Newb M105a2 recovery

[rogersn67]

Hi guys, been lurking here for years, but never joined the chat. Just got my first M105A2, picking it up in Maryland next week. I have several toys already (mostly Gensets) but what I really want is a M35. Just thought I would throw it out there that I will be going to Ft Meade and bringing the trailer back, if anyone in NJ needed anything picked up.

Welcome from the dark into the light. Best hopes for a boring recovery.

Thanks alot guys! I am hoping for no major issues... Have the 1 1/2 inch sockets ready as well as the new bearings if needed. Got the 16 lbs sledge to flip the Lunette... Addon trailer lights, and a whole crap load of other stuff. It is only about 200 miles, so, god willing, it will be here soon enough!
This is such a great site, you all seem like a great bunch!

How was Ft Mead with making an appointment for recovery? I'm waiting on EUC paperwork for a trailer there and wanted to know if they have any hours available outside of the work week M-F 8-5. ANy evening or weekends available that you know of?
Oh yeah - Pay your EZ pass before you go. Last time I took a trailer to NJ from MD it cost me a fortune in tolls!

No they havent done any weekend or after hour pick ups that I am aware of. I think the earliest appointment for pick up is 7:30 and the latest is 1:30. I am also not sure if the do pick ups on Mondays.

When I made the appointment, they told me ttuesday, wednesday, or friday... I can not remember the hours, but I think it was 8:30 to 4:30.
