    Appropriate trailer to tow behind an M1008 and fair price to purchase

    I just sold my last 101A2 with fiberglass bows and cover and front and back doors with an MRAP toolbox on the front for $2,200. It looked nice behind the Lexus SUV that toweed it away. For a 1008 I would want the M101A2 because they have the same wheel lub pattern. The main difference that I...

    Hello from Oklahoma

    Welcome to the site. I got a chuckle out of the drain plug concern. Not a bad chuckle, just a reminder. That was a very common question back when I joined 18 years ago. As for painting, I've done a Deuce and a M813 with rattle cans from Rapco. Used 18 for the Deuce and 22 for the M813...

    My wife was with me in my Dodge the first trip and when we stopped at the church to drop off stuff she said the smell got her more than anything.

    Katrina Deuce Story - MUST READ

    The bane of anyone supporting websites. SSL Certs. I had to support a bunch for our Amazon Cloud service. Then they automated all ours using ACME. (Yes, it is just what the name says as you run headlong into a tunnel painted on a rock wall.) Back to Sarge. I recommend anyone that wants to...

    Model 28 Teletype

    We had some in my region of support when I worked for Harris Computer Systems Div in the 80s. I think ours had an adapter built into the Teletype itself and they had two ports on them. One a military style connector and the other an RS232C. Yes, the USB to RS232C will work off of a Raspberry...

    Blown Head Gasket Recovery (no longer) - Massive Engine Failure (!)

    I too have had an engine grenade on me. A Multifuel broke the crank in two and destroyed the block and it started righ up when I got it home. (Yes, I have a witness) It wasn't something you wanted to hear or see for that matter but it was interesting to see an engine with a two-piece crank...

    Blown Head Gasket Recovery (no longer) - Massive Engine Failure (!)

    I'm just curious, but did you share any of the information with the manufacturer? I live nearby by the plant and see it when I go up and down I75 frequently. Not that it would help you but maybe it might help them. IMHO

    M916 Novice!

    I just got a M915A1 a few months ago and drove it back to Dayton from Georgia. I just got my battery box the way I wanted it. Only had a ratchet strap holding the cover on and the batteries were cribbed in with blocks of wood.

    Teletypewriter

    Awesome find. They used them on ships as well on the floor model (not green). It is how we sent Telegrams back to the states. I had to go to the Comm Center and fill out a card to sent comms back to my wife. I had a floor model I picked up from one of my customers for quite a few years.
