I am sorry for your loss I am hitting 42 years married to my wife this month and 57 years knowing her in September and can't imagine life without her.
I also just traded my 29 Ranger for a Bronco and do love the new ride but this is a much friendlyer forum In my opinion. A bunch of helpful...
Sometimes you just need something new my 2019 Ranger XLT has been fantastic but I also just let mine go. I traded mine for a 2022 2dr Bronco, I have been a Bronco fan for almost as long as I have loved pickups. But I got such a good deal I could not say no. You all have been great and will miss...
I replaced mine on my 19 XLT last fall because it had a factory battery in it and since I bought the truck last July was not sure how old it was, factory or a ford replacement. I put the next size up Diehard in. Growing up in Michigan winters, I never had an issue with Diehard batteries. I kept...
I Replaced the DPFE Sensor this past Saturday and it went very smoothly mainly thanks to you all that have posted your experiences doing this job before. So this is a big thank you for posting your advice and knowledge on what to expect and it was greatly appreciated. I went with the Rock Auto...
I have a Milwaukee cordless impact I carry when I go on trips, it will take the lug nuts off of a 10 tom Military truck (M984 HEMTT Wrecker) with lug torqued to 600 lb-ft. But all of my vehicles also carry 19mm deep well socket on a 24inch long breaker bar from Rural King, around $30 but worth...
While the scissors jack is not great but it is light years ahead of the bumper jacks that I grew up with. A bottle jack is a good alternative but will not always fit under a vehicle with a flat tire, not even under my old 74 F100, at least the scissors jack gets low enough to fit under our flat...
This my Malinios Bear going for her first ride in her Mom's Bronco. It has more backseat room than my Ranger so Bear now likes the Bronco better, even if she gets more rides in the Ranger.
I'm in Tennessee now so don't see many trucks with plow at all, but I grew up in Michigan and saw every kind of truck with a plow. One of the dealerships I worked at had a early Bronco half cab that we plowed the dealership lots with. My dad had a 72 Bronco that he plowed his driveway with for...
I work on Fort Campbell, KY as a civilian mechanic, we went to work on post after all the snow while the Army was tucked in warmly at home. Call out the Contractors
Loose the tire, it is not even safe as a spare. What if you need your spare again and that tire has to go back on the ground. Not worth your safety, your family s safety or the others on the same road as you when it fails.
I was sentenced to 6 1/2 years at Fort Leonard Wood in the 90s. I begged to go to Korea for years to get out of there. And I have a Missouri birth certificate. Its90 minutes from anywhere.
There is a place in Rolla MO that used to sell old military equipment but I haven't been there in 25 years so not sure now. Also there is a place on gov planet in Hopkinsville KY that I have seen recently that has trailers. But Fort Campbell has not processed out many trailers recently. I am on...
The trailer is a M1101 Humvee trailer, they come as the generator carrier model like yours and a cargo box version. The cargo comes in two weight ratings, M1101 and heavier rated M1102.
All you need to change the lights over to a 12 volt system is a new plug. Those military lights are 12-24 volt LEDs. Some of the current Army vehicles have 12 volt lights while most are 24 volts the LEDs make it easier on the supply system. I am sure about this because after I retired from the...
I have not had a cap on my trucks since the 70's, but they used to have a seal that went between the truck window and cap window. That would keep both windows clean and see through if they still make them.
