM done and then drive over to Syria, VA for the Labor Day Rally this fall.

Since you have the Federal Supply Service code for the correct paint color 33538, first 3 is for flat finish, second 3 is for yellow, and 538 is the shade, you should be able to go to most any paint retailer that has a computer with 'competitive paints' in their system. On the computer, have...

Story I was told is that the final assembly was done near Charlotte, NC and their acceptance test was to drive into the lake, go out 100 yards and return. More than half, according to the story, sank on the first try. Only privately owned one I saw had custom 2 x 8's on the sides of the...

M103 with a longer bed (10 ft instead of 9 ft). I've owned more than one, the one I'm keeping is be being converted into a bunk trailer.

116 is good for a single generator, the M103 type with a longer bed was used for the 'power unit' (IE 2 generators with the switch between them and the load).

Maximum loaded weight. The bridge number on the bridge is the maximum weight of any vehicle crossing over it in tons. If you are not carrying much in the way of cargo, you could probably use the empty weight. My shop vans run an '8' and the cargo trucks run a 7 or an 8, depending on what, if...

One of the guys at the Military Vehicle Collectors of SC.

NC and SC are probably different, but when I registered my deuces I took the ARMY number (which has numbers and letters and is at least 6 digits), the type (four digits) and the serial number (5 digits). Not a full 17 digits, but they put it in and the computer made a 17 digit VIN by adding one...

I know of a fellow in Columbia that has 'fixed up' a number of 802/803 units. He stays pretty busy, but, if you can't figure it out with the manuals he's only 100 miles away.

Chris, you are correct, those burners have been modified to run on propane! Jeep Stew, USB drives can be purchased at Walmart, Office Depot, and probably most drugstores or general merchandise stores. The smallest size anymore is probably 16 GB. Last pack (of five drives) I got from Office...

Jeep Stew, you might consider sending me a USB drive that will hold at least 8 GB and get the latest version of my "MKT Thumb Drive" data. There is a lot more on that compilation and the equipment TM's available here (I have the AR's, FM's, TC's, LO's, etc.) - links to civilian catalogs, the...

Chris has answered pretty much everything you need to know. Vinyl/Canvas roofs, walls and carry covers are HARD TO FIND and EXPENSIVE, but if you can find a boat canvas shop and some those items as patterns, you may be able to squeak by. I did not see a griddle in your pictures, or the three...

Looks like you should have available the following TM's, plus the higher echelon manuals in that series. TM 9-100-202-14, TM 9-1015-234-12, TM 9-1015-234-10, AND LO 9-1015-234-10 Depending on the distribution codes they may be available on the web, otherwise you will have to go through channels...

Well, if it's not one thing, it's ten new tyres!

Guyfang is correct. Examine the power cables and connectors on the MBU itself. That is where the problem is. If necessary, replace the wiring loom with one from another unit (preferably one that is being scrapped for other reasons).
